If you had a nickel (.05 or five cents) that earned 100 percent interest each day or doubled in value each day. How much would you have after 10 days?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the initial amount of nickel is doubling in value each day, it means that the amount of nickel is increasing in geometric progression. The formula for determining the nth term of a geometric sequence is expressed as

Tn = ar^(n - 1)

Where

n represents the common ratio

a represents the first term of the sequence (initial amount)

n represents number of terms in the sequence (days)

r represents common ratio between consecutive terms(days)

From the information given,

r = 2

n = 10

a = 0.05

Therefore, for 10days, T10

T10 = 0.05 × 2^(10 - 1)

T10 = 0.05 × 2^9

T10 = 25.6

Answer 2

Answer:

Having a nickel doubled for 10 days gives 512 nickels, or 2560 cents.

Step-by-step explanation:

Having a nickel doubled in value each day for 10 days, we first write the amount of nickels we have in the first few days, inspect what pattern these numbers take, write a general formula for the sequence formed, and use the formula to find the 10th number easily.

For the first five days we have:

Day1: 1

Day2: 1 + 1 = 2

Day 3: 2 + 2 = 4

Day 4: 4 + 4 = 8

Day 5: = 8 + 8 = 16

...

This is a geometric progression, where the first term is 1, and the common ratio is 2.

The nth term is given as

Tn = ar^(n - 1)

Tn = 1 × 2^(n - 1)

= 2^(n - 1)

That is

Day n = 2^(n - 1)

Day 10 = 2^(10 - 1) = 2^9 = 512 nickels.

But because 1 nickels = 5 cents

512 nickels = 5 × 512 = 2560 cents.

Miguel’s savings account balance changed by -$48 over a year because a banking fee was withdrawn every month. He wants to find the monthly change to his account.

Answers

Answer:

-48 ÷ 12

Step-by-step explanation:

account balance changed over a year = -$48

In a year, there are 12 months. Above statement can also be written as

account balance changed in 12 months = -$48

we have to find monthly change, so we divide LHS and RHS by 12

account balance changed in 12 /12 months = -$48/12

Thus, account balance changed in 1 months = -$48/12

which is represented  option 4 i.e -48 ÷ 12

Quantity

Let cookies=y=3+x

Let candy=x

There are 3 more bag of cookies than candy sold

Total sales=price*quantity of x + price*quantity of y

40=12+4x+6x

40=12+10x

40-12=10x

Answers

Answer:

[tex]15516.3163[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]8500\cdot(1.034)^{18}=15516.3163[/tex]

If Levi invested $8,500 in an account paying an interest rate of 3.4% compounded continuously. Assuming no deposits or withdrawals are made, how much money, to the nearest ten dollars, would be in the account after 18 years will be $15,516

Using this formula

Amount=P(1+r)n

Where:

p represent principal=$8,500

r represent rate=3.4% or 0.034

n represent number of years=18 years

Let plug in the formula

Amount=$8,500(1+0.034)∧18

Amount=$8,500(1.034)∧18

Amount=$8,500(1.82544)

Amount=$15,516

Inconclusion if Levi invested $8,500 in an account paying an interest rate of 3.4% compounded continuously. Assuming no deposits or withdrawals are made, how much money, to the nearest ten dollars, would be in the account after 18 years will be $15,516

The function f(x) is shown in this graph please help because I can’t understand this concept

Answers

Answer:

d) the slope of f(x) is greater than the slope of g(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the slope of an equation, you look at its rise/run. for f(x), you can see that from one point (0, 3) to another (1, 1) it goes down 2 values (3 - 1) and over 1 value (0 + 1). because it goes down 2 values, the rise is -2, and because it moves to the side 1 value positively, the run is +1.

-2/+1 = -2. this means the slope of f(x) = -2.

finally, it says the slope of g(x) = -6, and -2 > -6. i hope this helps! :)

A large cheese pizza costs 18 dollars.. Each topping you add on costs $1.50
How much would it cost to get a large cheese pizza with c toppings added?
Write your answer as an expression.

Answers

Answer:

1.50c +18

Step-by-step explanation:

The constant price is 18 dollars, which never changes and for every topping you get, it costs $ 1.50. Since we don't know how many extra toppings are added we write 1.50c.  This shows that the price will be determined by the number of extra toppings added. If you got no toppings, sub in 0 for c to get $ 18 .

Answer:

1.50c+18

Step-by-step explanation:

The base price of the large cheese pizza is $18.  Since we don't know how many extra toppings are added we write 1.50c.  This shows that the price will be determined by the number of extra toppings added.  Since the question asked for an expression and not an equation, there is no equals sign.

Which situation below would represent a negative rate of change:

lunch. Let y represent the amount of money John has after x days in his school
account.
Judy is babysitting after school and charges $20 a day. Each day she gets paid, she
puts half of what she earns in a savings account. Let y represent the amount of
money Judy has in her bank account after x days.

Answers

Answer: John's situation

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an equation for each situation.

John’s situation:

The amount of money that John has (y) is equal to his school account (40) minus the product of the number of days (x) and the amount he spends per day( 3)

y =40-3x

As days pass by, John has less money (negative rate of change)

Judy's situation

The amount of money that Judy has in her savings account (y) is equal to the product of the number of days (x) and the amount he saves per day (20/2)

y = x (20/2)
