Answer 1

Answer: C) You choose account #2

===================================================

Explanation:

Let's compute the final balance for account 1.

We'll use the compound interest formula

A = P*(1+r/n)^(n*t)

where,

P = principal or amount depositedr = decimal form of the annual interest raten = number of times we compound the interest per yeart = number of years

where in this case

P = 10,000r = 0.035 n = 4 t = 10

So with all that in mind, we get

A = P*(1+r/n)^(n*t)

A = 10,000*(1+0.035/4)^(4*10)

A = 14,169.0883793113

A = 14,169.09

Account #1 gets us $14,169.09 which is over our goal of $14,000

--------------------------

Let's repeat this idea for account 3. I'll get back to account 2 in the next section.

For account 3, we have these inputs

P = 10,000r = 0.032n = 1t = 10

leading to...

A = P*(1+r/n)^(n*t)

A = 10,000*(1+0.032/1)^(1*10)

A = 13,702.4104633564

A = 13,702.41

This isn't larger than 14,000. So we cannot use account 3. The interest rate is too small and needs to be bumped up.

--------------------------

Now let's compute account 2. We'll use the continuously compounded interest formula which is

A = P*e^(rt)

The P, r and t are the same as before. The 'e' is a constant and it's roughly e = 2.718... similar to how pi = 3.14... approximately.

I recommend using the calculator's stored value of 'e' to get as much accuracy as possible.

So,

A = P*e^(rt)

A = 10,000*e^(0.036*10)

A = 14,333.2941456052

A = 14,333.29

This exceeds 14,000 so we can use this account.

Comparing this to account 1's value (14,169.09), we can see that account 2 gets us the most money over the 10 year time period. Not only does account 2 have the higher interest rate, but it also has an infinitely higher compounding frequency as well. These two factors help contribute as to why account 2 beats out account 1.

This is why we should go for account 2.

Write the area A of an equilateral triangle as a function of the length s of its sides.

STEP 1: Find the base of the equilateral triangle in terms of s.

STEP 2: The height of an equilateral triangle can be found via the Pythagorean theorem. Use this information to find h in terms of s.

Answers

Write the area A of an equilateral triangle as a function of the length s of its sides. Draw the triangle; label each side "2s". Draw the altitute; it will bisect the base into s and s. ... Therefore, the area is equal to the measure of the bisected side times the measure of the altitude, quantity divided by 2.

HOPE SO IT HELPS YOU

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

Each side including     the base is s.

Part B

Use 1/2 the base to find the height. The height meets the base at 90 degrees which gives you the right to use c^2 = b^2 + a^2

The hypotenuse is s

The base is 1/2s

h^2 = s^2 - (1/2s)^2

h^2 = s^2 - 1/4 s^2

h^2 = 3s^2/4

h = sqrt(3)/2 *s

Area = 1/2 * s * sqrt(3)/2 s

Area = 1/4 * s^2 * sqrt(3)

b) The price of a radio is marked as Rs 7,500. If the shopkeeper allows 20 % discount and adds 13 % VAT, how much will a customer pay for the radio?​

Answers

Answer:

the customer should pay Rs.6780 including VAT.

Step-by-step explanation:

here,

Marked price(MP)=7500

Discount(D)=20%

VAT=13%

now,

selling price(SP)=MP-D%of MP

=7500-20×7500/100

= 7500-1500

= Rs 6000

again,

SP with VAT = SP +VAT of SP

= 6000+13×6000/100

=6000+780

=Rs.6780

hence,

the customer should pay Rs. 6780 including VAT.

Determine the 3 digit chopping and rounding approximately of the number 0.9

Answers

Answer:

We want to "chop and round" the periodic number 0.9 at 3 digits.

First, remember that we can write our periodic number as:

0.9 = 0.9999...

Such that the nine repeats infinitely.

Now we want to chop it at the third digit, and then round.

To chop at the third digit we just "cut" the number at the third digit after the decimal point, we will get:

0.9 ≈ 0.999

Now we round.

Remember that to round a number, we need to look at the last digit after the decimal point.

If the last digit is 5 or larger, we round up, adding 1 to the previous decimal.

If the last digit is 4 or smaller, we round down, don't adding anything to the previous decimal.

in our number:

0.999

The last digit is a 9, so we round up.

Then we add "1" to the previous decimal

but the previous decimal is a 9, so when we add 1, it will transform into a 10.

So it also adds one to the previous decimal, which also is a 9, so the process repeats, this time adding 1 to the decimal to its left, in this case, that decimal will be the first decimal at the left of the decimal point.

So after rounding, we will get:

0.999 ≈ 1

Then we can conclude that:

he 3 digit chopping and rounding approximately of the number 0.9 is 1"

[?]

Answers

Answer:

1/36

Step-by-step explanation:

it is the exact same as if both your dice had the numbers {1,2,3,4,5,6}

you said the SUM of the dice that is indicates the answer of the addition of two (or for that matter more) numbers,... the only numbers that would sum 2 is 1+1,... and because you only have two ones (one per die) the answer is the same as if they where die with normal numbers,...

The probability of rolling a sum of 2 with these dice is 1/36.

What is the probability?

Probability refers to a possibility that deals with the occurrence of random events.

The probability of all the events occurring need to be 1.

The formula of probability is defined as the ratio of a number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes.

P(E) = Number of favorable outcomes / total number of outcomes

We are given that;

Pair of dice have= {1,2,2,3,3,4}

Now,

The probability of rolling a sum of 2 with two dice is the same as the probability of rolling snake eyes, since the only way to get a sum of 2 is if both dice show a 11. The probability of rolling a 1 on a single die is 1/6, so the probability of rolling a 1 on both dice is (1/6) × (1/6) = 1/3612.

However, in this case, the dice are not standard six-sided dice, but have different numbers on their faces. The first die has {1,2,2,3,3,4} and the second die has {1,3,4,5,6,8}. The probability of rolling a 1 on the first die is still 1/6, but the probability of rolling a 1 on the second die is also 1/6. Therefore, the probability of rolling a sum of 2 with these dice is still (1/6) × (1/6) = 1/36.

This probability cannot be reduced any further, since 1 and 36 have no common factors other than 1.

Therefore, the probability will be 1/36.

Step-by-step explanation:

first we need to find where is the base, and height, for this case, the trian is the base, not the rectangle, so it maybe eas if you draw a upright angle os the shape, with the triangle facing down.

As show you need to have bare and height for the volume of the prism, which we already know the height is 25 (h=25) so now we need to find the base.

for the base, since it’s a triangle, which has the area formal of 1/2(bh), so now just plot the number in, 1/2x10x8= 40 cm^2

now using the volume of prism formal; V = bh = 40 x 25 = 1000 cm^3
