3 0

Answer:

$705.30,  $837.67,  $994.89 Respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

P= $500

r= 3.5%= 3.5/100= 0.035

Applying the compound interest formula we have

A= P(1+r)^t

where

A = final amount

P = initial principal balance

r = interest rate

t = number of time periods elapsed

<h2>1. for t= 10 years</h2>

A= 500(1+0.035)^1^0\\\ A= 500(1.035)^1^0\\\\ A= 500*1.410598\\\ A=705.299

A= $705.30

<h2>2. for t= 15 years</h2>

A= 500(1+0.035)^1^5\\\ A= 500(1.035)^15\\\\ A= 500*1.67534\\\ A=837.67

A= $837.67

<h2>3. for t= 20 years</h2><h2>A= 500(1+0.035)^2^0\\\ A= 500(1.035)^2^0\\\\ A= 500*1.98978\\\ A=994.89</h2><h2>A= $994.89</h2>

A village was founded four hundred years ago by a group of 20 people. In this village, the population triples every one hundred
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Treat this like compound interest:  Use A = P(1 + r)^t.

Here, P is the initial population and A is 3 times that, or 3P.  Since P = 20 people, 3P = 60 people,

and this population is reached after 100 years.

We need to determine r, substitute its value into the formula A = P(1 + r)^t, and then determine the population of the village after 400 years.

60 = 20(1 + r)^100

Simplifying, 3 = (1 + r)^100.

Taking the natural log of both sides,

ln 3 = 100 ln (1 + r), or

                   ln 3

ln (1 + r) = ---------------

                    100

              = 1.0986 / 100 = 0.01986

We must solve this for r.  Raising e to the power ln (1 + r), on the left side of an equation, and raising e to the power 0. 01986 on the right side, we get:

1 + r = 3, so r must = 2.

Now find the pop of the village today.  Use the same equation:  A = P (1+r)^t.

A = 20(1 +2)^4 (hundreds),

or

A = 20(3)^4, or

A = 81

The population after 400 years is 81.

A car passes a landmark traveling at a constant rate of 55 kilometers per hour. One hour later, a second car passes the same lan
yarga [219]
Recall your d = rt, distance = rate * time

one car is going at 55kph, at say hmmm "t" time
the second car zooms by at 75kph, an hour later, thus " t + 1 "

notice, overtaking the 1st car, simply means, the second car comes from behind approaches the first car from behind and "gets there", at that very second, both cars have travelled a distance, say "d"

if the first car travelled "d" kilometers
for the second car to "get there" has to had travelled "d" distance as well

\bf \begin{array}{lccclll}&#10;&distance&rate&time\\&#10;&-----&-----&-----\\&#10;\textit{first car}&d&55&t\\&#10;\textit{second car}&d&75&t+1&#10;\end{array}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\begin{cases}&#10;d=55t\\&#10;d=75(t+1)\\&#10;-------\\&#10;55t=75(t+1)&#10;\end{cases}

solve for "t"

Lola is making greeting cards, which she will sell by the box at an arts fair. She paid $50 for a booth at the fair, and the mat
Schach [20]

At some point, she will sell enough cards so that her sales cover her expenditures. So, the correct answer is ($40)

<h3> How did we figure this out?</h3>

Lola is making greeting cards, which she will sell by the box at an arts fair. She paid $50 for a booth at the fair, and the materials for each box of cards cost $8. She will sell the cards for $10 per box of cards.

We are going to use 50, 8 and 10 to find are answer.

Therefore, we are going to divide the numbers:

\boxed{50/10}

  • Division problem
  • 50/10
  • 8 x ? = 40
<h3 /><h3>What is the missing number?</h3>

First, we need to figure out 50/10:

\boxed{50/10=5}

\boxed{8x5=40}

5=40\\(50/10=5=8x5=40)

Therefore, at some point, she will sell enough cards so that her sales cover her expenditures. So, the correct answer is ($40)
