How much interest is earned on an investment of $12,000 at 2.9% compounded daily for eight years

Mathematics

Answer:

$3,113,34

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating compound interest is

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

Where

A=the future total value, i.e, the money you will have after t years.

P=the initial deposit.

r=the annual interest rate.

n=the number of times that interest is compounded per year.

t=the number of years the money is saved.

In our case

A is unknown and we will have to calculate it with the formula.

P=$12,000

r=2.9%=0.029

n=365 because the interest is compounded daily and there are 365 days in a year

t=8 years

Applying the formula we get

A=12,000(1+\frac{0.029}{365})^{365\times8}

A=12,000(1+\frac{0.029}{365})^{2,920}

A=12,000(1.000079)^{2,920}

So A=15,113.336

This is the amount of money you would have after 8 years.

Subtracting the initial deposit from this amount we obtain the interest earned I

I=15,113.336-12,000=3,113.336

Rounded to the nearest hundreth

I=$3,113,30

W varies jointly as X and Y and inversely as the square of Z. If W=280 when X=30, Y=12, and Z=3, find W when X=20, Y=10, and Z=2
algol [13]

Hello! Its Me! :)

Answer:

The answer is 350.

Step-by-step explanation:

The joint variation of W with x, y and z may be expressed as follow,                                    W = kxy / z²where k is the constant of variation. Substituting the first set of values for the variables,                                   280 = k(30)(12) / 3²The value of k from the equation is 7. Substituting to the same equation the values of the next set of variables,                                      w = (7)(20)(10) / 2² = 350

Which of these statements is correct?
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

The system of linear equations 8x - 3y = 10 and 16x - 6y = 22 has no solution is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>1) The system of linear equations 6x - 5y = 8 and 12x - 10y = 16 has no solution.</em>

<em>Solve these linear equations simultaneously</em>

<em>Step 1 : Find y in terms of x from any one equation</em>

6x - 5y = 8

y = <u>8 - 6x</u>

        -5

<em>Step 2 : Substitute y in terms of x from step 1 in the second equation.</em>

16x - 6y = 22

16x - 6 (<u>8 - 6x)</u> = 22

              -5

80x - 48 + 36x = 22 x -5

94x = 43

x = 0.457

<em>This statement is incorrect as it does have a solution.</em>

<em>2) The system of linear equations 7x + 2y = 6 and 14x + 4y = 16 has an infinite number of solutions.</em>

<em>Solve these linear equations simultaneously</em>

<em>Step 1 : Find y in terms of x from any one equation</em>

7x + 2y = 6

y = <u>6 - 7x</u>

        2

<em>Step 2 : Substitute y in terms of x from step 1 in the second equation.</em>

14x + 4y = 16

14x + 4(<u>6 - 7x)</u> = 16

              2

14x + 12 - 14x = 16

0 ≠ 4

<em>This statement is not true as there are no solutions.</em>

<em>3) The system of linear equations 8x - 3y = 10 and 16x - 6y = 22 has no solution.</em>

<em>Solve these linear equations simultaneously</em>

<em>Step 1 : Find x in terms of y from any one equation</em>

8x - 3y = 10

x = <u>10 + 3y</u>

        8

<em>Step 2 : Substitute x in terms of y from step 1 in the second equation.</em>

16x - 6y = 22

16(<u>10 + 3y)</u> - 6y = 22

       8

20 + 6y - 6y = 2

0 ≠ -18

<em>This statement is true because there are no solutions</em>

<em>4) The system of linear equations 9x + 6y = 14 and 18x + 12y = 26 has an infinite number of solutions.</em>

<em>Solve these linear equations simultaneously</em>

<em>Step 1 : Find x in terms of y from any one equation</em>

9x + 6y = 14

x = <u>14 - 6y</u>

        9

<em>Step 2 : Substitute x in terms of y from step 1 in the second equation.</em>

18x + 12y = 26

18 (<u>14 - 6y)</u> + 12y = 26

        9

8 - 12y + 12y = 26

0 ≠ 18

<em>This statement is incorrect because there are no solutions. It does not have infinite number of solutions.</em>
