Answer:
(-∞, -4] ∪ [5, ∞)
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi!
Alright, so greater (or less) than or equal to is denoted with a bracket.
If x is less than or equal to -4, then the bracket is on the left side.
(___, -4]
Because x is <em>any</em> number under or equal to -4, x can range from negative infinity. However, we use a parentheses for infinity because infinity can never truly be reached.
So, x -4 = (-∞, -4]
X5
Equal to = bracket
X is any number above 5, so
[5, ∞)
Because we want both of these, we use the union sign (∪)
so,
= (-∞, -4] ∪ [5, ∞)
Answer:
Albert = $2159.07; Marie = $2244.99; Hans = $2188.35; Max = $2147.40
Marie is $10 000 richer
Step-by-step explanation:
Albert
(a) $1000 at 1.2 % compounded monthly
A = 1000(1 + 0.001)¹²⁰ = $1127.43
(b) $500 losing 2%
0.98 × 500 = $490
(c) $500 compounded continuously at 0.8%
(d) Balance
Total = 1127.43 + 490.00+ 541.64 = $2159.07
Marie
(a) 1500 at 1.4 % compounded quarterly
A = 1500(1 + 0.0035)⁴⁰ = $1724.99
(b) $500 gaining 4 %
1.04 × 500 = $520.00
(c) Balance
Total = 1724.99 + 520.00 = $2244.99
Hans
$2000 compounded continuously at 0.9 %
Max
(a) $1000 decreasing exponentially at 0.5 % annually
A = 1000(1 - 0.005)¹⁰= $951.11
(b) $1000 at 1.8 % compounded biannually
A = 1000(1 + 0.009)²⁰ = $1196.29
(c) Balance
Total = 951.11 + 1196.29 = $2147.40
Marie is $ 10 000 richer at the end of the competition.
