A person invests 3000 dollars in a bank. The bank pays 4.25% interest compounded semi-annually. To the nearest tenth of a year, how long must the person leave the money in the bank until it reaches 5600 dollars?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The person must leave the money for approximately 14.8 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be calculated using the formula for calculating the future value as follows:

FV = PV * (1 + r)^n …………………………………. (1)

Where;

FV = Future value of the investment = 5600

PV = Present value of the investment = 3000

r = semiannual interest rate = 4.25% / 2 = 0.0425 / 2 = 0.02125

n = number of semiannuals = ?

Substitute the values into equation (1) and solve for n, we have:

5600 = 3000 * (1 + 0.02125)^n

5600 / 3000 = 1.02125^n

1.02125^n = 1.86666666666667

Loglinearizing both sides, we have:

nlog1.02125 = log1.86666666666667

n = log1.86666666666667 / log1.02125

n = 0.271066772286539 / 0.0091320695404719

n = 29.6829509548973

Since n is number of semiannuals, we divide the answer by 2 obtain the number of years as follows:

Number of years = 29.6829509548973 / 2 = 14.8414754774487

Rounding to the nearest tenth of year, we have:

Number of years = 14.8

Therefore, the person must leave the money for approximately 14.8 years.

A painter leans a 30 foot ladder against one wall of a house. At what height
does the ladder touch the wall if the foot of the ladder is 10 feet from the base
of the wall?

Answers

Answer:

20ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The height at which the ladder touch the wall when the ladder is 30 feet long, and the ladder is 10 feet from the base of the wall is 20√2 feet.

What is Pythagoras Theorem?

If ABC is a triangle with AC as the hypotenuse and angle B with 90 degrees then we have:

[tex]|AC|^2 = |AB|^2 + |BC|^2[/tex]

where |AB| = length of line segment AB. (AB and BC are rest of the two sides of that triangle ABC, AC being the hypotenuse).

Consider the diagram below.

We've got:

Length of the ladder = |AC| = 30 ftDistance between ladder's bottom and base of wall = |BC| = 10 ftHeight of wall from base to the point where ladder touches = |AB| is to be known.

The wall is usually perpendicular to ground, therefore making 90° angle with it. Thus, ABC is a right angled triangle.

Using Pythagoras theorem in it, we get:

[tex]|AC|^2 = |AB|^2 + |BC|^2\\\\30^2 = |AB|^2 + 10^2\\|AB|^2 = 900 - 100\\\\|AB|^2 = 800\\\\\text{Taking sq. root of both the sides}\\\\|AB| = \sqrt{800} = \sqrt{ (\pm 20\sqrt{2})^2}\\\\|AB| = \pm 20\sqrt{2} \: \rm ft[/tex]

But as length cannot be a negative quantity, so we get:

[tex]|AB| = 20\sqrt{2} \: \rm ft[/tex]

Thus, the height at which the ladder touch the wall when the ladder is 30 feet long, and the ladder is 10 feet from the base of the wall is 20√2 feet.

1. How much is their bill after the coupon has been applied?
2. With the coupon applied, what is their new total (including the tax)?
3. With their new total, Billy and Tom can now determine the tip for their server. What is the final total, including the tip?
4. What will Billy and Tom each have to pay to split the bill evenly?

Please answer labeled with numbers! thankyou!

Answers

Answer:

1. $85

2. $90.10

3.$108.12

4.$54.06

Step-by-step explanation:

100-15=85 (15% of 100 is 15)

6 percent of 85 is 5.10. So 85 + 5.10=90.10

20 percent of 90.10 is 18.02. So add that to the total. 90.10+18.02=108.12

Now divide by 2 to get how much they each will pay 108.12/2 = 54.06

What is the value of value of 5/6 ÷ 3/4?​

Answers

Answer:

answer is 10/9

:-)))☺️☺️

I hope it helps you

Answer: 1 and 1/9

Step-by-step explanation: Here, we have 5/6 ÷ 3/4.

Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal.

In other words, we can change the division

sign to multiplication and flip the second fraction.

So here, 5/6 ÷ 3/4 can be rewritten as 5/6 × 4/3.

Now we're simply multiplying fractions so we multiply across the

numerators and multiply across the denominators.

So we have 5 × 4 which is 20 and 6 × 3 which is 18.

Notice that 20/18 is not in lowest terms so we divide the

numerator and the denominator of 20/18 by 2 to get 10/9.

If you would like, you can change this to the mixed number 1 and 1/9

by simply dividing 9 into 10 and putting the remainder over the denominator.
