Two bonds are available on the market as follows: Bond 1: Face value $250, 5 years to maturity at a (simple) interest rate of 5%

. Bond 2: Face value $350, 3 years to maturity at a (simple) interest rate of r. Given that both bonds yield the same interest to maturity, calculate r.

The value of r is 5.95%

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of the simple interest is I = P r t, where

  • P is the initial amount of money
  • r is the interest rate in decimal
  • t is the time

Bond 1:

∵ The face value is $250

∴ P = 250

∵ The value is in the bond for 5 years

∴ t = 5

∵ The simple interest rate is 5%

∴ r = 5% = 5 ÷ 100 = 0.05

∵ I = P r t

- Substitute the values of P, r and t in the rule

∴ I = (250)(0.05)(5) = 62.5

∴ The interest of Bond 1 is $62.5

Bond 2:

∵ The face value is $350

∴ P = 350

∵ The value is in the bond for 3 years

∴ t = 3

∵ The simple interest rate is r

∵ I = P r t

- Substitute the values of P and t in the rule

∴ I = (350)(r)(3) = 1050 r

∴ The interest of Bond 2 is 1050 r

∵ The both bonds yield the same interest to maturity

- Equate the interests of bonds 1 and 2

∵ 1050 r = 62.5

- Divide both sides by 1050

∴ r = 0.0595

- Multiply it by 100% to change it to percentage

∵ r = 0.0595 × 100% = 5.95%

∴ r = 5.95%

The value of r is 5.95%

HELP PLEASE!!! Thanks!

Answer:

2) \frac{\sqrt{77}}{11}

3) 5√2

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplest radical form of an expression is the expression in radical so that there are no more square roots, cube roots, 4th roots, etc left to find, after rationalising the denominator ( if needed ).

2. Here the given expressions,

\frac{\sqrt{7}}{\sqrt{11}}

For rationalising the denominator multiply both numerator and denominator by √11,

\frac{\sqrt{77}}{11}

3. given expression,

\sqrt{50}

=\sqrt{25\times 2}

=\sqrt{25}\times \sqrt{2}   (\because \sqrt{ab}=\sqrt{a}\sqrt{b})

=5\sqrt{2}

Find the length of side X
NISA [10]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the 2 other sides, that is

x² + 6² = 17²

x² + 36 = 289 ( subtract 36 from both sides )

x² = 253 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = \sqrt{253} → C

A yacht that travels 1.375 km in 165 minutes expressed in km/h
Tomtit [17]

The speed of a yacht traveling a distance of 1.357 km in 165 minutes is 0.5 km/h

<h3>What is Speed?</h3>

The speed of an object is the distance covered by the object in respect to time.

Mathematically:

\mathbf{Speed = \dfrac{distance}{time}}

\mathbf{Speed = \dfrac{1.375 \ km}{165 minutes }}

  • We know that 60 minutes = 1 hour
  • 165 minutes = 2.75 hours

\mathbf{Speed = \dfrac{1.375 \ km}{2.75 \ hours}}

Speed = 0.5 km/hour
