suppose that you have 3000$ to invest. which investment yields the greater return over a 10 year period: 8.04% compounded daily

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer: Option A: 8.04% compounded daily

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

$A = P\bigg(1+\dfrac{r}{n}\bigg)^{nt}\qquad where\\\\\bullet A = \text{accrued amount (principal plus interest earned)}\\\bullet P = \text{principal (amount invested)}\\\bullet r = \text{rate (in decimal form)}\\\bullet n=\text{number of times compounded in one year}\\\bullet t=\text{time (number of years)}\\\\\\Option\ A:\\A = \text{unknown}\\P=3000\\r=8.04\%\rightarrow 0.0804\\n=\text{daily}\rightarrow 365\\t=10\\\\A=3000\bigg(1+\dfrac{0.0804}{365}\bigg)^{365\times 10}\\\\.\ =\$ 6,702.79$

$Option\ B:\\A = \text{unknown}\\P=3000\\r=8.1\%\rightarrow 0.081\\n=\text{quarterly}\rightarrow 4\\t=10\\\\A=3000\bigg(1+\dfrac{0.081}{4}\bigg)^{4\times 10}\\\\.\ =\$ 6,689.37$

Option A results in the greater amount of money.

Trig. help. How does <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=2sin%20%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20x%29cos%28%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20x%

Recall that 2sin(x) cos(x) is actually equal to sin(2x).

We can prove this by expanding sin(2x) to sin(x + x).
sin(x + x) = sin(x) cos(x) + cos(x) sin(x) = 2sinxcosx

Thus, 2sin(x/2)cos(x/2) can be rewritten in the form:
sin(2x/2), and this simplifies down to sinx.
