The amount needed in the account when Frost retires is given by the annuity formula. Compounding is 2 times per year.
.. A = Pi/(n(1 -(1 +r/n)^(-nt)))
.. 17900 = P*.08/(2*(1 -(1 +.08/2)^(-2*12)))
.. 17900 = P*.04/(1 -(1.04^-24))
.. P ≈ 272,920.64
The compound interest formula can be used to find the present value required. 4015 days is 11 years (ignoring leap years), so the amount to deposit can be calculated from
.. A = P*(1 +r/n)^(nt)
.. 272,920.64 = P*(1 +.08/2)^(2*11) = P*1.04^22
.. P ≈ 115,160.33
We don't know about the company's obligation to Robert. To fulfill its obligation to Frost, it must deposit 115,160.33 today.
The area of a triangle can be calculated as half the product of base length and height. We want the area to be no greater than 10 in².
a) (1/2)(4)(2x-3) ≤ 10
b) 4x -6 ≤ 10 . . . . . simplify
... 4x ≤ 16 . . . . . . . .add 6
... x ≤ 4 . . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x
c) The maximum value of (2x -3) in is (2·4 -3) in = 5 in.
The triangle should be no more than 5 in high to have an area less than 10 in².
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
6(x + 4) = 2(y + 5) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides of the equation
6x + 24 = 2y + 10 ( subtract 10 from both sides )
6x + 14 = 2y ( divide all terms by 2 )
3x + 7 = y, hence
y = 3x + 7 → C
By exterior angle of triangle:
17x+4+8x+1=80
x=3
