Answer:

16 packages

Step-by-step explanation:

5 2/5 + 2 1/4  Use the common denominator of 20

5 8/20 + 2 5/20  

7  13/20

I know that I will need 14 packages for the 7 pounds.  For the fraction part, 10/20 would be half, so I would need to buy a half pound for that, but I need 13/20 which would be more than a half pound, so I will need to buy 2 more pounds for the fraction part.

14 + 2 = 16

On the 1st January 2014 Carol invested some money in a bank account.
Ghella [55]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{\pounds 23 360.00}}

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the accrued amount from compound interest is

A = P \left(1 + \dfrac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}

1. Amount in account on 1 Jan 2015

(a) Data:

a = £23 517.60

r = 2.5 %

n = 1

t = 1 yr

(b) Calculations:  

r = 0.025

\begin{array}{rcl}23517.60 & = & P\left (1 + \dfrac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}\\\\& = & P\left (1 + \dfrac{0.025}{1}\right)^{1\times1}\\\\& = & P (1 + 0.025)\\ & = & 1.025 P\\P & = & \dfrac{23517.60 }{1.025} \\\\& = & 22 944.00 \\\end{array}

The amount that gathered interest was £22 944.00 but, before the interest started accruing, Carol had withdrawn £1000 from the account.

She must have had £23 944 in her account on 1 Jan 2015.

(2) Amount originally invested

(a) Data

A = £23 944.00

\begin{array}{rcl}23 944.00 & = & 1.025 P\\P & = & \dfrac{23 944.00 }{1.025} \\\\& = & \mathbf{23 360.00} \\\end{array}\\\text{Carol originally invested $\large \boxed{\textbf{\pounds23 360.00}}$ in her account.}

3. Summary

1 Jan 2014      P = £23 360.00

1 Jan 2015     A =    23 944.00

     Withdrawal = <u>    -1  000.00 </u>

                     P =     22 944.00

1 Jan 2016    A =    £23 517.60

Find the work required to move an object in the force field F = e^x + y (1, 1, z) along the straight line from A(0, 0, 0) to B(-
DENIUS [597]

\vec F(x,y,z)=(e^x+y)(1,1,z)

is conservative if we can find a scalar function f such that \nabla f=\vec F. This would require

f_x=e^x+y

f_y=e^x+y

f_z=(e^x+y)z

Integrating both sides of the first equation wrt x gives

f(x,y,z)=e^x+xy+g(y,z)

Differentiating both sides of this wrt y gives

f_y=x+g_y=1\implies g_y=1-x\implies g(y,z)=y-xy+h(z)

but we assumed g was a function of y and z, independent of x. So there is no such f and \vec F is not conservative.

To find the work, first parameterize the path (call it C) by

\vec r(t)=(1-t)(0,0,0)+t(-4,5,-5)=(-4t,5t,-5t)

for 0\le t\le1. Then

\vec r'(t)=(-4,5,-5)

and the work is given by the line integral,

W=\displaystyle\int_C\vec F\cdot\mathrm d\vec r=\int_0^1(e^{-4t}+5t,e^{-4t}+5t,-(e^{-4t}+5t)5t)\cdot(-4,5,-5)\,\mathrm dt

W=\displaystyle\int_0^1(125t^2+5t+(25t+1)e^{-4t})\,\mathrm dt=\boxed{\frac{2207}{48}-\frac{129}{16e^4}}
