Answer:

8 cups disinfectant per 36 gallons of water

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes, set up an equation of ratios:

 2/3 cup disinfectant          3 gallons water        1

--------------------------------  =  -------------------------- = -----

                x                          36 gallons water      12

Cross multiplication yields  12(2/3 cup disinfectant) = 1x, so that:

x = 8 cups

8 cups of disinfectant are needed to make a solution involving 36 cups water.

yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

Results are below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Monthly deposit= $100

Interest rate= 0.06/12= 0.005

Number of periods= 12*5= 60 months

<u>a)</u>

<u>To calculate the future value, we need to use the following formula:</u>

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= monthly deposit

FV= {100*[(1.005^60) - 1]} / 0.005

FV= $6,977

b) <u>If the deposit is at the beginning of the month, the interest is compounded one more period</u>. We need to use the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i + {[A*(1+i)^n]-A}

FV= 6,977 + {[100*(1.005^60)] - 100}

FV= 6,977 + 35

FV= $7,012
