Answer:

It will take 88.2 months to accumulate the amount

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Future value of money, FV = $25,000

investment per compound period, P = $200

interest rate, i = 0.75% x 12 = 9%

The number of monthly installments required to amount to FV is given by;

n = \frac{ln(FVi +cp)-ln(cp)}{ln(c+i)-ln(c)}\\\\ n = \frac{ln(25000*0.09 +200*12)-ln(200*12)}{ln(12+0.09)-ln(12)}\\\\n = \frac{8.4446 -7.7832}{2.4924-2.4849}\\\\n = 88.2 \ months

Therefore, it will take 88.2 months to accumulate the amount.

Well, 6/8 can be simplified: divide the numerator and denominator by 2, then your simplified fraction is 3/4. Now, multiply straight across: 4 times what=12? 3 does. So, you do the same thing to the numerator, because whatever you do to the denominator must be done to the numerator, and same reversed. 3*3=9, so the answer to this is 9/12!!

Malcolm is filling bags with rice. He starts with a 5 1/4 pound container of rice and fills each
Sliva [168]

Basically we want to know how many times 5/8 goes into 5 1/4.

5 1/4 ÷ 5/8 = 21/4 ÷ 5/8 = 21/4 × 8/5 = 42/5 = 8.4 bags

Since we cannot have a fraction of a bag, he can fill 8 bags completely.

answer: 8 bags

The perimeter of a rectangle is equal to 10. If the length is halved and the width is doubled, the new perimeter is increased by
monitta

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call x the lenght and y the height. The perimeter will be:

p = 2x + 2y = 10

When the lenght is halved and the height double we'll have:

p = x + 4y = 14

These 2 equations form a system of equations2 that can be solved and give as result:

y = 3

x = 2
