Mathematics
1 answer:
Elza [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The percent decrease was 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, use the percent change equation.

(New - Old)/(Old) * 100 = % Change

Now input 48 for the New price and 60 for the Old price.

(48 - 60)/(60) * 100 = % Change

12/60 * 100 = % Change

.2 * 100 = % Change

20 = % Change

____ is the amount of a $3,000.00 annuity due at 12 percent compounded semiannually for 3 years
ANEK [815]
The formula of the present value of annuity due:
PV=C*[\frac{1-(1+i)^{-n}}{i}]*(1+i)

For your case:
C = $3000
i = 12% / 100 = 0.12
n = 3 * 2 = 6 (semiannually for 3 years means 6 payments)

So, the solution is:
PV=3000*[\frac{1-(1+0.12)^{-6}}{0.12}]*(1+0.12)=3000*[\frac{1-0.5066}{0.12}]*1.12=
=3000*[\frac{1-0.5066}{0.12}]*1.12=3000*4.1114*1.12=13814.32

k0ka [10]

Answer:

The midpoint is (2.5,-6) or written as a fraction (\frac{5}{2}, -6)

Step-by-step explanation:

MP= (\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}),(\frac{y_1+y_2}{2} ) \\MP= (\frac{-2+7}{2}),(\frac{-8+-4}{2} ) \\MP= (\frac{5}{2}),(\frac{-12}{2} ) \\MP= (2.5,-6 )

The perimeter of a rectangle is 24. If the length is 5 times the width, what is the area?
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer: Area is 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle is 24

Let the length be x

Let the breadth be Y

Length is 5times the breadth

I.e

X=5y

Formula for perimeter of a rectangle is

2(length + breadth)

= 2(x+y)

Substitute for x=5y

2(5y+y)=24

2(6y)=24

6y=24/2

6y=12

Y=12/6

Y=2

Breadth = 2

Since length =5y

Length=5(2)

Length = 10

Area of a rectangle = length × breadth

Area= 10×2

Area = 20

Area of the rectangle is 20
