Answer:

  $359.42

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference in the investment values can be computed by making use of the formulas for the account balance in each case.

  compound interest: A = P(1 +r)^t . . . . interest at rate r compounded annually

  simple interst: A = P(1 +rt) . . . . simple interest at rate r

__

The account earning simple interest will have a balance of ...

  A = $8000(1 +0.12×3) = $10,880

The account earning compound interest will have a balance of ...

  A = $8000(1 +0.12)^3 ≈ $11,239.42

The difference between the two investments is ...

  $11,239.42 -10,880 = $359.42

The question is essentially asking who's equation works better (Part A) and to explain why (Part B). 
Marcella is suggesting the equation 6r + 12 = 683.88 
Julia is suggesting the equation 6(r + 12) = 683.88 

Six people are on the trip.
It is $12 PER person to rent a floatation device. 
The total cost of the trip was $683.88.

When making a book cover, Anwar adds an additional 20 square inches to the surface area to allow for overlap. How many square in
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

234 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Length of book, l=11 in

Width of book, w=8 in

Height of book, h=1in

Additional area required to overlap=20 square inches

We have to find how many square inches of paper to make  cover of one book.

We know that surface area of cuboid

S=2(lb+bh+hl)

Using the formula

Surface area of book

S=2(11\times 8+8\times 1+1\times 11)

S=214 in^2

Total paper used to make cover of one book

=Surface area of book +additional surface area

=214+20

=234in^2

Hence, Anwar will use paper to make cover of one book=234 square inches
