Answer: $11,940.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard formula for compound interest is given as;

A = P(1+r/n)^(nt)  .....1

Where;

A = final amount/value

P = initial amount/value (principal)

r = rate yearly

n = number of times compounded yearly.

t = time of investment in years

For this case;

Since we want to determine the value that will be equivalent to $10,000 in 3years.

P = $10,000

t = 3years

n = 2 (semiannually)

r = 6% = 0.06

Using equation 1.

A = 10,000(1+0.06/2)^(2×3)

A = 10,000(1.03)^6

A = 10,000(1.194052296529)

A = $11,940.5

juin [17]
This is a proportion question. We can express this as an equation where the answer is x:

\frac{1}{250} = \frac{x}{378}

From there, you can just cross-multiply and divide to get:

\frac{1 * 378}{250}

A tenth of 250 is 25, so this is roughly \frac{375}{250} or \frac{17}{10}, so it'll be approximately 1.7 inches on the map.

Answer:

2m - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify this, we need to combine like terms. m + m = 2m and -4 - 5 = -9 so the simplified version would be 2m - 9.
