Compound interest formula = a=P(1+r/n)^nt

P= lump sum to deposit (solving for)

A= amount accumulated over the entire time (20000)

n= number of times interest is compounded annually (1)

r= rate of interest (0.82)

T= total number of years (15)

20000=P(1+0.082/1)^1*15

20000=P(1.082)^15
20000=P(3.26143638)
20000/3.26143638=P
P=$6132.2674

Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

\large \boxed{12}

Step-by-step explanation:

We can apply Pythagoras' Theorem.

\begin{array}{rcc}a^{2} & = & b^{2} + c^{2}\\13^{2}& = & 5^{2} + c^{2}\\169& = & 25 + c^{2}\\c^{2}& = & 144\\c & = & \sqrt{144}\\& = & \mathbf{12}\\\end{array}\\\text{The other leg of the triangle is $\large \boxed{\mathbf{12}}$}

Quadrilateral ABCD ​ is inscribed in this circle.
Sedbober [7]
The answer to this is 65. 

Remember that the angles opposite of each other equal to 180. So a+c=180 and b+d=180. 

First, we solve for x. Since we know that b and d equal to 180, we subtract 148 from 180. 
180-148=32. x=32. 

Then we plug that in the expression for angle a. 
2x+1 becomes 2(32)+1
2*32=64
64+1=65.
a=65

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

About 5 hr 10 min  

Step-by-step explanation:

rate 1   = 1  pool / 9 hrs          rate 2 = 1 pool / 12 hours

now find the time with both rates combined

1 pool / ( 1/9 + 1/12)  =   1/ (7/36)  =   36/7 hr  = 5 1/7 hr = 5 hr 8.6 min
