Answer:

B. 45

Step-by-step explanation:

We can add the two possibilities of "success" {what we want to happen/what we are studying the likelihood of--in this case, technically rejection is the success, but that is very confusing}

12 + 28 = 40%

(40% of candidates are <em>not </em>rejected)

so, by finding 40% of 75, we can find how many candidates are likely to be accepted

[or, by finding 60% of 75, we can find how many will be rejected]

75 × 0.40 = 30 (30 candidates are not rejected)

75 - 30 = 45 (45 candidates are rejected)

{75 × 0.60 = 45 also}

Your grandparents invested $2,000 for you on the day you were born. How much will this investment be worth on your 25th birthday
algol [13]

We know that, Amount in Compound interest is given by :

\bigstar \ \ \boxed{\sf{Amount = Principal\bigg(1 + \dfrac{Rate \ of \ Interest}{100}\bigg)^{Time \ Period}}}

Given : Principal = $2000

Given : Annual yield is 5% and the interest is compounded quarterly

It means : Interest is compounded 4 times in a year

\implies \sf{Rate \ of \ Interest = \dfrac{R}{4} = \dfrac{5}{4}}

\sf{\implies Time \ period = (25 \times 4) = 100}

Substituting all the values in the formula, we get :

\implies \sf{Amount = 2000\bigg(1 + \dfrac{\dfrac{5}{4}}{100}\bigg)^{100}}

\implies \sf{Amount = 2000\bigg(1 + \dfrac{5}{400}\bigg)^{100}}

\implies \sf{Amount = 2000\bigg(1 + \dfrac{1}{80}\bigg)^{100}}

\implies \sf{Amount = 2000\bigg(\dfrac{81}{80}\bigg)^{100}}

\implies \sf{Amount = 2000 \times (1.0125)^{100}}

\implies \sf{Amount = 2000 \times 3.463}}

\implies \sf{Amount = 6926.8}
