Answer:

$755.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Determine the compound amount first and then subtract the principal from it, to find the amount of interest.

The compound amount formula is A = P (1 + r/n)^(nt), where

P is the initial principal, r is the interest rate as a decimal fraction, n is the number of compounding periods per year, and t is the number of years. Here, P = $2179; t = 5 yrs; r = 0.06; and n = 4 (quarterly compounding).

We get:

A = $2179(1 + 0.06/4)^(4*5), or $2179(1.015)^20, or $2179(1.347) = $2937.80.

The compound amount is $2934.80. Subtracting the $2179 principal results in the interest earned: $755.80.

Triangles ΔABC ≅ ΔBAD so that C and D lie in the opposite semi-planes of segment AB. Prove that segment CD bisects segment AD.

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangles ΔABC and ΔBAD are congruent. So,

AB ≅ BA;
AC ≅ BD;
BC ≅ AD;
∠ABC ≅ ∠BAD;
∠BCA ≅ ∠ADB;
∠CAB ≅ ∠DBA.

Consider triangles AEC and BED. In these triangles,

AC ≅ BD;
∠EAC ≅ ∠EBD (because ∠CBA ≅ ∠BAD);
∠AEC ≅ ∠BED (as vertical angles).

So, ΔAEC ≅ ΔBED. Thus,

AE ≅ EB.

This means that segment CD bisects segment AD.

The number of cases of a new disease can be modeled by the quadratic regression equation y = –2x2 + 36x + 6, where x represents

nirvana33 [79]

Since x represents the year, year 15 will be 15 years.

Plug in "15" as your "x"

y = -2(15)^2 + 36(15) + 6

15^2 = 225 (Exponents come before multiplication)

y = -2(225) + 36(15) + 6

y = -450 + 540 + 6

y = 90 + 6

y = 96

<em>The answer is B</em>

Natalie is solving a problem. What are some steps she might take after reaching her solution?

Alekssandra [29.7K]

The answer is options C and D

When you are checking over your work and solution, you C) want to make sure you include the correct units so that the answer makes sense in the context of the question and D) see if the answer is reasonable. For example, if I say 2(3)+1=6839, does this make sense? No, especially because the numbers in the question are small integers and could not result in such a large value.

-E :)
