If a person starts investing $100 per month starting at age 21, and that money earns a 5% return every year, how much will this

person have when turning 70 years old? For ease of calculation, assume starting balance of $0 and annual contributions of $1,200 (12*$100).

The formula for calculating compound interest with yearly contributions is:

Balance = X*(1 + Y)^n + Z((1 + Y)^(n + 1) - (1 + Y)/Y)

where the balance is the money earned after n years invested

Y is the interest rate as a fraction

Z is the yearly contribution

X is the starting investment

Therefore the calculation for this example is:

Balance = 1200*(1 + 0.05)^48 + 1200((1.05)^49 - (1.05)/05)

= $249,393.5

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

$263,123.19.

Explanation:

The formula for compound interest with contributions is:
T=P(1+r)^n+c[((1+r)^{n+1}-(1+r))/r],

where P is the starting principal, r is the interest rate, c is the yearly contribution, and n is the number of years.

For this problem, he starts out depositing $1200; this is P.

He contributes $1200 per year; this is c.

The interest rate is 5%; 5%=5/100=0.05.  This is r.

He starts at age 21 and we want to know how much he will have at 70:
70-21=49.  This is n.

This gives us:
T=1200(1+0.05)^{49}+1200[((1+0.05)^{49+1}-(1+0.05))\div0.05]&#10;\\&#10;\\=1200(1.05)^{49}+1200[((1.05)^{50}-(1.05))\div 0.05]=263123.19

I’m not sure how to slove this problem it’s a equilateral triangle and I’m trying to find out what the side is equal to.
Lerok [7]

Answer:

AB = 5/4 y - 1  = 5/4 (12/13) -1 = 2/13

AC= 7/3 y - 2 = 7/3 (12/13) -2 = 2/13

Step-by-step explanation:

Because it is a equilateral triangle, it means all sides have the same length.

AB = AC

5/4 y - 1 = 7/3 y - 2

5/4 y - 7/3 y = -2 +1

-13/12 y = -1

y = 12/13

input y to the equation.

AB = 5/4 y - 1  = 5/4 (12/13) -1 = 2/13

AC= 7/3 y - 2 = 7/3 (12/13) -2 = 2/13

What is the least common denominator of the fractions 4/15 1/6 and 3/4
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find least common denominator for these fractions or we just have to find the least common multiple for 15, 6 and 4

In order to find the least common multiple, we have to represent these numbers as factors of prime numbers:

15 = 3 * 5

6 = 2 * 3

4 = 2 * 2

Least common multiples will be common factors (considering that there are no more than of them in other numbers) and the uncommon factors. Then, we can write that:

2 * 2 * 3 * 5 = 60 (there are two 2's, one common 3 and an uncommon 5)

The denominator will be 60 for the least common multiples.
