Which of the given interest rates and compounding periods would provide the best investment?

5 1/4 % per year, compounded monthly

5 1/2 % per year, compounded semiannually

5% per year, compounded continuously

Answers

Answer 1

5.5% compounded monthly will be the best investment.

What is compound interest?

Borrowers are required to pay interest on interest in addition to principal since compound interest accrues and is added to the accrued interest from prior periods.

We know the formula for compound interest is,

A = P(1 + r/100)ⁿ.

Where, A = amount, P = principle, r = rate, and n = time in years.

Now the formula for compound interest compounded monthly is,

A = P(1 + r/100)¹²ⁿ as a year has 12 months.

The formula for compound interest compounded semiannually is,

A = P(1 + r/100)²ⁿ as there are two semi-annuals in a year.

The formula for compound interest compounded continuously is,

[tex]A = P(1 + r/100)^{5.5n}[/tex] as the rate of interest is 5.5%.

Now from all these A = P(1 + r/100)¹²ⁿ which is compounded monthly has the highest power hence it will be the best investment.

Jacob can wax 1/4 of the floor in 1 hour. Working together, Jacob and his younger brother can wax the entire floor in 40 minutes. How long would it take Jacob’s brother to wax the floor by himself?

Answers

Answer:

48 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Jacob can wax 1/4 of the floor in 1 hour so we need to find how much he can do in 40 minutes

Since 40 in 2/3 of an hour we multiply 1/4 by 2/3

1/4*2/3

2/12

1/6

Jacob can do 1/6 of the floor in 40 minutes so that means his brother can do 5/6 of the floor in 40 minutes

we need to find that 1/6 more of floor he needs to do by dividing 5/6 by 5 and 40 by 5

5/6/5

if sin α=1/3, pi/2 < α < pi and cos β = -1/3, pi < β < 3pi/2 find exact value of: (a) = (b) = (c) = (d) = (e)

Answers

The exact values of two trigonometric functions are listed below:

Case A:  - 2√2 / 3

Case B: - 2√2 / 3

Case C: 7 / 9

Case D: 4√2 / 9

Case E: ± √6 / 3

How to determine the exact values of the trigonometric functions

In this problem we have the exact values of two trigonometric functions, and of which we need to determine the exact value of a set of trigonometric functions of more complexity, each of which can be found by understanding the nature of the trigonometric functions and trigonometric formulas.

Case A - cos α:

Since sin α > 0 for π / 2 < α < π, then cos α < 0. Then, by the fundamental formula:

cos α = - √(1 - sin² α)

cos α = - √[1 - (1 / 3)²]

cos α = - √(8 / 9)

cos α = - 2√2 / 3

Case B - sin β:

Since cos β < 0 for π < α < 3π / 2, then sin β < 0. Then, by the fundamental formula:

sin β = - √(1 - cos² β)

sin β = - √[1 - (- 1 / 3)²]

sin β = - 2√2 / 3

Case C - cos 2α:

cos 2α = cos² 2α - sin² 2α

cos 2α = (- 2√2 / 3)² - (- 1 / 3)²

cos 2α = 7 / 9

Case D - cos (α + β):

cos (α + β) = cos α · cos β - sin α · sin β

cos (α + β) = (- 2√2 / 3) · (- 1 / 3) - (1 / 3) · (- 2√2 / 3)

cos (α + β) = 2√2 / 9 + 2√2 / 9

cos (α + β) = 4√2 / 9

Case E - sin (β / 2):

sin (β / 2) = ± √[(1 - cos β) / 2]

sin (β / 2) = ± √[[1 - (- 1 / 3)] / 2]

sin (β / 2) = ± √6 / 3

A shop sells bottles of mango juice for
£1.80, but will take 20% off the total
cost when you buy more than 20
bottles. How much does it cost, in
pounds (£), to buy 40 bottles of
mango juice?

Answers

It cost £57.6 pounds to buy a 40 bottles of mango juice after 20% discount.

What  is discount?

 The difference between the purchase price and the item's par value is the discount. Discounts are different types of price reductions or deductions from a product's cost. It is frequently employed in consumer transactions when consumers receive discounts on a range of goods. The % discount rate is provided.

Here the cost of one bottle mango juice is £1.80 .

Then cost of 20 bottles mango juice = 20*1.80 = £36.

Now here we can get 20% discount then ,

=> cost of 20 bottles - 20% of cost of 20 bottles

=> 36- 20% of 36

=>36- [tex]\frac{20}{100}[/tex]*36

=>36-7.2

=>£28.8

Now here we have to buy 40 bottles then,

Cost of 40 bottles after 20% discount = 2*28.8=£57.6

Hence cost of 40 bottles of mango juice is £57.6.

