Answer:

The answer is (B) not all teams are created alike.

On January 1, 1997, an investment account is worth 100,000. On April 1, 1997, the value has increased to 103,000 and 8,000 is wi

loris [4]

Answer:

(B) 6.25%

Explanation:

January 1, 1997 = $100,000

April 1. 1997 = $103,000 - $8,000 = $95,000

January 1, 1999 = $103,992

annual interest rate for 1997 = i = (x - 100,000 + 8,000) / [100,000 - 8,000(1 - ³/₁₂) = (x - 100,000 + 8,000) / [100,000 - 8,000(1 - 0.25) = (x - 92,000) / 94,000

x = 92,000 + 94,000i

annual interest rate for 1998 = 1 + i = 103,992/x

x = 103,992/(1 + i)

0 = x(1 + i) - 103,992

now we replace x by 92,000 + 94,000i

0 = (92,000 + 94,000i)(1 + i) - 103,992

0 = (94,000 (1 + i) - 2,000)(1 + i) - 103,992

we now replace 1 + i by Y

0 = (94,000Y - 2,000)Y - 103,992

0 = 94,000Y² - 2,000Y - 103,992

using a calculator, Y = 6.25%
