Find the annual interest rate.

Mathematics
1 answer:

The annual interest rate is 3.5%.

Solution:

Given Interest (I) = $26.25

Principal (P) = $500

Time (t) = 18 months

Rate of interest (r) = ?

Time must be in years to find the rate per annum.

1 year = 12 months

Divide the time by 12.

Time (t) = \frac{18}{12}=\frac{3}{2} years

Now, find the rate of interest using simple interest formula.

<u>Simple interest formula:</u>

$I=\frac{Prt}{100}

$26.25=\frac{500\times r\times \frac{3}{2} }{100}

$26.25\times 100 =500\times r\times \frac{3}{2}

$2625 =250\times r\times 3

$2625 =750\times r

$\Rightarrow r=\frac{2625}{750}

⇒ r = 3.5%

Hence the annual interest rate is 3.5%.

An arc with length 5 pi over 4 inches is formed by a 15 degree central angle what is the radius of the circle
Natalka [10]

Answer:

Radius of the circle is <em>15 inches.</em>

<em></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Relation between length of arc, radius and the angle subtended by the arc on center is:

\theta = \dfrac{l}{r} ..... (1)

where \theta is the central angle in radians subtended by arc

l is the length of arc

r is the radius of arc

We are Given the following details:

l = \dfrac{5\pi}{4}\ inch

\theta = 15^\circ

We know that \pi \ radians = 180 ^\circ

Converting \theta to radians:

\theta =\dfrac{\pi}{180} \times 15 radians

Putting the values of \theta and l to find the value of r

\dfrac{\pi}{180} \times 15 = \dfrac{5\pi}{4r}\\\Rightarrow r = \dfrac{45}{3} \\\Rightarrow r = 15 \ inches

Hence, Radius of the circle is <em>15 inches.</em>

Death Valley has an altitude that is below sea level. Which situation describes a hiker in Death Valley who hikes until he reach
Firdavs [7]

Answer: D

Step-by-step explanation:

Think of it logically: A and C are not below sea level so you can cross them out. And B doesn't work because if you decrease -10 by 10 you get -20. So, D is correct.
