A 20,000 deposit earns 4.8 interest for 4 years . What is the final account balance if the interest is compounded semiannually ?
Bad White [126]

Answer:

Semi-annually: A = $24 178.51

Quarterly:         A = $24 205.73

Monthly:           A = $24 224.13

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for compound interest is

A = P(1 + r)ⁿ

A. Compounded semi-annually

Data:

P = $20 000

APR  = 4.8 %

t = 4 yr

Calculations:

n = 4 × 2 = 8

r = 0.048/2  = 0.024

A = 20 000(1+ 0.024)⁸

  = 20 000 × 1.024⁸

  = 20 000 × 1.208 926

  = $24 178.51

B. Compounded Quarterly

n = 4 × 4 = 16

r = 0.048/4  = 0.012

A = 20 000(1+ 0.012)¹⁶

  = 20 000 × 1.012¹⁶

  = 20 000 × 1.210 286

  = $24 205.73

C. Compounded monthly

n = 4 × 12 = 48

r = 0.048/12  = 0.004

A = 20 000(1+ 0.004)⁴⁸

  = 20 000 × 1.004⁴⁸

  = 20 000 × 1.211 207

  = $24 224.13

The sale price of an item is $180 after a 25% discount is applied. What is the original price of the item?
Valentin [98]
So
100%=original
25% discount
100-25=75
it is 180 sale
75%=180
find 100%

a hack is to recognize that 75/3 times 4=100 so
75%=180
divide 3
25%=60
times 4
100%=240


the real way is proportions
75:180 =100:x
75/180=100/x
multiply both sides by 180x
75x=18000
divide 75
x=240



origitnal price=$240

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Jasmine is baking and selling cupcakes for $15 per dozen.

Let x be the number of dozens of cupcake made by Jasmine.

Her total sales= Sales Per Dozen X Number of Dozens of cupcake sold

= $15 X x = $15x

Since she would like to make more than $120 in cupcake sales.

It means her total sales must be greater than $120.

15x>120

x>120/15

x>8

The number line attached represents the solutions to the situation.

All integers to the right of 8 (excluding 8) satisfies the situation.
