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

Mrs.Kunkleman asks her students to write the Pythagorean theorem in their own words
masha68 [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean theorem can be understood as a mathematical relationship between the sides of a right triangle that helps to understand geometric problems in real situations, such as finding measurements, calculating areas, etc.

The theorem says that the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other sides.

In a right triangle the hypotenuse is the longest side of the triangle, on the side opposite to its longest angle, and the other two sides will be the sides. So the Pythagorean theorem formula is:

a² = b² + c²

where a represents the hypotenuse and b and c the other sides.

If the difference between a number and 21 is divided by2, the result is 4 times the number. What is the number
Ostrovityanka [42]
(n-21)/2=4n is the equation

First, divide what is in the parentheses by 2
0.5n-10.5=4n

Then, multiply the whole equation by 2 so we have all whole numbers
n-21=8n

Move N so that it is with 8n
7n=-21

Divide 21 by 7
n=-3

Solution: The number (n) is equal to -3
