What rate of interest compounded annually is required to triple an investment in 10 years?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Trava [24]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The interest rate should be 11.6%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that at r% rate of interest compounded annually is required to triple an investment of $P in 10 years.

So, using the formula of compound interest, we can write

3P = P(1 + \frac{r}{100})^{10}

⇒ 3 = (1 + \frac{r}{100})^{10}

⇒ (1 + \frac{r}{100}) = 1.116

⇒ \frac{r}{100} = 0.116

⇒ r = 11.6 %

Therefore, the interest rate should be 11.6%. (Answer)

Wendy and two friends went out to eat and decided they would split the bill. The total bill was 35.40. They also decided to leav
marta [7]

Answer:

14.16

Step-by-step explanation:

we first calculate the total amount of money paid, which is 35.40 plus 20%, we use this calculation:

35.40×1.20 = 42.48

now, this amount is split to 3 people, so:

42.48/3 = 14.16

and that is our answer

=1

2. Find the y. Intercept ( c )
Y = x + c
Replace by any of the two coordinates given (4 , 7 )
7 = 4 + c
C= 3

Equation => Y = x + 3

A turtle and a rabbit engage in a footrace over a distance of 4.00 km. The rabbit runs 0.500 km and then stops for a 90.0-min na
Oxana [17]

Answer:

(a) 2.29 km/h

(b) 9 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

For part (a) you have to apply<em> the average speed formula</em>, which is defined by:

v=\frac{d}{t}

where d is the total distance traveled and t is the total time needed.

d=\frac{4.00}{1.75}=2.29 km/h

For part (b) you have to calculate the running time (T) , which is the total time of the race minus the nap time:

The nap time in hours is:

90/60 = 1.5 h (because there are 60 minutes in one hour)

The running time is:

T= 1.75 - 1.5 = 0.25 h

Let t1 represent the time before the nap and t2 the time after the nap:

t1+t2 = T

t1+t2 = 0.25

You have to apply the formula d=vt before and after the nap:

-Before the nap, the distance traveled was 0.50 km

0.50 = v1t1

-Afer the nap, the distance traveled was 3.50 km

3.50=v2t2

But v2=2v1 (because after the nap the rabbit runs twice as fast)

You have to solve the system of equations:

t1=0.25-t2 (I)

v1t1=0.50 (II)

2v1t2=3.50 (III)

Replacing (I) in (II)

v1(0.25-t2)=0.50

Applying distributive property and solving:

0.25v1-v1t2=.050

For (III) you have that v1t2=3.50/2=1.75. Hence:

0.25v1-1.75=0.50

Solving for v1:

v1 = 9 km/h
