A = P(1+i)ⁿ ==> compound interest where P= initial Capital, I =interest in% and n the number of years. A is the total amount collected over n years

A= 500(1.0325)¹² ==> 500(1+0.0325)¹² ==> 500(1+3.25%)¹²
The mistake is:
Either she has a yearly interest of 3.25% & she wrote 12 instead of 3 (years)
OR
She got a quarterly interest of 3.25% and in this case she should have divided 3.25& by 12 (4 quarter a year ==> 12 quarter for 3 years) by keeping as exponent the number 12 (right)

1)Now the Amount of A (as she wrote it) =500(1.0325)¹² = 734
2) If she wrote 12 instead of 3, and after correction A=500(1.0325)³ =550
3) But if she had taken the quarterly interest for a period of 3 years (12 Qrtr)
 then A =500[1+(3.25%)/4]¹² = 551

What are the possible rational zeros of f(x)=x^4+2x^3-3x^2-4x+20?
Mice21 [21]
Roots test tells us to take the factors of the 20 divided by the factors of the coefficient of the the first.  

factors of 20 are 1,2,4,5,10,20
factors of 1 are 1

so plus or minus 1/1, 2/1, 4/1, 5/1, 10/1, 20/1 are all possible rational zeros

A loan worth $1000 collects simple interest each year for 6 years. At the end of that time, a total of $1270 is paid back. Deter
Korolek [52]

Answer:

The percentage rate is 4.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

The simple interest earned in this situation is $1270 - $1000, or $270.

the simple interest formula is i =prt.

Here, i = $270 = ($1000)(r)(6 yr).

                $270

Then r = ------------------- = 0.045

                $1000(6 yr)

The percentage rate is 4.5%

Answer:

A)2

Step-by-step explanation:

we would like to integrate the following definite Integral:

\displaystyle  \int_{0} ^{1} 5x \sqrt{x} dx

use constant integration rule which yields:

\displaystyle  5\int_{0} ^{1} x \sqrt{x} dx

notice that we can rewrite √x using Law of exponent therefore we obtain:

\displaystyle  5\int_{0} ^{1} x \cdot  {x}^{1/2} dx

once again use law of exponent which yields:

\displaystyle  5\int_{0} ^{1}  {x}^{ \frac{3}{2} } dx

use exponent integration rule which yields;

\displaystyle  5 \left( \frac{{x}^{ \frac{3}{2}  + 1  } }{ \frac{3}{2}  + 1} \right)  \bigg|  _{0} ^{1}

simplify which yields:

\displaystyle  2 {x}^{2}  \sqrt{x}   \bigg|  _{0} ^{1}

recall fundamental theorem:

\displaystyle  2 (  {1}^{2}) (\sqrt{1}  ) - 2( {0}^{2} )( \sqrt{0)}

simplify:

\displaystyle  2

hence

our answer is A
