Answer:

41.09%

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the capital gain

$9,100-$6,450=$2,650

step 2

Express his capital gain as a percent of the original purchase price

we know that

$6,450 ( original purchase price) -----> represent 100%

so by proportion

100%/6,450=x/2,650

x=2,650*100/6,450

x=41.09%

A fund earns a nominal rate of interest of 6\% compounded every two years. Calculate the amount that must be contributed now to
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

$712.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a fund earns a nominal rate of interest of 6% compounded every two years. We are asked to find the amount that must be contributed now to have 1000 at the end of six years.

We will use compound interest formula to solve our given problem.

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

A = Final amount,

P = Principal amount,

r = Annual interest rate in decimal form,  

n = Number of times interest is compounded per year,

t = Time in years.

6\%=\frac{6}{100}=0.06

Since interest is compounded each two years, so number of compounding per year would be 1/2 or 0.5.

1000=P(1+\frac{0.06}{0.5})^{0.5*6}

1000=P(1+0.12)^{3}

1000=P(1.12)^{3}

1000=P*1.404928

\frac{1000}{1.404928}=\frac{P*1.404928}{1.404928}

P=711.7802478

P\approx 712

Therefore, an amount of $712 must be contributed now to have 1000 at the end of six years.

Which is bigger, <br> a) 70% of 300 <br> b) ¼ of 600?<br> ∞Δ∞
Artist 52 [7]
Since 300 is 100%, you treat it as such.

300/(100/70) = 210 (rounded)


You do a similar thing for 600

1/4 of 100 is 25
100/25 = 4
600 / 4 = 150



70% of 300 is more.

Given a line segment with endpoints A(16, 8) and B(1, 3) what are the coordinates of the
blondinia [14]

Answer:

The line segment partitioned two-fifths from A to B is (10,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

First point from A to B is (16,8)

than find the difference between A to B i.e B - A

(1,3)-(16,8) = (-15,-5)

To measure the (2/5) difference we will multiply (-15,-5) with  (2/5) which is equal to (-6,-2)

Now Add the difference to the first coordinate (point A) gives

Point of division = (16,8)+(-6,-2)

Point of division = (16-6, 8-2)

Point of division = (10,6)

URGENT PLEASE: You purchase a new guitar and take out a loan for $450. You have 18 equal monthly payments of $28 each. What is t
kramer
Answer:
8%

Step-by-step explanation:
The amount repaid is ...
A = P(1 +rt)
Filling in the given values, we can find r.
(18·28) = 450(1 +r(18/12)) . . . . . t is in years
504 = 450 + 675t

54/675 = 0.08 = 8%

The simple interest rate on the loan is 8%.
