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

A strand of bacteria has a doubling time of 15 minutes. If the population starts with 10 organisms, how long would it take for t
slamgirl [31]

In 90 minutes the population to grow to 700 organisms.

Given that,

A strand of bacteria has a doubling time of 15 minutes.

If the population starts with 10 organisms.

We have to determine,

How long would it take for the population to grow to 700 organisms?

According to the question,

A strand of bacteria has a doubling time of 15 minutes.

If the population starts with 10 organisms.

In 15 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 10 organisms.

\rm = 10 \times 2 = 20 \ bacteria

In 15 minutes 20 bacteria for the population to grow.

In 30 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 20 organisms.

\rm = 20 \times 2 = 40 \ bacteria

In 30 minutes 40 bacteria for the population to grow.

In 45 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 40 organisms.

\rm = 40 \times 2 = 80 \ bacteria

In 45 minutes 80 bacteria for the population to grow.

In 60 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 80 organisms.

\rm = 80 \times 2 = 160 \ bacteria

In 60 minutes 160 bacteria for the population to grow.

In 75 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 160 organisms.

\rm = 160 \times 2 = 320 \ bacteria

In 75 minutes 320 bacteria for the population to grow.

In 90 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 320 organisms.

\rm = 320 \times 2 = 640 \ bacteria

In 90 minutes 640 bacteria for the population to grow.

In 120 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 640 organisms.

\rm = 640 \times 2 = 1280 \ bacteria

In 120 minutes 1280 bacteria for the population to grow.

Hence, In 90 minutes the population to grow to 700 organisms.

beks73 [17]

Answer: The area that it covers is 78.53 square meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply the next formula:

Area of a circle (A): π r²

Where:

r = radius (in our case is 5 meters)

So, replacing with the values given:

A= π (5)² = π 25 =78.53 square meters

In conclusion, the area that it covers is 78.53 square meters
