Isabel deposits $6,000 into an account that earns 1.5% interest compounded monthly. Assuming no more deposits and no withdrawals are made, how much money is in the account after 4 years?Compound interest formula:t = years since initial depositn = number of times compounded per yearr = annual interest rate (as a decimal)P = initial (principal) investmentV(t) = value of investment after t years

How would you describe the relationship between the real zeros and x-intercepts of the function ?

Question illustration
A
When you set the function equal to zero, the solution is x = 6; therefore, the graph has an x-intercept at x = 6.
B
When you substitute x = 0 into the function there is no solution; therefore, the graph will not have any x-intercepts.
C
Since there is an asymptote at x = 2, the graph will not have an x-intercept; therefore, the function will have no real zeros.
D
When you set the function equal to zero, the solution is x = 3; therefore, the graph has an x-intercept at x = 3.
