Find the balance in an account when $500 is deposited at 4% interest compounded semi-annually for 2 years

Mathematics

Answer:

$541.22

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Amount deposited (principal) is $500

Rate of interest is 4%

Time = 2 years

We are required to determine amount in the account after 2 years

Interest periods, n = 4 (since the money was compounded semi-annually)

rate of interest, r = 2%

Using the compound  interest formula;

Amount, A = P (1 + r/100)^n

Therefore;

Amount = $500 (1 + 2/100)^4

             = $500 × 1.02^4

            = $541.22

Therefore, the balance in the account after 2 years is $541.22

A pair of pants with a marked price of $35.00 has a discount of 20%. How much is the discount? Can someone help me learn to do p
andreyandreev [35.5K]
When you see a "%" you need to ask " a percent of what"?

Here, it's a percent of the original prize, so the discount is 20% of the original prize, that is 20% of 35.

20% is also 20/100 or 1/5, so we can calculate this like this:

\frac{1}{5} *35=7

so the discount is 7 dollars.

Determine if AB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ and CD¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ are parallel, perpendicular, or neither. Given: A (−1, 3), B (0, 5), C (2, 1), D (6, −1)
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine if AB and CD are  parallel, perpendicular, or neither, we need to get the slope of AB and CD first

Given A (−1, 3), B (0, 5),

Slope Mab = 5-3/0-(-1)

Mab = 2/1

Mab = 2

Slope of AB is 2

Given C (2, 1), D (6, −1)

Slope Mcd = -1-1/6-2

Mcd = -2/4

Mcd = -1/2

Slope of CD is -1/2

Take their product

Mab * Mcd = 2 * -1/2

Mab * Mcd = -1

Since the product of their slope is -1, hence AB and CD are perpendicular
