Amount obtained in Compound interest is given by :

\bigstar\;\;\boxed{\mathsf{Amount = Principal\bigg(1 + \dfrac{Rate\;of \;interest}{100}\bigg)^{Conversion\;periods}}}

Note : Conversion period is the time from one interest period to the next interest period. If the interest is compounded annually then there is one conversion period in an year. If the interest is compounded semi-annually then there are two conversion periods in an year. if the interest is compounded quarterly then there are four conversion periods in an year.

<u>Problem</u> :

Given : $500 is invested for one year at 4% annual interest

\implies\boxed{\begin{minipage}{4 cm}\bigstar\;\;\textsf{Principal = 500}\\\\\bigstar\;\;\textsf{Time period = 1 year}\\\\\bigstar\;\;\textsf{Rate of interest = 4\%}\end{minipage}}

As the question mentions the term ''compounded quarterly'', there are 4 conversion periods in a year.

If the interest is compounded quarterly, then the rate of interest per conversion period (quarter) will be :

\implies \mathsf{\left(\dfrac{1}{4} \times 4\%\right) = 1\%}

Substituting all the values in the Amount formula of C.I, We get :

\mathsf{\implies Amount = 500\bigg(1 + \dfrac{1}{100}\bigg)^4}

\mathsf{\implies Amount = 500\left(1 + 0.01\right)^4}

\mathsf{\implies Amount = 500\left(1.01\right)^4}

\mathsf{\implies Amount = 520.30}

We know that : Interest = Amount - Principal

:\implies  Interest = 520.30 - 500

:\implies  Interest = $20.30

Find the equation of the circle with center (4,5) which passes through the y-intercept of the line 5x-2y+6=0​
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

(x-4)^2 + (y-5)^2 = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearrange the line equation of 5x - 2y + 6 = 0

So y = 5/2x +3

The y-intercept of the line equation is 3 as when x=0, y=3.

We know the Circle has the formula (x-4)^2 + (y-5)^2 = ?^2 from the question but with the intercept, we can find the entire equation as the y-intercept is (0,3) so we can substitute it into the equation to find the full equations so:

(0-4)^2 + (3-5)^2 = ?^2

This simplifies to:

(-4)^2 +(-2)^2 = ?^2

16 + 4 = 20 = ?^2

The answer is 20 so the equation of the circle is (x-4)^2 + (y-5)^2 = 20
