Answer: $15385 should be deposited.

Step-by-step explanation:

The principal was compounded monthly. This means that it was compounded 12 times in a year. So

n = 12

The rate at which the principal was compounded is 7.8%. So

r = 7.8/100 = 0.078

It was compounded for 4 years. Therefore,

t = 4

The formula for compound interest is

A = P(1+r/n)^nt

A = total amount in the account at the end of t years. The total amount is given as $21000. Therefore

21000 = P (1+0.078/12)^12×4

21000 = P (1+0.078/12)^48

21000 = P (1+0.0065)^48

21000 = P (1.0065)^48

P = 21000/1.365

P = $15385

Water pours into a tank at the rate of 2000 cm3/min. The tank is cylindrical with radius 2 meters. How fast is the height of wat
Gennadij [26K]

Volume of water in the tank:

V=\pi (2\,\mathrm m)^2h=\pi(200\,\mathrm{cm})^2h

Differentiate both sides with respect to time <em>t</em> :

\dfrac{\mathrm dV}{\mathrm dt}=\pi(200\,\mathrm{cm})^2\dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dt}

<em>V</em> changes at a rate of 2000 cc/min (cubic cm per minute); use this to solve for d<em>h</em>/d<em>t</em> :

2000\dfrac{\mathrm{cm}^3}{\rm min}=\pi(40,000\,\mathrm{cm}^2)\dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dt}

\dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dt}=\dfrac{2000}{40,000\pi}\dfrac{\rm cm}{\rm min}=\dfrac1{20\pi}\dfrac{\rm cm}{\rm min}

(The question asks how the height changes at the exact moment the height is 50 cm, but this info is a red herring because the rate of change is constant.)