A 9ft ladder lens against the side of a house the bottom of the ladder is 6ft from the side of the house how high is the top of the ladder from the ground round the answer to the nearest tenth

Answers

Answer:

  6.7 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to know the height of a 9 ft ladder above the ground where it leans against a house, and its base is 6 ft from the house.

Pythagorean theorem

The Pythagorean theorem relates the side length of a right triangle. The geometry of this problem can be modeled by a right triangle with hypotenuse 9 ft and one leg 6 ft.

  a² +b² = c² . . . . sum of the squares of the legs is the square of the hypotenuse

  6² +b² = 9²

  b² = 81 -36 = 45

  b = √45 ≈ 6.708

The top of the ladder is about 6.7 feet above the ground.

answer is 3.2

We know that the problem we are going to be dealing with is an equation. The big question is, what should we do? What steps should be taken to get to the answer? There are several steps. One of them is expanding the equation. We can't solve until we expand the left side. So the way we're going to do it is: the distributive property. This one states that if you have an [tex]a[/tex] term multiplied by the sum of  [tex]b[/tex] and [tex]c[/tex] (the last two terms are in parentheses), then, in a sense, [tex]a[/tex] gets "distributed" and what results is this:

[tex]\darkblue{ab+ac}[/tex]. So now we apply that to our problem: [tex]8(4-a)=32-8a[/tex]. Now we make the replacement: [tex]32-8a=2a[/tex]. Then, notice that we have [tex]a[/tex] terms on both sides. What we do is we subtract [tex]2a[/tex] from the right and left and subtract [tex]32[/tex] from the left and add to the right: [tex]-8a-2a=-32[/tex]. Now let me share a little trick with you. First, we can add the [tex]a[/tex] terms together: [tex]-10a=-32[/tex]. Next, if you have minus signs on both sides, you clear them: [tex]10a=32[/tex]. Now divide both sides by 10. Here another trick comes into play: If you divide by 10 you move the decimal sign 1 place to the left.

[tex]a=3.2[/tex]

Now for the checking - put [tex]3.2[/tex] for [tex]a[/tex] and simplify. The answer should be a statement true for all values of [tex]a[/tex]. Let's go.

[tex]8(4-3.2)=2(3.2)[/tex]

[tex]8(0.8)=6.4[/tex]

[tex]6.4=6.4[/tex] is the result. Since the statement is true, we understand that the solution WAS correct and that [tex]3.2[/tex] IS the value of [tex]a[/tex] in the equation [tex]8(4-a)=2a[/tex].

An object was launched off the top of a building. The function f(x)=-16x^{2}+16x+96f(x)=−16x

+16x+96 represents the height of the object above the ground, in feet, xx seconds after being launched. Find and interpret the given function values and determine an appropriate domain for the function.

Answers

maximum height reached by the object is 100 feet.

Height of the building is 96 feet.

Appropriate domain is 0 ≤ x ≤ 3.

Given,

function for the height of the object above from ground is

[tex]f(x)=-16x^{2}+16x+96[/tex]

The domain can be determined for  x for which the value of f(x) = 0

Therefore, when [tex]-16x^{2}+16x+96=0[/tex], we get;

[tex]-16x^{2}+16x+96=0\\\\-16(x^2-x-6)=0\\\\x^2-x-6=0\\\\x^2+2x-3x-6=0\\\\(x+2)(x-3)=0\\\\x=-2 or x=3[/tex]

The minimum value of time, x is 0 and when x = 3, the object is on the ground.

Therefore;

The appropriate domain is 0 ≤ x ≤ 3

The maximum value of f(x) = a·x² + b·x + c, is given at [tex]x=-\frac{b}{2a}[/tex]

Therefore;

[tex]x=-\frac{16}{2*-16}=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Substituting 'x in f(x) we get,

[tex]f(1/2)=-16(\frac{1}{2} )^{2}+16(\frac{1}{2} )+96\\=-4+8+96=100[/tex]

The maximum height reached by the object,  = 100 feet

The height of the building is given when the time, x = 0, as follows;

Height of building, [tex]f(0)=-16(0)^{2}+16(0)+96=96[/tex] feet.

Hence, the appropriate domain of the function is  0 ≤ x ≤ 3.

A horizontal trough is 16 meters long, and its ends are isosceles trapezoids with an altitude of 4 m, a lower base of 4 m, and an upper base of 6 m. If the water is being poured into the trough at the rate of10 m³/min. How fast is the water level rising when the water is 2m deep?

Answers

For the volume of through, the rate at which the water level (the depth) is decreasing, increases as more water is drawn from the trough and the rate at which water is being drawn from the through is 0.28cm/min

Volume:

Volume refers the mathematical quantity that shows the amount of three-dimensional space occupied by an object or a closed surface.

