Answer:

She needs to invest $13,636.36 right now

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a simple interest problem.

The simple interest formula is given by:

$E = P*I*t$

In which E is the amount of interest earned, P is the principal(the initial amount of money), I is the interest rate(yearly, as a decimal) and t is the time.

After t years, the total amount of money is:

$T = E + P$

In this question:

In 15 years, so $t = 15$

She wants to have $30,000, so $T = 30000$

8% interest, so $I = 0.08$

We have to find P.

$T = E + P$

$30000 = E + P$

$E = 30000 - P$

Replacing:

$E = P*I*t$

$30000 - P = P*0.08*15$

$30000 - P = 1.2P$

$2.2P = 30000$

$P = \frac{30000}{2.2}$

$P = 13636.36$

She needs to invest $13,636.36 right now

What is the GCF for 84 and 90

vivado [14]

Answer:

The GCF for 84 and 90 is 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

The factors of 84 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, <u>6</u>, 7, 12, 14, 21, 28, 42, 84

The factors of 90 are: 1, 2, 3, 5, <u>6</u>, 9, 10, 15, 18, 30, 45, 90

Then the greatest common factor is 6.

evaluate the line integral ∫cf⋅dr, where f(x,y,z)=5xi−yj+zk and c is given by the vector function r(t)=⟨sint,cost,t⟩, 0≤t≤3π/2.

meriva

We have

$\displaystyle \int_C \vec f \cdot d\vec r = \int_0^{\frac{3\pi}2} \vec f(\vec r(t)) \cdot \dfrac{d\vec r}{dt} \, dt$

and

$\vec f(\vec r(t)) = 5\sin(t) \, \vec\imath - \cos(t) \, \vec\jmath + t \, \vec k$

$\vec r(t) = \sin(t)\,\vec\imath + \cos(t)\,\vec\jmath + t\,\vec k \implies \dfrac{d\vec r}{dt} = \cos(t) \, \vec\imath - \sin(t) \, \vec\jmath + \vec k$

so the line integral is equilvalent to

$\displaystyle \int_C \vec f \cdot d\vec r = \int_0^{\frac{3\pi}2} (5\sin(t) \cos(t) + \sin(t)\cos(t) + t) \, dt$

$\displaystyle \int_C \vec f \cdot d\vec r = \int_0^{\frac{3\pi}2} (6\sin(t) \cos(t) + t) \, dt$

$\displaystyle \int_C \vec f \cdot d\vec r = \int_0^{\frac{3\pi}2} (3\sin(2t) + t) \, dt$

$\displaystyle \int_C \vec f \cdot d\vec r = \left(-\frac32 \cos(2t) + \frac12 t^2\right) \bigg_0^{\frac{3\pi}2}$

$\displaystyle \int_C \vec f \cdot d\vec r = \left(\frac32 + \frac{9\pi^2}8\right) - \left(-\frac32\right) = \boxed{3 + \frac{9\pi^2}8}$

Given directed line segment AB determine point X on the graph such that X partions the segment A to B in a ratio of 1:4 and give

Viktor [21]

Answer:

The coordinates of point X that divides the line in 1:4 are: (3,8/5)

Step-by-step explanation:

When a point divides a line with coordinates (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) in ratio m:n,

the coordinates of point are given by:

$(x,y) = (\frac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n} , \frac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n})$

Given points are:

(x1,y1) = (5,1)

(x2,y2) = (-5,4)

Putting the values in the formula

$X(x,y) = (\frac{(1)(-5)+(4)(5)}{1+4} , \frac{(1)(4)+(4)(1)}{1+4})\\= (\frac{-5+20}{5}, \frac{4+4}{5})\\=(\frac{15}{5}, \frac{8}{5})\\=(3,\frac{8}{5})$

Hence,

The coordinates of point X that divides the line in 1:4 are: (3,8/5)
