Answer:

<u>The salary during the 16th year will be US$ 62,318.70</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting salary = US$ 40,000

Duration of the job contract = 15 years

Salary increase rate = 3% compounded annually

2. Let's find the future value of this starting salary after 15 years, using the following formula:

FV = PV * (1 + r) ⁿ

PV = Starting salary = US$ 40,000

number of periods (n) = 15 (15 years compounded annually)

Salary increase rate (r) = 3% = 0.03

Replacing with the real values, we have:

FV = 40,000 * (1 + 0.03) ¹⁵

FV = 40,000 * (1.03) ¹⁵

FV = 40,000 * 1.558

FV = US$ 62,318.70

<u>The salary during the 16th year will be US$ 62,318.70</u>

Use scientific notation to estimate the number of inches in 1,225 miles
madam [21]
First, find the number of inches
<span>1225 Miles = 77616000 Inches

then, move the decimal to until you have a ones place.    </span>
<span>77616000.    the decimal for this number moves to the left SEVEN places.
you end up with 7.7616000
</span>
it will look like this:

7.8 * 10^7

I rounded to the .8 because you didn't state how many significant figures, but it could easily be 7.76 * 10^7

the exponent above the 10 will tell you how many places to move. to get back to your original number, move it back to the right seven places. Of course, you would have to place hold the numbers with 0s. If it were negative, you would move the decimal the opposite way.

Expand the polynomial:<br> (5a+1/5 b)^2
WINSTONCH [101]
Expand the following:
(5 a + b/5)^2

(5 a + b/5) (5 a + b/5) = (5 a) (5 a) + (5 a) (b/5) + (b/5) (5 a) + (b/5) (b/5):
5×5 a a + (5 a b)/5 + (5 b a)/5 + (b b)/(5×5)

(5 a b)/5 = 5/5×a b = a b:
5×5 a a + a b + (5 b a)/5 + (b b)/(5×5)

(b×5 a)/5 = 5/5×b a = b a:
5×5 a a + a b + b a + (b b)/(5×5)

Combine powers. (b b)/(5×5) = (b^(1 + 1))/(5×5):
5×5 a a + a b + b a + (b^(1 + 1))/(5×5)

1 + 1 = 2:
5×5 a a + a b + b a + (b^2/5)/5

5 a×5 a = 5×5 a^2:
5×5 a^2 + a b + b a + (b^2/5)/5

5×5 = 25:
Answer:  25 a^2 + a b + b a + (b^2/5)/5
