For this case we have an equation of the form:
y = A * (b) ^ t
Where,
A: initial amount
b: growth rate
t: time
Substituting values we have:
y = 75000 * (1.125) ^ t
For 30 years we have:
y = 75000 * (1,125) ^ 30
y = 2568247.871
Rounding:
y = 2568248
Answer:
the value of the investment after 30 years is:
A. $ 2,568,248

Given that a<span>n investment of 75,000 increases at a rate 12.5% per year. Find the value of the investment after 30 years.
Solution
The value after 30 years will be given by
A=P(1+r/100)^n
where:
P=principple
r=rate
n=time
from the information:
P=75000, r=12.5%, n=time
thus plugging the values we obtain:
A=75000(1+12.5/100)^30
A=75000(1.125)^30
A=2,568,247.871

Answer: </span><span>A. $2,568,248</span>

You need to buy 12 tickets to a weekend concert festival but have two options for where to purchase them. Concert Specialties se

AURORKA [14]

Answer:

Concert Specialties is the better buy

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to determine which of the two deals is the better buy, we first need to find out how many of each pack we would need to get the needed 12 tickets. Once we have this value we multiply it by the dollar amount of each pack and compare the totals like so...

Concert Specialties => pack of 3 * 4 = 12 tickets => 4 * 75 = $300

We 'R' Entertainment => pack of 4 * 3 = 12 tickets => 3 * 108 = $324

Therefore, we can now see that the Concert Specialties is the better buy since you are getting the 12 tickets for $24 less than We 'R' Entertainment

Macs farm has a total of 18 horses and 27 cows. what is the ratio of horses to cows in simplest form?

Evgesh-ka [11]

The ratio is basically finding the quotient of two numbers. If you want to find the ratio of horses to cows, divide the number of horses to that of cows.

Ratio = 18/27

When expressing it to its simplest form, make sure it is reduced. 18 and 27 are both factors of 9. So,

Ratio = 9*2/9*3
Cancelling out 9, the ratio at its simplest form is: <em>2/3</em>

Verizon [17]

35 pounds of black tea is needed to be mixed to get the final mixture for 2.10 per pound

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Let x represent the amount of black tea worth 1.80 per pound to be mixed to get the final mixture for 2.10 per pound, hence:

2.4(35) + 1.8(x) = 2.1(x + 35)

x = 35 pounds

35 pounds of black tea is needed to be mixed to get the final mixture for 2.10 per pound
