You rent an apartment that costs $800 per month during the first year, but the rent is set to go up 12.5% per year. What would be the rent of the apartment during the 10th
year of living in the apartment? Round to the nearest tenth (if necessary).

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions

3 is greater then both of those numbers

the formula of a slope:

we have the points (-2, 7) and (2, 3). substitute:
