Answer:

900 coins

Step-by-step explanation:

The Wiseman demands 1 gold coin for the 1st day, then 3 gold coins for the 2nd day, then 5 gold coins for the 3rd day and it continues for 30 days in this pattern.

Therefore, the total number of gold coins that he gets will be,  

1+ 3+ 5+ ..... up to 30 terms.

This is an A.P. series with the first term(a) 1 and a common difference(d) 2 and the number of terms(n) 30.

Hence, the sum of the A.P. series is given by \frac{n}{2} [2a+(n-1)d]

= \frac{30}{2} [2*1+(30-1)*2]

= 900 coins (Answer)

You have $55,000 in savings account that pays 2% intrest per year. The inflation rate that year is 3.24%. How much do you make i
Sever21 [200]
Your interest formula is given to you.

Interest in a year = principal (the amount invested) * rate (the interest rate) * period (the time you're measuring)

Interest = 55,000 * 2% * 1 year = 55,000 * 0.02 * 1 = $1,100

How much would you need to have made for your spending power to keep with inflation? Your interest rate would have needed to match the inflation rate, otherwise prices are going up faster than you're saving.

Required interest = 55,000 * 3.24% * 1 year = 55,000 * 0.0324 * 1 = $1,782

How much buying power did you lose? The difference between your required interest and your actual interest.
Buying power lost = 1,782 - 1,100 = $682. You lost this much in buying power.

Hope that helped :)

A pyramid with a square base is cut by a plane that is parallel to its base and is 2 units from the base. The surface area of th
icang [17]

Answer:

  6.83 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of the original pyramid be represented by h. Then the cut off top has a height of (h -2). The scale factor for the area is the square of the scale factor for height, so we have ...

  (height ratio)^2 = 1/2

  ((h -2)/h)^2 = 1/2

  (h -2)√2 = h . . . . . . square root; multiply by h√2

  h(√2 -1) = 2√2 . . . . add 2√2 -h

  h = (2√2)/(√2 -1) ≈ 6.8284 . . . units

The altitude of the original pyramid is about 6.83 units.

What is the perimeter of the given figure?
NISA [10]

Answer:

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the unmarked side of the triangle is found by using Pythagoras:

x sqrt (10^2 - 6^2)

= sqrt 64

= 8.

The length of the curved part = 1/2 * pi * 10 = 5pi

Perimeter = 8 + 6 + 5pi

= 14 + 5pi
