This is a permutation problem in which you are to arrange the objects and the order doesn't matter. You can easily calculate it using your scientific calculator. Just use the formula nPr, where n is the total number of objects taken r at a time.

PAYMENT = 7 letters => 7P5 = 2520
There are 2,520 ways

For butterfly, its quite tricky because there are two letters. Oder does matter here, since no matter which t comes first, that is still the same. So, this is what you do:

BUTTERFLY = 9 letters
9P5 ÷ 2! => since there are two same letters
15120 ÷ 2 = 7560
There are 7560 ways.

How many years will it take for the account to reach $18,600? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth
Margarita [4]
 <span>it depends how the interest is calculated, but there's not much of a difference 

assuming its continuously compouned, you use this formula: A(t)=Pe^(rt), where A is the final amount, P is the initial investment, r is the interest, and t is the time in years 

you want to find t such that A(t)=18,600 so 18,600=1000e^(.0675t) 

you need to use logarithm to figure it out, take the natural log of both sides 

the following properties will come into use: 

ln(a*b)=ln(a)+ln(b) 
ln(a^b)=bln(a) 
ln(e)=1 

taking the natural log 

ln(18,600)=ln(1000e^(.0675t)) 

ln(18,600)=ln(1000)+ln(e^.0675t) 

ln(18600)=ln(1000) + .0675t 

now solve for t: t= (ln(18600)-ln(1000))/.0675 

t=43.31</span>

When Val checks her cable bill, she is shocked by her movie-rental bill for the month. Renting movies costs $2.99 for each movie
astraxan [27]

Answer:

She should buy the monthly plan for the unlimited movies rather than pay $2.99 per movie. This is because, the more she pay that amount for each movie, the higher her expenses would become at the end of each month.

For example, let assume, in a month, she 8 free days (Saturday and Sunday). She paying for each movie each of those days would supersede the amount she could have spent assuming she did the unlimited monthly plan of $7.99.

That notwithstanding other days which will feel like watching movies or the public holidays which she would be free to relax.
