Interest earned= $\frac{PRT}{100}$
I= $\frac{900*2.2*1.5}{100}$
I= <span>$ 29.70</span>

First observe that if $a+b>0$ ,

$(a + b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2 \\\\ \implies a + b = \sqrt{a^2 + 2ab + b^2} = \sqrt{a^2 + ab + b(a + b)} \\\\ \implies a + b = \sqrt{a^2 + ab + b \sqrt{a^2 + ab + b(a+b)}} \\\\ \implies a + b = \sqrt{a^2 + ab + b \sqrt{a^2 + ab + b \sqrt{a^2 + ab + b(a+b)}}} \\\\ \implies a + b = \sqrt{a^2 + ab + b \sqrt{a^2 + ab + b \sqrt{a^2 + ab + b \sqrt{\cdots}}}}$

Let $a=0$ and $b=x$ . It follows that

$a+b = x = \sqrt{x \sqrt{x \sqrt{x \sqrt{\cdots}}}}$

Now let $b=1$ , so $a^2+a=4x$ . Solving for $a$ ,

$a^2 + a - 4x = 0 \implies a = \dfrac{-1 + \sqrt{1+16x}}2$

which means

$a+b = \dfrac{1 + \sqrt{1+16x}}2 = \sqrt{4x + \sqrt{4x + \sqrt{4x + \sqrt{\cdots}}}}$

Now solve for $x$ .

$x = \dfrac{1 + \sqrt{1 + 16x}}2 \\\\ 2x = 1 + \sqrt{1 + 16x} \\\\ 2x - 1 = \sqrt{1 + 16x} \\\\ (2x-1)^2 = \left(\sqrt{1 + 16x}\right)^2$

(note that we assume $2x-1\ge0$ )

$4x^2 - 4x + 1 = 1 + 16x \\\\ 4x^2 - 20x = 0 \\\\ 4x (x - 5) = 0 \\\\ 4x = 0 \text{ or } x - 5 = 0 \\\\ \implies x = 0 \text{ or } \boxed{x = 5}$

(we omit $x=0$ since $2\cdot0-1=-1\ge0$ is not true)

Vending machines can be adjusted to reject coins above and below certain weights. The weights of legal U.S. quarters have a norm

tigry1 [53]

Answer: The percentage of legal quarters will be rejected by the vending machine = 2.275%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The weights of legal U.S. quarters have a normal distribution with a mean of 5.67 grams and a standard deviation of 0.07 gram.

Let x be the weights of legal U.S. quarters .

Required probability: $P(x5.81)$

$=P(\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\dfrac{5.81-5.67}{0.07})\\\\=P(z2)\approx0.02275 \ \ \ [By\ P-value\ calculator]$

The percentage of legal quarters will be rejected by the vending machine = 2.275%
