Answer:

Option 2 will earn Hannah the most amount of money

$2176.885, 12 years

18 years, $2369.9

N.B: These are the future values of her earnings which is the principal plus compound interests after the respective years. Each compound interest is calculated in the explanation below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hannah is trying to select an option to go for in an investment using two different compound interest rate at different years.

To calculate the amount she will accumulate at the end of the respective years using compound interest, we use the formula:

A = P (1 + r/n) ^ nt

Where A= Amount I.e future value of her investment including Interest.

P= Principal amount to be invested

r= annual interest rate

n= number of times the interest was compounded

t= time the money was invested for (in years)

Based on this, let's calculate the earnings for each option Hannah has.

For the first option:

A= ?

P= $1000

r= 6.5% = 0.065

n= 12 (Interest will compound 12 times in 12 years)

t= 12 years

Hence, the formula:

A = 1000 (1 + 0.065/12) ^ 12×12

A= 1000 (1.005416) ^ 144

A= 1000 × 2.1768

A= 2176.8

Hence, the value of Hannah's investment after 12 years at 6.5% interest will be $2176.8.

The compound interest (I) = A - P

= 2176.8 - 1000 = $1176.8

For the second option,

A= ?

P= $1000

r= 4.8% = 0.048

n= 18 (Interest will compound 18 times in 18 years)

t= 18 years

Hence, the formula:

A = 1000 (1 + 0.048/18) ^ 18×18

A= 1000 (1.00266) ^ 324

A= 1000 × 2.3699

A= 2369.9

Hence, the value of Hannah's investment after 18 years at 4.8% interest will be $2369.9

The compound interest (I) = A - P

= 2369.9 - 1000 = $1369.9

Therefore, Hannah should select the first option, because she will earn -$1176.8- money in only -12-years, which is sooner than having to wait for -18- years and a total of -$1369.9- money, which is only a little than the first option.

Answer:

choice 2) area = 319.2 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

triangular ends = 6.9 x 8 = 55.2

sides = 3 x 8 x 11 = 264

264 + 55.2 = 319.2 in²

Answer:

x = 81

Step-by-step explanation:

using the rule of logarithms

$log_{b}$ x = n ⇒ x = $b^{n}$

given

$log_{3}$ x = 4 , then

x = $3^{4}$ = 81

A rectangular piece of metal is 30 in longer than it is wide. Squares with sides 6 in long are cut from the four corners and the

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

length=53 in

width= 23 in

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we know that each corner has now a square of 6 in long, so the heigth of the box will be of this size (as you can see in the picture attached). Then, the length and the width of the box would be the same as the piece, but with 12 in less. Therefore the equations to solve the problem are:

$h=6 in\\w=x-12\\l=x+30-12\\l=x+18\\\\V: volume of the box\\V=6*(x-12)*(x+18)\\2706=6x^{2}+36x-1296\\0=6x^{2}+36x-4002\\\\$

We factorize the 6 and we get:

$0=x^{2}+6x-667\\$

Finally we solve for x, and we get the initial dimensions of the piece of metal:

$x=23$ $l=30+x=30+23=53 in\\w=x= 23 in$

Dolbear's law states the relationship between the rate at which Snowy Tree Crickets chirp and the air temperature of their envi

tia_tia [17]

I assume that if we write the equation in its mathematical form it will appear like this:
T = 50 + (N - 40)/4
Substituting the value of T given,
58 = 50 + (N-40)/4
The value of N from the generated equation above is equal to 72. Therefore, the Snowy Tree Crickets chirp 72 times per minute at a temperature of 58°F.
