Answer: in explination

Step-by-step explanation:

annual interest = .05(4000) = 200

to double, you need another $4000

number of years = 4000/200 = 20

annual interest = .05(4000) = 200

to double, you need another $4000

number of years = 4000/200 = 20

it will take 20 years

to check if you are right you would...

Check:

simple interest on $4000 for 20 years at 5%

= .05(20)(4000) = 4000

the amount = what we had + new amount

= 4000 + 4000 = 8000 which is double what we started with

So the answer would be it took 20 years.

What is the average score of runa 140,96 and 13?

scoundrel [369]

$\huge\textsf{Hey there!}$

$\large\textsf{Formula:}$

$\mathsf{\dfrac{Sum\ of\ all\ terms}{Total\ number\ of\ values\ in\ the\ data}= your\ mean/average}$

$\mathsf{\dfrac{140+96+13}{3}}$

$\mathsf{140+36+13}$

$\mathsf{140 + 96 = \bf 236}$

$\mathsf{236 + 13}$

$\mathsf{ = \bf 249}$

$\mathsf{\dfrac{249}{3}}$

$\mathsf{= \bf 83}$

$\boxed{\boxed{\large\textsf{Possible answer: \huge \bf 83}}}\huge\checkmark$

$\large\textsf{Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your your day!}$

What is the slope of line segment AB?<br> A) 2/3<br> B) 3/4<br> C) 4/3<br> D) -3/4

Lunna [17]

For this case we have that by definition, the slope of a line is given by:

$m = \frac {y_ {2} -y_ {1}} {x_ {2} -x_ {1}}$

Where:

$(x_ {1}, y_ {1})$ and $(x_ {2}, y_ {2})$ are two points through which the line passes.

According to the image we have:

$(x_ {1}, y_ {1}): (-5,3)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}): (3, -3)$

Substituting we have:

$m = \frac {-3-3} {3 - (- 5)} = \frac {-6} {3 + 5} = \frac {-6} {8} = - \frac {3} {4}$

Thus, the slope of the line is:

$m = - \frac {3} {4}$

Answer:

$m = - \frac {3} {4}$
