The concept of interest is centralized on the idea that money has a time value. Your $1,000 today would not have the same worth 10 years after. When interest come into play, the value of your money grows with time. There are two types of interest: simple or compounding. Simple interest is based only on the original deposit. Compounding interest is based on the original deposit, add to that the accumulated interest. So, to put simply, simple interest increases by multiplication, while compounding interest increases exponentially.

In the given equation for simple interest, <span>I = prt, i is the amount of interest earned, P is the present worth, r is the interest rate and t is the amount of time. But what we really want to know is the future worth of our money, not the interest earned Therefore, the equation should be F (future worth) in terms of P, i and t. 

Amount of interest earned = Future worth - Present Worth
I = F - P
Substituting this to the given equation and simplifying,
F - P = Prt
F = P + Prt
F = P(1 + rt)</span>

Find the measures of the angles in the figure.
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

120^o,\,120^o,\,60^o,\,\,\,and\,\,\,60^o

which agrees with the first answer in the list of possible options.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the fact that the addition of all four internal angles of a quadrilateral must render 360^o. Then we can create the following equation and solve for the unknown "h":

2h+2h+h+h = 360^o\\6h=360^o\\h=60^o

Therefore the angles of this quadrilateral are:

120^o,\,120^o,\,60^o,\,\,\,and\,\,\,60^o

sveta [45]

Find the number of miles driven by subtracting the odometer readings:

74545 - 74233 = 312 miles driven.

Divide miles driven by gallons of gas used:

312 / 9 = 34.66 = 35 miles per gallon.
