To solve this, we are going to use the compound interest formula: A=P(1+ \frac{r}{n} )^{nt}
where
A is the final amount after t years.
P is the initial amount. 
r is the interest rate in decimal form.
n is the number of times the interest is compounded per year.
t is the time in years. 

We know from our problem that Jesse's decides to invest his income tax refund of $2300, so P=2300. We also know that the number of years is 3, so t=3. Since the interest was compounded semi-annually, it was compounded 2 times per year; therefore, n=2. Now, to convert the interest rate to decimal form, we are going to divide the rate by 100%
r= \frac{5.5}{100}
r=0.055
Now that we have all the values we need, lest replace in our formula:
A=P(1+ \frac{r}{n} )^{nt}
A=2300(1+ \frac{0.055}{2})^{(2)(3)}
A=2706.57

We can conclude that the value of the CD after 3 years of yielding an interest of 5.5% compounded semi-annually is 2706.57

The correct answer is 385

Step-by-step explanation

The table and the graph are two different linear functions

from table

The difference between two y values in table with increment of 1 in x value is 80.

y = 80\times x

From graph,

The difference between two y values in graph is 90 for increments of two.

For increments of one the difference will be \frac{90}{2}=45. So the function is,

y = 45x

When x = 11

The difference between the y values of two function is,

80\times 11-45\times 11=880-495=385

The answer is 385.

The difference between value of y at x=11 is 385, the correct option is third.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line which passing through two points is given below,

y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)

The two points from the table are (3,240) and (4,320), the equation is,

y-240=\frac{320-240}{4-3}(x-3)

y-240=\frac{320-240}{4-3}(x-3)

y-240=80(x-3)

y=80x-240+240

y=80x

Put x=11

y=80\times 11=880

Therefore according to the table the value of y is 880 at x=11.

The two points from the table are (2,90) and (4,180), the equation is,

y-90=\frac{180-90}{4-2}(x-2)

y-90=45(x-2)

y=45x-90+90

y=45x

Put x=11,

y=45\times 11=495

Therefore according to the table the value of y is 495 at x=11.

The difference between the values of y at x=11 is,

D=880-495=385

Therefore third option is correct.

Answer: 440 grams for 1.54 is the better value
Explanation:
Take the price and divide by the number of grams
1.54 / 440 =0.0035 per gram
1.26 / 340 =0.003705882 per gram
0.0035 per gram < 0.003705882 per gram

For 1 flavor there are 9 topping

Therefore, for 5 different flavors there will be 5*9 choices

No of choices= 5*9

=45

y=2x+15

where y=Value of coin

x=Age in years

Value of coin after 19 years=2*19+15

=$53

Therefore, Value after 19 years=$53
