K=\$10,000\ \ \ and\ \ \ Sum=K\cdot(1+ \frac{p}{100})^n\\----------------------- \\1)\ \ \ 7\%\ quarterly\\\\ \ \Rightarrow\ \  \frac{1}{4} \cdot7\% =1.75\%\ \ annually\ \ \Rightarrow\ \ p=1.75\\\\ quarterly\ \Rightarrow\ \  4\ times\ annually\ \Rightarrow\ \ 16\ times\ in\ 4\ years\ \Rightarrow\ \ n=16\\\\Sum(7\%)=\$10,000\cdot(1+ \frac{1.75}{100})^{16}=\\ \\.\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ =\$10,000\cdot(1+0,0175)^{16}\approx\$13199.29\\------------------------\\

2)\ \ \ 6.94\%\ daily\\\\ \ \Rightarrow\ \  \frac{1}{365} \cdot6.94\% \approx0.019\%\ \ annually\ \ \Rightarrow\ \ p=0.019\\\\ daily\ \Rightarrow\  365\ times\ annually\ \Rightarrow\ 1420\ times\ in\ 4\ years\ \Rightarrow\ n=1420\\\\Sum(6.94\%)=\$10,000\cdot(1+ \frac{0.019}{100})^{1420}=\\ \\.\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ =\$10,000\cdot(1+0,00019)^{1420}\approx\$13096.69\\---------------------------\\\$13,199.29 > \$13,096.69\\\\Ans.\ the\ larger\ amount\ gives\ the\ compounded\ quarterly.

Kitty [74]

Answer:

-\frac{3p^8}{4q^3}

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{15p^{-4}q^{-6}}{-20p^{-12}q^{-3}}  can be broken down into three fractions, coefficients, powers of p, powers of q.

-\frac{15}{20}\cdot\frac{p^{-4}}{p^{-12}}\cdot\frac{q^{-6}}{q^{-3}}

Simplify the first fraction, then simplify the others by subtracting numerator exponents minus denominator exponents.

-\frac{3}{4} p^{-4-(-12)} q^{-6-(-3)} =-\frac{3}{4} p^8 q^{-3} = \alpha -\frac{3p^8}{4q^3}
