Alice wants to make a fruit salad using 10 pieces of fruit. She can buy three types of fruits at the supermarket: Apples (A), Ba

sasho [114]

Answer:

There is a total of 66 different fruit salads.

Step-by-step explanation:

One fruit salad differs from the other only in the amount of pieces of certain fruit put in it. In order to easier denote fruit pieces we introduce these notations:

A-how many apples are put into the salad;

B-how many bananas are put into the salad;

C-how many cranberries are put into the salad.

Since she can freely choose the number of pieces of each fruit, we have these conditions for the variables A, B and C:

$0\leq A\ ,\ 0\leq B\ ,\ 0\leq C$ (she cannot choose a negative number of pieces)
$\ A\ ,\ B\ ,\ C\ \leq 10$ (because she can get the total of 10 pieces of fruit)

Another condition for forming the salad is that the salad must consist of exactly 10 pieces of fruit, hence we have this equation to solve:

$A+B+C=10$

but we must obtain the non-negative integer solutions of this equation.

That is equivalent to calculating the number of r-combinations of the multi-set S with objects of k different types with infinite repetition numbers.

The formula for obtaining the number of such r-combinations is:

${r+k-1\choose r}={r+k-1\choose k-1}$

We have that $k=3$ and that $r=10$ and we can observe the repetition number as infinite since she can create a fruit salad with only one piece of fruit and the repetition number in such cases is the maximum 10. Finally, we have that the total number of fruit salads equals:

${10+3-1\choose 10}={12\choose 10}=\frac{12!}{10!\cdot (12-10)!}=\frac{12\cdot 11\cdot 10!}{10!\cdot 2!}=\frac{132}{2}=66$ .

Help please !! The graph of the invertible function f is shown on the grid below.

vivado [14]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

→ We go up the y axis to 6 and read of the x coordinate which is 4. This is because an inverse function does the the opposite i.e. if f ( x ) = y

f⁻¹ ( y ) = x.

1. You are saving to buy a new house in 7 years. If you invest $4,500 now at 5.5% interest compounded

motikmotik

Answer:

Part 1) $\$6,595.94$

Part 2) $\$3,449.23$

Part 3) $\$17,040.06$

Part 4) $\$20,773.90$

Part 5) The Option A is the best way to invest the money by $4,223.94 than Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1)

we know that

The compound interest formula is equal to

$A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}$

where

A is the Final Investment Value

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested

r is the rate of interest in decimal

t is Number of Time Periods

n is the number of times interest is compounded per year

in this problem we have

$t=7\ years\\ P=\$4,500\\ r=5.5\%=5.5/100=0.055\\n=4$

substitute in the formula above

$A=4,500(1+\frac{0.055}{4})^{4*7}$

$A=4,500(1.01375)^{28}$

$A=\$6,595.94$

Part 2)

we know that

The formula to calculate continuously compounded interest is equal to

$A=P(e)^{rt}$

where

A is the Final Investment Value

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested

r is the rate of interest in decimal

t is Number of Time Periods

e is the mathematical constant number

we have

$t=2\ years\\ P=\$3,200\\ r=3.75\%=3.75/100=0.0375$

substitute in the formula above

$A=3,200(e)^{0.0375*2}$

$A=\$3,449.23$

Part 3)

we know that

The compound interest formula is equal to

$A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}$

where

A is the Final Investment Value

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested

r is the rate of interest in decimal

t is Number of Time Periods

n is the number of times interest is compounded per year

in this problem we have

$t=18\ years\\ A=\$40,000\\ r=4.75\%=4.75/100=0.0475\\n=12$

substitute in the formula above

$40,000=P(1+\frac{0.0475}{12})^{12*18}$

$40,000=P(\frac{12.0475}{12})^{216}$

$P=40,000/[(\frac{12.0475}{12})^{216}]$

$P=\$17,040.06$

Part 4)

we know that

The formula to calculate continuously compounded interest is equal to

$A=P(e)^{rt}$

where

A is the Final Investment Value

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested

r is the rate of interest in decimal

t is Number of Time Periods

e is the mathematical constant number

we have

$t=7\ years\\ A=\$30,000\\ r=5.25\%=5.25/100=0.0525$

substitute in the formula above

$30,000=P(e)^{0.0525*7}$

$30,000=P(e)^{0.3675}$

$P=30,000/(e)^{0.3675}$

$P=\$20,773.90$

Part 5)

Option A

we know that

The compound interest formula is equal to

$A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}$

where

A is the Final Investment Value

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested

r is the rate of interest in decimal

t is Number of Time Periods

n is the number of times interest is compounded per year

in this problem we have

$t=8\ years\\ P=\$11,500\\ r=5.6\%=5.6/100=0.056\\n=2$

substitute in the formula above

$A=11,500(1+\frac{0.056}{2})^{2*8}$

$A=11,500(1.028)^{16}$

$A=\$17,889.07$

Option B

we know that

The formula to calculate continuously compounded interest is equal to

$A=P(e)^{rt}$

where

A is the Final Investment Value

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested

r is the rate of interest in decimal

t is Number of Time Periods

e is the mathematical constant number

we have

$t=5\ years\\ P=\$11,500\\ r=3.45\%=3.45/100=0.0345$

substitute in the formula above

$A=11,500(e)^{0.0345*5}$

$A=11,500(e)^{0.1725}$

$A=\$13,665.13$

Compare the options

Option A ------> $\$17,889.07$

Option B -----> $\$13,665.13$

so

Option A > Option B

Find out the difference

$\$17,889.07-$13,665.13=$4,223.94$

therefore

The Option A is the best way to invest the money by $4,223.94 than Option B
