D. Because the interest is compounded more frequently, you will get more money. This is because it allows you to earn interest on previous interest more frequently.

Answer : D

The same amount of principal is invested in different accounts earning the same interest rate.

The account will not grow without interest

Lets assume , initial amount P= 100, rate of interest = 5%=>r= 0.05 and

number of years, t= 1

Calculate the simple interest

A = P + P*r*t = 100 + 100*.05*1= 105

In simple interest, $100 invested , amount earned = $105

Now we calculate earning interest compounded annually

A= P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{t*n}

Lets assume , initial amount P= 100, rate of interest = 5%=>r= 0.05 and

number of years, t= 1, for compounded annually n= 1

A= 100(1+\frac{0.05}{1})^{1*1}= 105

For interest compounded annually, $100 invested , amount earned = $105

Now we calculate earning interest compounded daily

A= P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{t*n}

Lets assume , initial amount P= 100, rate of interest = 5%=>r= 0.05 and

number of years, t= 1, for compounded annually n= 365

A= 100(1+\frac{0.05}{365})^{1*365}= 105.26

For interest compounded daily, $100 invested , amount earned = $105.26

So, An account compounded daily will have greatest accumulated value at the end of one year

<h3><u>Answer:</u></h3>

\boxed{\boxed{\pink{\sf \leadsto Hence \ the \ area \ of \ shaded \ region \ is 264 cm^2}}}

<h3><u>Step-by-step explanation:</u></h3>

Here , two circles are given which are concentric. The radius of larger circle is 10cm and that of smaller circle is 4cm . And we need to find thelarea of shaded region.

From the figure it's clear that the area of shaded region will be the difference of areas of two circles.

Let the,

  • Radius of smaller circle be r .
  • Radius of smaller circle be r .
  • Area of shaded region be \bf Area_{shaded}

\bf \implies Area_{Shaded}= Area_{bigger}-Area_{smaller} \\\\\bf\implies Area_{Shaded} = \pi R^2 - \pi r^2  \\\\\bf\implies Area_{shaded} = \pi ( R^2-r^2)  \\\\\bf\implies Area_{shaded} = \pi [ (10cm)^2 - (4cm)^2]  \\\\\bf\implies Area_{shaded}  = \pi [ 100cm^2-16cm^2]  \\\\\bf\implies Area_{shaded}  = \pi \times 84cm^2  \\\\\bf\implies Area_{shaded}  = \dfrac{22}{7}\times 84cm^2  \\\\\bf\implies \boxed{\red{\bf Area_{shaded} = 264 cm^2 }}

<h3><u>Hence </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>area</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> the</u><u> </u><u>shaded </u><u>region</u><u> is</u><u> </u><u>2</u><u>6</u><u>4</u><u> </u><u>cm²</u><u>.</u></h3>
