The amount of interest that the principal in each account had earned is as follows:

Raul Avila = $167.12

Samuel Griffin = $364.91

<h3>How is compound interest computed?</h3>

The compound interest can be calculated using the compound interest formula:

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

A = final amount

P = initial principal balance

r = interest rate

n = number of times interest applied per time period

t = number of time periods elapsed

It can also be computed using an online finance calculator as follows:

<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3><h3>Raul Avila:</h3>

N (# of periods) = 110 days

I/Y (Interest per year) = 5.5%

PV (Present Value) = $10,000

PMT (Periodic Payment) = $0

<u>Results:</u>

FV = $10,167.12

Total Interest = $167.12

<h3>Samuel Griffin:</h3>

N (# of periods) = 120 days

I/Y (Interest per year) = 5.5%

PV (Present Value) = $20,000

PMT (Periodic Payment) = $0

<u>Results:</u>

FV = $20,364.91

Total Interest = $364.91

Thus, using the online finance calculator, the compound interests for each principal have been computed as $167.12 and $364.91, respectively.

Solve for x in simmilar triangles connected

amid [387]

Step-by-step explanation:

You can figure out the missing side length by using proportions because the corresponding side lengths form a proportion. Let's write ratios that form a proportion and find the pattern to figure out the length of the missing side. Looking at this you can see the pattern

During a rock concert, the noise level (in decibels) in front row seats has a mean of 92 dB with a standard deviation of 9 dg_ W

rodikova [14]

Answer:

The minimum percentage of noise level readings within 8 standard deviations of the mean is 98.44%.

Step-by-step explanation:

When we do not know the shape of the distribution, we use the Chebyshev's Theorem to find the minimum percentage of a measure within k standard deviations of the mean.

This percentage is:

$p = 1 - \frac{1}{k^{2}}$

Within 8 standard deviations of the mean

This means that $k = 8$ . So

$p = 1 - \frac{1}{8^{2}} = 1 - \frac{1}{64} = \frac{64 - 1}{64} = \frac{63}{64} = 0.9844$

The minimum percentage of noise level readings within 8 standard deviations of the mean is 98.44%.

HELP! ASAP!

Novosadov [1.4K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

So the height is going to be x when you fold the sides up. So that's one part of the volume but for the width it was going to be 4 but since two corners were cut out with the length x the new width is going to be (4-2x). The same thing applies for the length which should be 8 inches but since two corners were removed with the length x it's now (8-2x)

v = x(4-2x)(8-2x)

Part B:

The volume can be graphed although there must be a domain restriction since the height, width, or length cannot be negative. So let's look at each part of the equation

so for the x in front it must be greater than 0 to make sense

for the (4-2x), the x must be less than 2 or else the width is negative.

for the (8-2x) the x must be less than 4 or else the length is negative

so the domain is going to be restricted to 0 < x < 2 so all the dimensions are greater than 0

By using a graphing calculator you can see the maximum of the given equation with the domain restrictions is 0.845 which gives a volume of 12.317
