GIVEN:
We are given the details of an investment as follows;
Initial investment = $19,400
Interest rate = 3.16%
Period of investment = 9 years and 6 months
Required;
To use the information given to calculate
(a) The maturity value at the end of the term
(b) The amount of compound interest earned.
Step-by-step solution;
The formula applied in calculating the maturity value is as follows;
[tex]A=P(1+r)^t[/tex]Where the variables are;
[tex]\begin{gathered} A=Maturity\text{ }value \\ \\ P=Initial\text{ }investment\text{ }(19400) \\ \\ r=rate\text{ }of\text{ }interest\text{ }(0.0316) \\ \\ t=time\text{ }in\text{ }years\text{ }(9.5) \end{gathered}[/tex]However, for an investment whose interest is compounded at different intervals within 1 year, the formula becomes modified as shown below;
[tex]A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{tn}[/tex]Where the variable n is the number of times interest is compounded annually. For an investment whose interest is compounded quarterly, that is, four times a year, the formula becomes;
[tex]A=P(1+\frac{r}{4})^{4t}[/tex]We can now calculate as follows;
[tex]\begin{gathered} A=19400(1+\frac{0.0316}{4})^{4\times9.5} \\ \\ A=19400(1+0.0079)^{38} \\ \\ A=26161.6208681 \\ \\ A\approx26161.62 \end{gathered}[/tex]We can now determine the amount of compound interest earned by deducting the initial amount invested from the maturity value. Thus we have;
[tex]\begin{gathered} Interest=A-P \\ \\ Interest=26161.62-19400 \\ \\ Interest=6761.62 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore,
ANSWER:
[tex]\begin{gathered} Maturity\text{ }value=26,161.62 \\ \\ Interest=6,761.62 \end{gathered}[/tex]Parts of a CircleFor this assignment, you will draw and label the parts of a circle.

The equation of the line in fully simplified slope intercept form is y = -5x + 8.
From the graph:
Take any two points:
suppose (1,3) and (2,-2)
slope m = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1
= -2 - 3 / 2 - 1
= -5/1
= -5
substitute m and (1,3) in y = mx + c
3 = -5*1 + c
3 = -5 + c
c = 3+5
c = 8
y = mx+c
y = -5x + 8.

Explanation:
When we dilate a point by a scale factor "a" and the center of the dilation is the origin, the original point (x,y) changes as follows:
[tex](x,y)\rightarrow(ax,by)[/tex]Each coordinate value is multiplied by the scale factor.
In this case, the scale factor is 1/2:

. Noah may choose between two accounts in which to invest $4000. Account A offers 2.2% annual interest
compounded monthly. Account B offers continuous compound interest. Noah plans to leave his investment
untouched (no further deposits and no withdrawals) for 15 years.
(a) Which account will yield the greater balance at the end of 15 years?
(b) How much more money does Noah earn by choosing this more profitable account?
Answer:
Using the compound amount formula, account B will yield the greater balance at the end of 15 years and Noah earn $4 more money by choosing this more profitable account.
In the given question,
Noah may choose between two accounts in which to invest $4000.
Principal Amount(P) = $4000
Account A offers 2.2% annual interest compounded monthly.
Rate(r) = 2.2% = 0.022
In a year have twelve month so n=12
Account B offers continuous compound interest.
Noah plans to leave his investment untouched for 15 years.
Time(t) = 15
Formula for amount after t years = P(1+ r/n)^nt
Amount after 15 years = 4000(1+ 0.022/12)^12*15
Simplifying
Amount after 15 years = 4000(1+0.00183)^180
Amount after 15 years = 4000(1.00183)^180
Amount after 15 years = 4000*1.39
Amount after 15 years = $5560
Account B offers compounded continuously.
So formula used = Pe^(rt)
Amount after 15 years = 4000*e^(0.022*15)
Amount after 15 years = 4000*e^(0.33)
Amount after 15 years = 4000*1.391
Amount after 15 years = $5564
(a) We have to find which account will yield the greater balance at the end of 15 years.
As we can see in Account A amount after 15 years is $5550 and in Account B amount after 15 years is $5564.
So account B will yield the greater balance at the end of 15 years.
(b) We have to find how much more money does Noah earn by choosing this more profitable account.
Noah earn money more by profitable account=Account B amount-Account A amount
Noah earn money more by profitable account=$5564-$5560
Noah earn money more by profitable account=$4

