The sum would amount to $10,527.75 after the end of 4 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Problem pertains to compounding interest with varying rates over the years. Our approach to solve the problem would be in a chronological fashion starting with the 1st year

Principal- $ 9000  

Rate interest= 4%

Time period would be 1 year since the interest are considered for successive years.

We know the formulae- Amount= Principal (1+rate/100) ⁿ

Where “n”= time period= 1 in all cases

⇒Amount after 1st year at 4% rate= 9000(1+4/100)  

9000*104/100= $ 9360

This amount would serve as Principal for 2nd year

⇒Hence, Amount for 2nd year at 5% rate= 9360(1+5/100)

9000*105/100= $ 9828

⇒Similarly, Amount for 3rd year at 4% rate= 9828(1+4/100)

=9828*104/100= $ 10,221.12

⇒Amount for the last year at 3% rate= 10,221.12(1+3/100)

=10,221.12*103/100= $ 10527.75

Hence the present value of the amount is $ 10527.75 after the end of 4 years.

Can someone help me find the area and perimeter please?​
Lelu [443]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that the formula to get the area of a right triangle is base times height divided by 2, so to find the area:

5 x 12 = 60/2 = 30

Area of this triangle is 30.

To find the perimeter, add all the sides:

5 + 12 + 13 = 30.

Perimeter of this triangle is 30.

Suppose that 2 people exercising in an enclosed room are each generating about 2.400 BTUs of body heat per
noname [10]

Answer:

0.002  BTUs per cubic foot heat is produced per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of person = 2

Amount of heat produced by one person = 2.400 BTU

Dimension of the room = 20 ft x 12 ft x 10 ft

To Find:

How many BTUs per cubic foot do they produce in 1 hour = ?

Solution:

E =\frac{ \text{(2400 Btu/ person hr}) (\text{Number of Hours}) (\text{Number of persons }) }{\text {volume of the room}}

Substituting the values

E = \frac{ \text{(2400 Btu/ person hr}) (1) ( 2) }{20 ft \times 12 ft \times 10 ft}

E = \frac{4.800}{2400}

E = 0.002  BTU per cubic feet
