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

Find the domain of the following graph:
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

-7

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain is the set of all x-values. We can find the domain by finding the left boundary of the graph (the furthest left x-value) and then the right boundary (the furthest right x value).

The furthest left x-value is -7. Notice it has a large open circle here that is not filled in. This means the function does not include -7 but includes numbers very close to it like-6.999999..... We sue use an inequality sign without an equal to to write -7. x >-7.

The furthest right x value is 9. It has a closed circle or "filled in" circle so we write with an equal to sign. x\leq 9.

We combine the two into -7.

The base diameter and the height of a cone are both
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

11/ 42. *. X^ 2. * X = I/3 X A * h; if E = 1/3 A

Then the answer is EX

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of cone= 1/3 * base area * height

= 1/3 * pi* (X/2)^2 * X

= 1/3. * 22/ 7 * X^3/4

= 22/ 21 * X^3 / 4

= 11/21 *. X^2/ 2. *. X

= 11/ 42. * X^3

= 11/ 42. *. X^ 2. * X