The triangles ABC and JGH are similar figures.
For two figures to be simmilar, the coresponding angles must be congruent and the corresponding sides must be proportional.
For these triangles:
The corresponding sides of the simimilar figures are proportional, you can express this as:
[tex]\frac{JH}{AC}=\frac{JG}{AB}=\frac{GH}{BC}[/tex]This expression indicates that the proportion between the corresponding sides is the same for all three pairs of sides. Using this information, we can determine the value of side GH
The proportion between the corresponding sides of the triangles is:
[tex]\frac{JH}{AC}=\frac{5.8}{11.6}=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]Now calculate GH as:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{GH}{BC}=\frac{1}{2} \\ \frac{x}{6}=\frac{1}{2} \\ x=(\frac{1}{2})\cdot6 \\ x=3 \end{gathered}[/tex]Now the corresponding angles of the similar figures must be congruent, i.e. have the same measure so that:

Answer
a) g(-8) = 17
b) When g(x) = -7, x = 8
c) When f(x) = g(x), x = (2/3)
d) When f(x) = h(x), x = (1/20)
e) x-intercept of h(x) = (7/16)
Explanation
f(x) = 9x - 2
g(x) = 5 - 3x/2
h(x) = 4x - 7/4
(a) Find g(-8).
g(x) = 5 - 3x/2
g(-8) means the value of g(x) when x = -8
g(-8) = 5 - [3×-8/2]
= 5 - (-12)
= 5 + 12
= 17
(b) Find the value of x that makes g(x) = -7.
g(x) = 5 - 3x/2
When g(x) = -7,
5 - 3x/2 = -7
5 - (3x/2) - 5 = -7 - 5
-(3x/2) = -12
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{-3x}{2}=-12 \\ \text{Cross multiply} \\ -3x\text{ = 2}\times-12 \\ -3x\text{ = -24} \\ \text{divide both sides by -3} \\ \frac{-3x}{-3}=\frac{-24}{-3} \\ x\text{ = 8} \end{gathered}[/tex](c) Find the value of x that makes f(x) = g(x).
f(x) = 9x - 2
g(x) = 5 - 3x/2
When f(x) = g(x)
9x - 2 = 5 - (3x/2)
9x + (3x/2) = 5 + 2
(21x/2) = 7
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{21x}{2}=7 \\ \text{Cross multiply} \\ 21x\text{ = 2}\times7 \\ 21x=14 \\ \text{Divide both sides by 21} \\ \frac{21x}{21}=\frac{14}{21} \\ x=\frac{14}{21}=\frac{2}{3} \end{gathered}[/tex](d) Find the value of x that makes f(x) = h(x)
f(x) = 9x - 2
h(x) = 4x - 7/4
When f(x) = h(x)
9x - 2 = 4x - (7/4)
9x - 4x = 2 - (7/4)
5x = (1/4)
[tex]\begin{gathered} 5x=\frac{1}{4} \\ \text{Divide both sides by 5} \\ \frac{5x}{5}=\frac{1}{4\times5} \\ x\text{ =}\frac{1}{20} \end{gathered}[/tex](e) Find the x-intercept of h(x).
h(x) = 4x - 7/4
The x-intercept is the value of x when h(x) = 0
When h(x) = 0
4x - (7/4) = 0
4x = (7/4)
[tex]\begin{gathered} 4x=\frac{7}{4} \\ \text{Divide both sides by 4} \\ \frac{4x}{4}=\frac{7}{4\times4} \\ x=\frac{7}{16} \end{gathered}[/tex]Hope this Helps!!!

To find the midrange, calculate the mean between the minimum and maximum numbers of the data set:
[tex]\frac{4+15}{2}=9.5[/tex]The mode is the value that appears most frequently in the data set. In this case, the number 15 appears three times and the rest just 1. Then, the mode is 15.
Therefore, the answers are:
Mean: 10.3
Median: 11
Midrange: 9.5
Mode: 15
Which equation represents a line which is parallel to y=0?A. x=1B. y=x+3C. y=xD. y=6
ANSWER
D. y = 6
EXPLANATION
Parallel lines have the same slope.
In this problem, the given line is y = 0, which is a horizontal line at y = 0. Because it is a horizontal line, its slope is 0. From the options, we have to find which line has a slope of 0.
• Option A: x = 1 is a vertical line passing through x = 1. Its slope is undefined → ,not parallel,.
,• Option B: the slope of this line is 1 → ,not parallel.
,• Option C: the slope of this line is also 1 → ,not parallel.
,• Option D:, y = 6 is also a horizontal line, so its slope is 0 → ,this line is parallel ,to the given line.
