Answer:

The total investment is $5020.19

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : $2150 invested at 5.3% for 16 years and compounded continuously

To find : What is the total investment?

Solution :

The formula of continuously compounded interest is

$A = Pe^{rt}$

Where A = amount invested

P = principal = $2150

e = Euler's number (on calculator)

r = interest rate as decimal = 5.3%=0.053

t = time in years = 16 years

Substitute the value in the formula,

$A = Pe^{rt}$

$A = 2150\times e^{0.053\times 16}$

$A = 2150\times e^{0.848}$

$A = 2150\times 2.3349$

$A = 5020.19$

Therefore, Option 4 is correct.

The total investment is $5020.19.

Refer to the triangle below. If a = 4 and b = 6, solve for c. show work Also, give the unsimplified radical form answer and then

9966 [12]

Look at the image below where I labeled the sides

To solve this you must use Pythagorean theorem:

$a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}$

a and b are the legs (the sides that form a perpendicular/right angle)

c is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle)

In this case...

a = 4

b = 6

c = unknown

^^^Plug these numbers into the theorem

$4^{2} +6^{2} =c^{2}$

simplify

16 + 36 = $x^{2}$

52 = $x^{2}$

To remove the square from x take the square root of both sides to get you...

√52 = x

What is the difference in Fahrenheit degrees between a temperature of 0C and a temperature of 15C?

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

$27^{\circ}F$

Step-by-step explanation:

Use formula

$F=1.8C+32$

to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit.

When $C_1=0^{\circ}C,$ then

$F_1=1.8\cdot 0+32\\ \\F_1=32^{\circ}F$

When $C_2=15^{\circ}C,$ then

$F_2=1.8\cdot 15+32\\ \\F_2=27+32=59^{\circ}F$

Difference:

$F_2-F_1=59^{\circ}F-32^{\circ}F=27^{\circ}F$

A source of information randomly generates symbols from a four letter alphabet {w, x, y, z }. The probability of each symbol is

koban [17]

The expected length of code for one encoded symbol is

$\displaystyle\sum_{\alpha\in\{w,x,y,z\}}p_\alpha\ell_\alpha$

where $p_\alpha$ is the probability of picking the letter $\alpha$ , and $\ell_\alpha$ is the length of code needed to encode $\alpha$ . $p_\alpha$ is given to us, and we have

$\begin{cases}\ell_w=1\\\ell_x=2\\\ell_y=\ell_z=3\end{cases}$

so that we expect a contribution of

$\dfrac12+\dfrac24+\dfrac{2\cdot3}8=\dfrac{11}8=1.375$

bits to the code per encoded letter. For a string of length $n$ , we would then expect $E[L]=1.375n$ .

By definition of variance, we have

$\mathrm{Var}[L]=E\left[(L-E[L])^2\right]=E[L^2]-E[L]^2$

For a string consisting of one letter, we have

$\displaystyle\sum_{\alpha\in\{w,x,y,z\}}p_\alpha{\ell_\alpha}^2=\dfrac12+\dfrac{2^2}4+\dfrac{2\cdot3^2}8=\dfrac{15}4$

so that the variance for the length such a string is

$\dfrac{15}4-\left(\dfrac{11}8\right)^2=\dfrac{119}{64}\approx1.859$

"squared" bits per encoded letter. For a string of length $n$ , we would get $\mathrm{Var}[L]=1.859n$ .
