Answer:

y+5=\frac{9}{8}(x-9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Point slope form is: y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

'm' - slope

(x1, y1) - point

We are given the slope of 9/8 and the point of (9, -5).

Replace 'm', 'x1', and 'y1' with the appropriate values.

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\rightarrow\boxed{y+5=\frac{9}{8}(x-9)}

Answer: y+5 = 9/8(x-9)

Step-by-step explanation: Point-slope form is written in y-y1 = m(x-x1) so when you put in (9,-5) in the y1 and x1 spots and substitute the slope 9/8 in for m you get the point-slope form.

What interest will be earned if $6300 is invested for 3 years at 12% compounded monthly?  Write your answer rounded to the neare
Butoxors [25]
Answer:
Interest earned = 2713.8

Explanation:
We will solve this problem on two steps:
1- get the final amount after three years
2- get the interest earned by subtracting the initial amount from the final one.

1- getting the final amount after 3 years:
The formula that we will use is as follows:
A = P (1 + r/n)^(nt)
where:
A is the final amount we want to calculate
P is the initial amount = 6300
r is the interest = 0.12
n is the number of compounds per year =12
t is time in years = 3

Substitute to get the final amount:
A = P (1 + r/n)^(nt)
A = 6300 (1 + 0.12/12) ^ (12*3)
A = 9013.8

2- getting the interest earned:
Interest earned = final amount - initial amount
Interest earned = 9013.8 - 6300
Interest earned = 2713.8

Hope this helps :)

A sailboat is sitting at rest near its dock. A rope attached to the bow of the boat is drawn in over a pulley that stands on a p
irina [24]

Answer:

The boat is approaching the dock at rate of 2.14 ft/s

Step-by-step explanation:

The situation given in the question can be modeled as a triangle, please refer to the attached diagram.

A rope attached to the bow of the boat is drawn in over a pulley that stands on a post on the end of the dock that is 5 feet higher than the bow that means x = 5 ft.

The length of rope from bow to pulley is 13 feet that means y = 13 ft.

We know that Pythagorean theorem is given by

x^{2} + y^{2} = z^{2}

Differentiating the above equation with respect to time yields,

2x\frac{dx}{dt}  + 2y\frac{dy}{dt} = 2z\frac{dz}{dt}

x\frac{dx}{dt}  + y\frac{dy}{dt} = z\frac{dz}{dt}

dx/dt = 0  since dock height doesn't change

y\frac{dy}{dt} = z\frac{dz}{dt}

\frac{dy}{dt} = \frac{z}{y} \frac{dz}{dt}

The rope is being pulled in at a rate of 2 feet per second that is dz/dt = 2 ft/s

First we need to find z

z² = (5)² + (13)²

z² = 194

z = √194

z = 13.93 ft

So,

\frac{dy}{dt} = \frac{z}{y} \frac{dz}{dt}

\frac{dy}{dt} = \frac{13.93}{13}(2)

\frac{dy}{dt} = 2.14 ft/s

Therefore, the boat is approaching the dock at rate of 2.14 ft/s
