A dilation is a transformation, with center O and a scale factor of k that is not zero, that maps O to itself and any other point P to P'. The center O is a fixed point, P' is the image of P, points O, P and P' are on the same line.

Thus, a dilation with centre O and a scale factor of k maps the original figure to the image in such a way that the<span> distances from O to the vertices of the image are k times the distances from O to the original figure. Also the size of the image are k times the size of the original figure.

In the dilation of triangle TUV</span>, It is obvious that the image <span>T'U'V' is smaller than the original triangle TUV and hence the scale factor is less than 1.

</span>The ratio of the distances from A to the vertices of the image T'U'V'  to the distances from A to the original triangle TUV is the scale factor.

The scale factor = 3.2 / 4.8 = 2/3

How much more would $1,000 earn in 5 years in an account compounded continuously than an account compounded quarterly if the int
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer: There is a difference of $ 1.0228.

Explanation: Given, initial amount or principal = $ 1000,

Time= 5 years and given compound rate of interest = $3.7%

Now, Since the amount in compound continuously,

A= Pe^{rt} , where, r is the rate of compound interest, P is the principal amount and t is the time.

Here, P=$ 1000, t=5 years and r= $3.7%,

Thus, amount in compound continuously ,  A=1000e^{3.7\times5/100}

⇒A=1000e^{18.5}=1000\times 1.20321844013=1203.21844013

Therefore, interest in this compound continuously rate =1203.21844013-1000=203.21844013

now, Since the amount in compound quarterly,

A=P(1+\frac{r/4}{100} )^{4t}, where, r is the rate of compound interest, P is the principal amount and t is the time.

Thus, amount in compound quarterly, A=1000(1+\frac{3.7/4}{100} )^{4\times5}

⇒A=1000(1+\frac{3.7}{400} )^{20}

⇒A=1000(1+\frac{3.7}{400} )^{20}

⇒A= 1202.19567617

Therefore, interest in this compound quarterly rate=1202.19567617-1000=202.19567617

So, the difference in these interests=203.21844013-202.19567617=1.02276396 ≈1.0228
