Gavin has $7,500 to invest. He is considering two investment options. Option A pays 4% simple interest. Option B pays 3.15% inte
Leviafan [203]

Solution:

Principal =P= $ 7,500

Option A→(Simple interest)

Rate of interest= R=4%

Time(T_{1})=4 years

Time(T_{2})=6 years

Amount= Principal + Interest(Simple or compound interest)

Formula for Simple interest

S.I=\frac{P\times R\times T}{100}

S.I_{1}=\frac{7500 *4*4}{100}=1200\\\\ S.I_{2}=\frac{7500 *4*6}{100}=1800

Total amount after 4 years when interest is simple= 7500 +1200= $ 8700

Total amount after 6 years  when interest is simple= 7500 +1800= $ 9300

Option B

Formula for amount(A) when interest is 3.15% compounded annually.

A=P*(1+\frac{R}{100})^t

A_{4}=7500*(1+\frac{3.15}{100})^4\\\\ A_{4}=7500*(\frac{103.15}{100})^4\\\\ A_{4}=7500*(1.0315)^4\\\\ A_{4}=7500*1.1320\\\\ A_{4}=8490.60

A_{6}=7500*(1+\frac{3.15}{100})^6\\\\ A_{6}=7500*(\frac{103.15}{100})^6\\\\ A_{6}=7500*(1.0315)^6\\\\ A_{6}=7500*1.2045\\\\ A_{6}=9033.9286

Total amount after 4 years when interest is compounded annually=$ 8491 (approx)

Total amount after 6 years  when interest is compounded annually=$ 9034(approx)

Merlin wants to make more money selling fake beards this month than he did last month. All black beards in his shop cost the sam
sukhopar [10]

We know that all black beards cost the same money

And all red beards cost $25

And B represents number of black beards

And R represents number of red beards

We have been given the inequality 20B+25R > 350 to show the target for this month.

The above inequality shows that Merlin needs to make more than 350, hence he made 350 last month

Further, it shows that B has been multiplied by 20, hence the black beard's cost was 20

Help, I’m stuck. Thank you very much
ZanzabumX [31]
If you notice, the container is really just two circles, with a diameter of 4 each, and a square with sides of 10.5.

now, if we just get the area of each circle, keeping in mind their radius is half of the diameter, namely r = 2, and get the area of the 10.5x10.5 square, sum them up, that'd be the surface area of the container.

\bf \stackrel{\textit{2 circle's area}}{2(\pi r^2)}~~+~~\stackrel{\textit{area of the square}}{10.5\cdot 10.5}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\stackrel{\textit{2 circle's area}}{2(\pi 2^2)}~~+~~\stackrel{\textit{area of the square}}{10.5\cdot 10.5}\implies 8\pi + 110.25

Which statement describes the graph?
max2010maxim [7]

Answer : D

From the given graph , we can see that

The graph crosses the y axis at 7

So y axis is (0,7)

The graph is increasing at first  and reaches (-2,8)  and then start  decreasing

The graph start increasing at x=-10  and goes on increasing till x= -2

then the graph start decreasing at x=-2  and goes in decreasing till x= 10

The graph crosses the y axis at (0,7), increasing from x=-10  to x=-2  and decreasing from x=-2 to x=10

Answer D is correct
