A savings account has an initial balance of $1,000 and earns 3 percent interest compounded monthly. Is the balance of the account described by a linear or exponential function?

answer: bearing in mind that a rectangle has a perimeter of length + length + width + width.

step-by-step explanation:

p = perimeter

l = length

x=width

p = 2l + 2x

p = 2(l+x)     < ==== perimeter of the base of the box.

step-by-step explanation:

answer is 17

the equation of the parabola is y2=12x

explanation:

the vertex is midway between the focus ad the directrix

so, the vertex is (0,0)

let p=(x,y) be a point on the parabola.

the distance of p from the directrix is equal to the distance from the focus.

x+3=√(x−3)2+(y−0)2

(x+3)2=(x−3)2+y2

x2+6x+9=x2−6x+9+y2

y2=12x
