The <em>correct answer</em> is:

$9.99

Explanation:

The formula for compound interest is

A=p(1+r)^t, where A is the total amount, p is the principal invested, r is the interest rate as a decimal number, and t is the number of years. In our problem, A is 9.99 (enough to cover the fee); p is unknown; r is 0.018% = 0.018/100 = 0.00018; and t is 1:

9.99=p(1+0.00018)^1 \\ \\9.99=p(1.00018)^1 \\ \\9.99=p(1.00018) \\ \\\frac{9.99}{1.00018}=\frac{p(1.00018)}{1.00018} \\ \\9.99=p

<span>We are not told how often the interest is compounded, so assuming it is <em /><u><em>compounded yearly</em></u>, you need to keep $9.99 in the account to pay the fee.

<u><em>Explanation: </em></u>
Compound interest follows the formula A=p(1+r)^t,
where:
A is the total amount in the account,
p is the amount of principal,
r is the interest rate as a decimal number,
and t is the number of years.

<u>For our problem: </u>
A = 9.99,
p is unknown,
r = 0.018% = 0.00018,
and t=1.

<u>This gives us: </u>
9.99=p(1+0.00018)^1;
9.99=p(1.00018).

<u>Divide both sides by 1.00018: </u>
9.99=p.</span>

Two brothers, Mark and Walter, each inherit $20000. Mark invests his inheritance in a savings account with an annual return of 2
Igoryamba

Answer:

$720

Step-by-step explanation:

$20000 - 100%

$x. - 2.5%

x=(20000*2.5)/100=500

20000+500=$20500 in one year (Mark)

20000 - 100

x. - 6.1

x= (20000*6.1)/100 = 1220

20000+1220= $21220 (Walter)

21220-20500= $720 more (Walter will have after 1 year)

seraphim [82]
The common difference is 1 1/3
40-1 1/3= 38 2/3
38 2/3-1 1/3=37 1/3
37 1/3-1 1/3=36
Therefore the missing number is 38 2/3