Given,

A horizontal trough is 16 meters long, and its ends are isosceles trapezoids with an altitude of 4 m, a lower base of 4 m, and an upper base of 6 m.

Here we need to find the water level rising when the water is 2m deep if the water is being poured into the trough at the rate of10 m³/min.

While we looking into the given question we have identified that the values of length of the through, L = 16 m and the height of the through = 4 m

Lower base of the trapezoidal is a = 4 m

Upper base of the trapezoidal is b = 6 m

And the rate at which the water is decreasing at the depth of 3 m is 25 cm/min

Let us consider the length of the upper base at height is calculated as,

h = 4 + 2·x

So, the Volume of the through is,

=> Trapezoidal cross sectional area × Length

When we apply the value on the formula, then we get,

=> V = (4 + (4 + 2x)/2) x h

Now, if we include the water flow, then it can be written as,

=>  V = (4 + (4 + 2x)/2) x h x L

Apply the value of L as 16, then we get,

=>  V = (4 + (4 + 2x)/2) x h x 16

When we simplify this one then we get,

=> V = 8h (8 + 2x)

When we expand it then we get

=> V = 64h + 16hx

Here the value of x is  not given, however we can express x in terms of h from Figure 3 using

So, by using the similar Triangles concept, we can get the value f x as,

=> x/h=1/4

=> 4x=h

Therefore,  x = h/4

Now, Substituting x=h/4 into the Volume, V

=> V = 64h + 16h (h/4)

=> V = 64h + 4h²

When we differentiate this one, then we get,

=> dV/dt = 64 dh/dt + 8h dh/dt

Here we know that value of h=3m, dV/dt=25cm/min=0.25 m/min,

Then the equation is,

=> 0.25 = dh/dt (64 + 8 x 3)

=> 0.25 = 88 dh/dt

=> dh/dt = 0.002841m/min =0.28cm/min

Therefore, the rate is the water being drawn from the trough is 0.28cm/min.

What is an estimate?

An estimate is a rough calculation that gives a value that is close to the actual value.

a)The sales tax in her city = 9.05

The sales tax is approximately 10%

To convert 10% to fraction we have;

10% = 0.1

[tex]0.1 = \dfrac{1}{10}[/tex]

[tex]10\% = \dfrac{1}{10}[/tex]

b) The estimate sales tax that Felipa would pay on a dress of $95 can be found as follows;

10% of $95 is found as follows;

[tex]\dfrac{1}{10} \times \$95 = \$9.5[/tex]

10% of $9.5 is found as follows;

The estimate of her tax is $9.5

The actual amount she pays as tax is found as follows;

[tex]\dfrac{1}{10} \times \$9.5 = \$0.95[/tex]

0.0005 = [tex]\frac{5}{10000}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{5}{10000} \times \$95 = \$0.0475[/tex]

9.05% = 0.0905

If the population of the small town is currently 13,000 people, how
many years will it take for the population to reach 8,500 people?

Answers

Answer:

  10.4 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the population of a small town is initially 13000 and decreasing at the rate of 4% per year, you want to know the number of years it will take for the population to reach 8500.

Exponential decay

The equation for exponential decay is ...

  population = (initial population) · (1 - decay rate)^t

Application

Here, the initial population is 13000, the decay rate is 4%, and the population of interest is 8500. This gives an equation we can solve for t.

  8500 = 13000 · (1 -0.04)^t

  8500/13000 = 0.96^t . . . . . . . divide by 13000

  log(17/26) = t·log(0.96) . . . . . take logs

  t = log(17/26)/log(0.96) ≈ 10.408

It will take about 10.4 years for the population to reach 8500 people.

 4 years is the total years will take to reach 8500 people.

 Hence, The total is equal to 4 years.

What is exponential decay?

If a quantity is subject to exponential decay, it is declining at a rate proportionate to its current value.

Given the population of a small town is initially 13000 and decreasing at the rate of 4% per year, you want to know the number of years it will take for the population to reach 8500.

Exponential decay

The equation for exponential decay is ...

 population = (initial population) · (1 - decay rate)^t

Application

Here, the initial population is equal to 13000, the decay rate is equal to 4%, and the population of interest is 8500. This gives an equation we can solve for t.

 8500 =  13000 · (1 -0.04)^t

 8500/13000 = 0.96^t . . . . . . .

divide it by 13000

 log(17/26) = t·log(0.96) . . . . .

 take log

 t = log(17/26)/log(0.96) ≈ 10.408

 It will take about 10.4 years for the population to reach 8500 people.
