Answer:

8 5/8 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

The dog weighs 23 lb and the cat weighs (5/8)(23 lb).

The amount by which the dog's weight exceeds the cat's is

(1)(23 lb) - (5/8)(23 lb), or (3/8)(23 lb) = 69/8 lb, or 8 5/8 lb (answer)

How much money should be deposited today in an account that earns 6% compounded monthly so that it will accumulate to $1000000 (
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

The principal investment required to get  a total amount of $ 1,000,000.00  from compound interest at a rate of 6% per year  compounded 12 times per year  over 45 years  is $ 67,659.17.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

  • Accrued Amount A = $1000000
  • Interest rate r = 6% = 0.06
  • Time period t = 45 years
  • Compounded monthly n = 12

To determine:

  • Principle amount P = ?

Using the formula

A\:=\:P\left(1\:+\:\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}

P\:=\frac{A}{\left(1\:+\:\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}}

substituting A = 1000000, r =  0.06, t = 45, and n = 12

P\:=\frac{1000000}{\left(1\:+\:\frac{0.06}{12}\right)^{12\cdot 45}}\:

    =\frac{1000000}{1.005^{540}}

P = 67659.17 $

Therefore, the principal investment required to get  a total amount of $ 1,000,000.00  from compound interest at a rate of 6% per year  compounded 12 times per year  over 45 years  is $ 67,659.17.
