The average yearly growth rate of the height of the tree was 2.2 feet per year during the 7 1/2 years.
Answer:
the rate compounded semi-annually is compounded twice in a year. thus, this rate is higher than the rate compounded annually which is compounded once in a year
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for calculating future value:
FV = P (1 + r/m)^mn
FV = Future value
P = Present value
R = interest rate
N = number of years
m = number of compounding
For example, there are two banks
Bank A offers 10% rate with semi-annual compounding
Bank B offers 10% rate with annual compounding.
If you deposit $100, the amount you would have after 2 years in each bank is
A = 100x (1 + 0.1/2)^4 = 121.55
B = 100 x (1 + 0.1)^2 = 121
The interest in bank a is 0.55 higher than that in bank B
Answer:
$95, $115, $135, $155
Step-by-step explanation:
If the first person gets x dollars:
the next person gets 20 more, so x + 20 dollars
the next person gets x + 40 dollars
and the last person gets x + 60 dollars
We add all these allocations together, and we get $500
x + (x + 20) + (x + 40) + (x + 60) = 500
Combine like terms
4x + 120 = 500
Subtract 120 on both sides
4x = 380
Divide by 4 on both sides
x = 95
So the first person gets $95.
The second person must get $115
The third must get $135
And the fourth must get $155
Checking our work:
95 + 115 + 135 + 155 = 500
Answer:
2 teams
Step-by-step explanation:
13 divided by 5 is 2.6, but you cannot split a person in half, so it would be two teams with a remainder of three people.
