The line segment HI has length 3<em>x</em> - 5, and IJ has length <em>x</em> - 1.

We're told that HJ has length 7<em>x</em> - 27.

The segment HJ is made up by connecting the segments HI and IJ, so the length of HJ is equal to the sum of the lengths of HI and IJ.

This means we have

7<em>x</em> - 27 = (3<em>x</em> - 5) + (<em>x</em> - 1)

Solve for <em>x</em> :

7<em>x</em> - 27 = (3<em>x</em> + <em>x</em>) + (-5 - 1)

7<em>x</em> - 27 = 4<em>x</em> - 6

7<em>x</em> - 4<em>x</em> = 27 - 6

3<em>x</em> = 21

<em>x</em> = 21/3

<em>x</em> = 7

What is continuous​ compounding? how does the apy for continuous compounding compare to the apy​ for, say, daily​ compounding? e
aliya0001 [1]
Continuous compounding is the mathematical limit that compound interest can reach.

It is the limit of the function A(1 + 1/n) ^ n as n approaches infinity. IN theory interest is added to the initial amount A  every infinitesimally small  instant.
The limit  of (1 + 1/n)^n is the number e ( = 2.718281828 to 9 dec places).

Say we invest  $1000  at daily compounding at yearly interest of 2 %. After 1 year the $1000 will increase to:-

1000 ( 1 + 0.02/365)^365 = $1020.20

with continuous compounding this will be 

1000 * e^1  =  $2718.28

Answer: Option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this exercise you must keep on mind the Angle at the Center Theorem.

According to the  Angle at the Center Theorem, an inscribed angle is half of the central angle.

Therefore, given in the inscribed angle m∠BAC=35°, you can calculate the central angle m∠EFD as following:

BAC=\frac{EFD}{2}

- Solve for EFD.

EFD=2*BAC

- When you substitute values. you obtain:

EFD=2(35\°)\\EFD=70\°

Trains headed for destination A arrive at the train station at 15-minute intervals tarting at 7am, where as trains headed for de
grandymaker [24]

Answer: a.) 2/3 ; b.) 7/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following details :

Destination A trains arrives at station at 15 minutes interval starting from 7am

Destination B trains arrives at station at 15 minutes interval starting from 7.05am

A.) if a passenger arrives at station uniformly between 7am and 8am and gets on first train. What proportion of time does the passenger leave from destination A?

To leave for destination A. The passenger has to arrive before train to A departs and after train to B leaves.

Train to B leaves, starting at at 7.05 a.m and at interval of 15 minutes

Train to A leaves at 7.00 am and at interval of 15 minutes.

Therefore,

(Train B departs - train A arrives) (between 7 to 8am)

(7.05 - 7.15) + (7.20 - 7.30) + (7.35 - 7.45) + (7.50 - 8.00) = 40 minutes

Total time = 7.00 - 8.00 = 60 minutes

(40 ÷ 60) = 2/3 or 0.667

B.) If passenger arrives uniformly between 7.10am - 8:10am

(7.10 - 7.15) + (7.20 - 7.30) + (7.35 - 7.45) + (7.50 - 8)

5 + 10 + 10 + 10 = 35

35/60 = 7/12 or 0.583
