Concept explainers
Level curves of a savings plan Suppose you make monthly deposits of P dollars into an account that earns interest at a monthly rate of p%. The balance in the account after t years is
a. With a target balance of $20,000, find the set of all points (P, r) that satisfy B = 20,000. This curve gives all deposits P and monthly interest rates r that result in a balance of $20,000 after 20 years.
b. Repeat part (a) with B = $5000, $10,000, $15,000, and $25,000, and draw the resulting level curves of the balance function.

- Table 6 shows the year and the number ofpeople unemployed in a particular city for several years. Determine whether the trend appears linear. If so, and assuming the trend continues, in what year will the number of unemployed reach 5 people?arrow_forwardFlood Control A river is 8 feet above its flood stage. The water is receding at a rate of 3 inches per hour. Write a mathematical model that shows the number of feet above flood stage after t hours. Assuming the water continually recedes at this rate, when will the river be 1 foot above its flood stage?arrow_forwardFuture Value In certain savings scenarios, the value F of an investment after t years, the future value, is given by F=P1+rt. Here r is the yearly interest rate as a decimal, P is the amount of the original investment and t is the term of the investment. If we invest 1000 at an interest rate of 0.06 per year as a decimal, and if the term of the investment is 5 years, what is the future value?continuedarrow_forward
