Given :-
sam and Bethan shareare in the ratio 5:4 respectively.
Total no of money is = 54ÂŁ
Solution :-
Let Sams share is be x ie = 5
Let Bethans share be y ie = 4
Total no of share is = 9
Therefore the persons share is (particular persons share / total no of share) *
total value of money
Ans : -
Therefore sams share x is = (5/9)* 54 =30ÂŁ
Therefore Bethans share y is = (4/9) * 54 = 24ÂŁ

How much more would $1,000 earn in 5 years in an account compounded continuously than an account compounded quarterly if the int

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer: There is a difference of $ 1.0228.

Explanation: Given, initial amount or principal = $ 1000,

Time= 5 years and given compound rate of interest = $3.7%

Now, Since the amount in compound continuously,

$A= Pe^{rt}$ , where, r is the rate of compound interest, P is the principal amount and t is the time.

Here, P=$ 1000, t=5 years and r= $3.7%,

Thus, amount in compound continuously , $A=1000e^{3.7\times5/100}$

⇒ $A=1000e^{18.5}=1000\times 1.20321844013=1203.21844013$

Therefore, interest in this compound continuously rate =1203.21844013-1000=203.21844013

now, Since the amount in compound quarterly,

$A=P(1+\frac{r/4}{100} )^{4t}$ , where, r is the rate of compound interest, P is the principal amount and t is the time.

Thus, amount in compound quarterly, $A=1000(1+\frac{3.7/4}{100} )^{4\times5}$

⇒ $A=1000(1+\frac{3.7}{400} )^{20}$

⇒ $A= 1202.19567617$

Therefore, interest in this compound quarterly rate=1202.19567617-1000=202.19567617

So, the difference in these interests=203.21844013-202.19567617=1.02276396 ≈1.0228

Find the surface area of the cube shown.<br> (_________) square centimeters

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

The answer is: 181.5 square centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cube has six faces, and each face is a square with sides of length 5.5, so the area of one of this faces is $5.5^2=30.25$ , adding the six faces, we get the answer: $A=6\times 30.25=181.5$
