A construction crew is lengthening a road that originally measured 41 miles. The crew is adding one mile to the road each day. Let L be the length (in miles) after D days of construction.

Write an equation relating L to D. Then use this equation to find the length of the road after 14 days.

41 + (D x 1) = L

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the necessary equation to lengthen a road whose initial measure is 41 miles, knowing that a new mile is built every day, the following equation must be performed:

41 + (D x 1) = L

Thus, if 14 days had passed, the length of the journey would be determined as follows:

41 + (14 x 1) = L

41 + 14 = L

55 = L

Therefore, after 14 days, the road's length will be 55 miles.

the answer is 200

step-by-step explanation:

the way the question is worded, it seems to imply the $264 interest is simple interest, not compound interest.

the simple interest for 2 years is $264; the simple interest for 1 year is $132.

$132 interest on a $600 investment means an interest rate of (132/600)*100 = 22%.

the value of $200 at 22% interest compounded annually for three years is

200%281.22%29%5e3

the amount of interest is that value, minus the original $200.
