Answer:
£5650
Step-by-step explanation:
The money max invested in the saving bond = x
After one year the intrest will be 2% of x
Amount = £5763
Amount = Principcal + Interest
= £5763 = x + 2% multiplied x
£5763 = x + 2x/100
= 50x/50 + x/50 = 5763
= 51x/50 = £5763
51x = 5763x50
51x = 288, 150
x = 288,150/51
x = 5650
So the money max invested = £5650
Let our basis be worth 1 dollar. A nickel's worth is $0.05. In order to come up with $1, the number of nickels should be:
Number of nickels = $1 * 1 nickel/$0.05 = 20 nickels
Thickness of 20 nickels = 20 nickels * 1.95 mm = 39 mm
Let's do the same for the quarters. Each quarter is worth $0.25.
Number of quarters = $1 * 1 quarter/$0.25 = 4 quarters
Thickness of 4 quarters = 4 quarters * 1.75 mm = 7 mm
Find the ratio of the two:
39 mm/7 mm = 5.57
Therefore, a stack of nickels is 5.57 times thicker than a stack of quarters worth one dollar.
The probability would be 0.1971.
We will calculate a z-score for each end of this interval.
z = (X-μ)/σ
For the lower limit:
z = (1100-1050)/218 = 50/218 = 0.23
For the upper limit:
z = (1225-1050)/218 = 175/218 = 0.80
Using a z-table (http://www.z-table.com) we see that the area under the curve to the left of, less than, the lower limit is 0.5910. The area under the curve to the left of, less than, the upper limit is 0.7881. To find the area between them, we subtract:
0.7881 - 0.5910 = 0.1971
