Answer: k = {8, -8}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

In order for a quadratic equation to have exactly one solution, the discriminant must equal zero. → b² - 4ac = 0

4x² + kx + 4 = 0

↓ ↓ ↓

a=4 b=k c=4

b² - 4ac = 0

k² - 4(4)(4) = 0

k² = 64

k = √64

k = ± 8

Suppose you invest $16000 at 9% interest and that it is compounded daily. How much will you have in 8 years?

kramer

Answer:

The amount after 8 years is $ 16,031.579

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The Principal invested = $ 16000

The rate of interest compounded daily = 9 %

The time period = 8 years

Let The amount after 8 years = $ A

<u>From Compounded method </u>

Amount = Principal invested × $(1+\dfrac{\textrm Rate}{365\times 100})^{365\times \textrm Time}$

Or, Amount = 16000 × $(1+\dfrac{\textrm 9}{365\times 100})^{365\times \textrm 8}$

Or, Amount = 16000 × $(1.0002465)^{8}$

∴ Amount = $ 16,031.579

Hence The amount after 8 years is $ 16,031.579 Answer

Answer:

The perimeter of a shape is the sum of the measurements of all sides. Since a rectangle have equal lengths and widths, you can just add the numbers twice.

So, 15 + 15 + 8 + 8. So the perimeter is 46 cm.
