Jane is having difficulty deciding whether to put her savings in the Mystic Bank or in the Four Rivers Bank. Mystic offers a 12%

rate compounded quarterly, and Four Rivers offers 14% compounded semiannually. Jane has $40,000 to invest and expects to withdraw the money at the end of five years. The better deal is:
Multiple Choice
Four Rivers because she will earn about $6,442 more.
Four Rivers because she will earn about $6,523 more.
Four Rivers because she will earn about $4,000 more.
Four Rivers because she will earn about $20,000 more.

Jane must therefore deposit her savings in the four rivers bank.

<h3>What is compound interest?</h3>

Interest that is added to a loan and deposit sum is known as compound interest. In our everyday lives, it is the notion that is employed the most frequently. Compound interest is calculated as a sum using the interest and principal accrued over time. Compound interest versus simple interest differ primarily in this way.

As per the data provided in the question,

Rate, r = 12%

After five years, the total amount, if Jane had saved at Mystic Bank,if Jane had saved at Mystic Bank would be:

A = P(1+\frac{r}{100} )^n

For compounded quarterly,

n = 5 × 4

n = 20

A = 40000(1 + 12/(4 × 100))²⁰

A = 72244.44     (i)

If Jane placed her savings with the Four Rivers, then,

A = 40000(1 + 14/(2 × 100))¹⁰

A = 40000 × 1.9671

A = 78686.054  (ii)

Therefore, it is evident that case (ii) is higher than case (i). Jane must therefore deposit her savings in the four rivers bank.

Find the probability that a randomly generated bit string of length 10 does not contain a 0 if bits are independent and if a 0 b
jeka94

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information; Let's assume that  R should represent the set of all possible outcomes generated from  a bit string of length 10 .

So; as each place is fitted with either 0 or 1

\mathbf{|R|= 2^{10}}

Similarly; the event E signifies the randomly generated bit string of length 10 does not contain a 0

Now;

if  a 0 bit and a 1 bit are equally likely

The probability that a randomly generated bit string of length 10 does not contain a 0 if bits are independent and if a 0 bit and a 1 bit are equally likely is;

\mathbf{P(E) = \dfrac{|E|}{|R|}}

so ; if bits string should not contain a 0 and all other places should be occupied by 1; Then:

\mathbf{{|E|}=1 }   ; \mathbf{|R|= 2^{10}}

\mathbf{P(E) = \dfrac{1}{2^{10}}}

notsponge [240]

Answer:

60%

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 20 pieces of fruit in a basket and 12 of them are oranges what percentage of the pieces of fruit in the basket are orange show your work in the box and circle your answer

Total oranges in the basket = 20

Number of oranges = 12

what percentage of the pieces of fruit in the basket are orange

= Number of oranges / Total pieces of fruits × 100

= 12/20 × 100

= 0.6 × 100

= 60%

Percentage of the pieces of fruit in the basket that are oranges = 60%

Two integers have a sum of -44 and a difference of 22. The greater of the two integers is
Leni [432]

Answer:

  -11

Step-by-step explanation:

The generic solution to ...

  • a + b = sum
  • a - b = difference

Can be found by adding the two equations:

  (a+b) + (a-b) = (sum) + (difference)

  2a = (sum + difference)

  a = (sum + difference)/2

___

Our particular solution is ...

  a = (-44 +22)/2 = -11

The greater of the two numbers is -11.

___

The other number is -33.
