Paige borrows $4000 at an interest rate of 12% per year what is the amount due at the end of 3 years

For this case we have an equation of the form:

Where,

A: initial loan

b: interest rate

x: number of years

Substituting values we have that the function that models the problem is:

By the end of the third year we have:

the amount due at the end of 3 years is:

fist on the left goes with the third on the right. second on the left goes with the fourth on the right. third on the left goes with the second on the right. the fourth on the left goes with first on the right

b. 6

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the table representing an exponential function.

we can see from the table that, as x is increasing, the value of y is increasing in the power of 6.

i.e. the following relation is obtained,

x = 1, y = 6

x = 2, y = 36 =

x = 3, y = 216 =

x = 4, y = 1296 =

x = 5, y = 7776 =

so, the geometric series obtained is .

thus, the common ratio is given by = = 6.

hence, the common ratio is 6.
