Answer:

  $121.51

Step-by-step explanation:

At 18.7%, the monthly multiplier is 1+.187/12, so for the year, James' balance is multiplied by (1+.187/12)^12 ≈ 1.2038899

At 12.5%, the monthly multiplier is 1+.125/12, so for the year, James' balance is multiplied by (1+.125/12)^12 ≈ 1.1324161

The difference in these multipliers is ...

  1.2038899 -1.13241605 = 0.0714739

so James' savings is ...

  $1700 × 0.0714739 ≈ $121.51

The mean of 5 numbers is 30. The median is 33. What might the numbers be?
tatiyna

Let a,b,c,d and e are five numbers

mean = (a +b+ c+ d+e)/5 = 30

⇒ (a +b+ c+ d+e) = 150_______(1)

now, Let the number excluded be a

then, new mean =  (b+ c+ d+e)/4 = 28

⇒ (b+ c+ d+e)= 112

putting this value in (1),

⇒a + 112 = 150

⇒a = 150 -112 = 38

excluded number = 38
