Answer:

The comparable tax rate is 3.95%, thus you should choose the 4.5% taxable account option.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to convert the tax-free interest rate of 3% per year to the comparable taxable interest rate, one should consider that 3% is the interest rate after the marginal tax discount. If you are at the 24% marginal tax bracket, the comparable rate is:

r*(1-0.24)=0.03\\r=\frac{0.03}{0.76}\\r=0.0395\\r=3.95\%

The comparable tax rate is 3.95%, thus you should choose the 4.5% taxable account option.

Contact [7]
There are 5280 feet in a mile
There are 3600 seconds in an hour

to get 40 miles per hour
we multiply 40 by 5280 and divide by 3600

40 * 5280 / 3600

this gets us 58.666666...
but since they want us to round to the nearest whole number, our answer would be 59 feet per second

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be average interest paid monthly by a bank's Visa cardholders

Given that X is N(28, 8)

In the following to find out probability we convert X to z score and use std normal distribution table

Z = \frac{x-28}{8}

Probability being less than 1 is here equal to the proportion also.

A) P(X>32) = P(Z>0.5)=0.5-0.1915=0.3085

B) P(X>40) = P(Z>1)=0.5-0.3413=0.1687

C) P(X<19) = P(Z<-1.125)=0.5-0.0438=0.4562

D) We have to find 19th percentile here

Z =-0.88

X=28-0.88(8)\\=20.96
