Suppose you deposit 900 dollars into a bank with 5% simple interest. The amount in the account after t years is given by A(t)=900(1.05)t (in dollars). 1. What is the average rate of change for the first year? Rate (in dollars per year): 900(1.05)-900
2. What is the average rate of change for the first five years? Rate (in dollars per year):
3. What is the average rate of change for the first ten years? Rate (in dollars per year):
4. Does the average rate of change increase or decrease as time from the initial deposit gets longer?

1. 45 dollars per year.

2. 49.73 dollars per year.

3. 56.6 dollars per year.

4. Increases

Step-by-step explanation:

Average rate of change

The average rate of change of a function over an interval [a,b] is given by:

In this question, we have that:

1. What is the average rate of change for the first year?

So

45 dollars per year.

2. What is the average rate of change for the first five years?

49.73 dollars per year.

3. What is the average rate of change for the first ten years?

56.6 dollars per year.

4. Does the average rate of change increase or decrease as time from the initial deposit gets longer?

From the previous items, it increases.

14

step-by-step explanation:

14 x 3 = 42

x ≥ 18 is your answer

step-by-step explanation:

let "a number" = x

(2/3)x + 17 ≥ 29

isolate the variable (x). do the opposite of pemdas (parenthesis, exponent (& root), multiplication, division, addition, subtraction).

first, subtract 17 from both sides.

(2/3)x + 17 (-17) ≥ 29 (-17)

(2/3)x ≥ 29 - 17

(2/3)x ≥ 12

next, multiply 3/2 to both sides to isolate the x

(3/2)(2/3)x ≥ 12(3/2)

x ≥ 12(3/2)

simplify. multiply, then divide

x ≥ (12 * 3)/2

x ≥ (36)/2

x ≥ 18

x ≥ 18 is your answer
