Answer:  Natalie make $ 367.5 in a week  in which she made $225 in sales .

Natalie make $ ( 300+x ) in a week  in which she made $ x  in sales .

Step-by-step explanation:

Base Salary of Natalie =  $300

Also, she gets 30% of the her total sales for the week.

If total sales in a week = $225

commission = 30% of $225

= $ ( 0.30 × 225)

= $ 67.5

Natalie got = Base Salary  + Commission

= $300 + $ 67.5

= $ 367.5

∴ Natalie make $ 367.5 in a week  in which she made $225 in sales .

If total sales in a week = $x

commission = 30% of $x

= $ ( 0.30 × x)

= $ 0.30 x

Natalie got = Base Salary  + Commission

= $ ( 300+x )

∴ Natalie make $ ( 300+x ) in a week  in which she made $ x  in sales .

George is considering two different investment options. The first option offers 7.4% per year simple interest on the
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

Part A: The value of the simple interest investment at the end of three years is $12,220

Part B: The value of the compounded quarterly interest investment at the end of three years is $12,134.08

Part C: The simple interest investment is better over the first three years

Part D: I advise George to invest his money in the compounded interest investment if he will keep the money for a long time

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

A = P + P r t, where

  • A represents the value of the investment
  • P represents the original amount
  • r represents the  rate in decimal
  • t represents the time in years

∵ George deposits $10,000

∴ P = 10,000

∵ First option offers 7.4% per year simple interest

∴ r = 7.4% = 7.4 ÷ 100 = 0.074

∵ He may not withdraw any of  the money for three years after

   the initial deposit

∴ t = 3

- Substitute all of these values in the formula above

∴ A = 10,000 + 10,000(0.074)(3)

∴ A = 10,000 + 2,220

∴ A = 12,220

The value of the simple interest investment at the end of three years is $12,220

Part B:

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

  • A represents the value of the investment
  • P represents the original amount
  • r represents the  rate in decimal
  • n is a number of periods of a year
  • t represents the time in years

∵ George deposits $10,000

∴ P = 10,000

∵ The second option offers a 6.5% interest rate compounded quarterly

∴ r = 6.5% = 6.5 ÷ 100 = 0.065

∴ n = 4 ⇒ quarterly

∵ He may not withdraw any of  the money for three years after

   the initial deposit

∴ t = 3

- Substitute all of these values in the formula above

∴ A=10,000(1+\frac{0.065}{4})^{(4)(3)}

∴ A=10,000(1.01625)^{12}

∴ A = 12,134.08

The value of the compounded quarterly interest investment at the end of three years is $12,134.08

Part C:

∵ 12,220 > 12,134.08

∴ The simplest interest investment is better than the compounded

    interest investment at the end of three years

The simple interest investment is better over the first three years

Part D:

I advise George to invest his money in the compounded interest investment if he will keep the money for a long time

Look to the attached graph below

  • The red line represents the simple interest investment
  • The blue curve represents the compounded interest investment
  • (Each 1 unit in the vertical axis represents $1000)
  • After 0 years and before 4.179 years the red line is over the blue curve, that means the simple interest is better because it gives more money than the compounded interest
  • After that the blue curve is over the red line that means the compounded quarterly is better because it gives more money than the simple interest
