Paul bought a 15-year treasury bond for a face amount of $600. The 2.5% interest will be compounded quarterly. What will the fut

Alika [10]

First, we convert the interest such that it is compounded annually. The formula would be:

ieff = (1 + i/m)^m - 1
where m = 4, since there are 4 quarters in a year
ieff = (1 + 0.025/4)^4 - 1
ieff = 0.0252

Then we use this for this equation:
F = P(1 + i)^n, where F is the future worth, P is the present worth and n is the number of years
F = $600(1 + 0.0252)^15
F = $871.53

Length of the median CP

ehidna [41]

Given:

ΔABC $\sim$ ΔDEF

To find:

The length of median CP

Solution:

In ΔABC,

AP = 12, BP = 12 and PC = 3x - 12

In ΔDEF,

DQ = 16, QE = 16 and FQ = 2x + 8

If two triangles are similar, then their median is proportional to the corresponding sides.

$$\Rightarrow \frac{AP}{DQ} =\frac{PC}{FQ}$

$$\Rightarrow \frac{12}{16} =\frac{3x-12}{2x+8}$

Do cross multiplication.

$$\Rightarrow 12(2x+8)=16(3x-12)$

$$\Rightarrow 24x+96=48x-192$

Add 192 on both sides.

$$\Rightarrow 24x+96+192=48x-192+192$

$$\Rightarrow 24x+288=48x$

Subtract 24x from both sides.

$$\Rightarrow 24x+288- 24x=48x- 24x$

$$\Rightarrow 288=24x$

Divide by 24 on both sides.

⇒ 12 = x

Substitute x = 12 in CP.

CP = 3(12) - 12

= 36 - 12

= 24

The length of median CP is 24.

Suppose that two cards are randomly selected from a standard 52-card deck. (a) what is the probability that the first card is

Savatey [412]

(a) without replacement:
P(S)=13/52=1/4
P(SS)=(1/4)*(12/51)=1/17
Probability of selecting two spades without replacement is 1/17.

(b) with replacement
P(S)=13/52=1/4
P(SS)=(1/4)(13/52)=1/16
Probability of selecting two spades with replacement is 1/16.

The answer is C: $10\text{ }^1/_2$ . Here are the details:

$\text{Equation:}\\ 6\text{ }^1/_3+10\text{ }^1/_2\stackrel{?}{=}26\text{ }^1/_6\\ \\ \text{Start with the integers.}\\ 6+10=16\stackrel{?}{=}26\text{ }^1/_6\\ \\ \text{...then with the fractions, but rewrite them first to make it easier.}\\ ^1/_3+\text{ }^1/_2\stackrel{\text{rewrite}}{\to}\text{ }^2/_6+\text{ }^3/_6=\text{ }^5/_6\stackrel{?}{=}26\text{ }^1/_6\\
\\
\text{Add 'em up!}\\
16\text{ }^5/_6$

$\text{Equation:}\\
16\text{ }^5/_6+3\text{ }^5/_6\stackrel{?}{=}26\text{ }^1/_6\\
\\
\text{Start with the integers.}\\

$\text{Last equation:}\\ 20\text{ }^2/_3+5\text{ }^1/_2\stackrel{?}{=}26\text{ }^1/_6\\ \\ \text{Start with the integers.}\\ 20+5=25\stackrel{?}{=}26\text{ }^1/_6\\ \\ \text{...then with the fractions, but rewrite them first to make it easier.}\\ ^2/_3+\text{ }^1/_2\stackrel{\text{rewrite}}{\to}\text{ }^4/_6+\text{ }^3/_6=\text{ }^7/_6\stackrel{\text{rewrite}}{\to}1\text{ }^1/_6\stackrel{?}{=}26\text{ }^1/_6\\
\\
\text{Add the integer and fraction together.}\\
25+1\text{ }^1/_6\stackrel{?}{=}26\text{ }^1/_6$

$26\text{ }^1/_6\stackrel{\checkmark}{=}26\text{ }^1/_6$
