Answer:

Account A will earn approximately $7 more in interest than account B

Step-by-step explanation:

Compound interest formula:

A = P*(1 + r/n)^(n*t)

where:

A is the amount

P is the principal = $6,000

r is the rate (as a decimal) = 0.02

t is time in years = 3

n is the the number of times interest is compounded per unit t = 1

Then:

A = 6000*(1 + 0.02/1)^(1*3) = $6367

Simple interest formula:

A = P*(1 + r*t)

Replacing with data:

A = P*(1 + 0.02*3) = $6360

What is the decimal multiplier to decrease by 2.7%?
MatroZZZ [7]

Multiplying by 1 keeps it the same. A number greater than 1 would be an increase and a number below 1 would be a decrease.

The decrease is 2.7% which is written as 0.027 as a decimal.

Subtract that from 1:

1 - 0.027 = 0.973

The multiplier would be 0.973

A circlular fountain 10 feet in diameter has a circular walk 3 feet high paved around it what is the area of the walk
Lynna [10]
We subtract the area of the fountain (a(f)) from the total area of the fountain + walk (a(t)), to find the area of the walk (a(w))

diameter of fountain = 10 so r = 5
a(f) = pi*r^2 = pi*25 = 78.5

r of fountain + walk = 5 + 3 = 8
a(t) = pi*r^2 = pi*64 = 200.96

a(w) = a(t) - a(f) = 200.96 - 78.5 = 122.46 square feet

A group of students are intending to offer a present to a friend. If each one pays 3000 LL.
Elanso [62]

Answer:

There are 8 friends and the presents costs $30,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of students and y be the price of the present. Their contributions can be expressed as:

3000x=y-6000\ \ \ \  \ \ ...i\\\\4000x=y+2000\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \...ii

#Make y the subject in equation i then substitute in ii:

y=3000x+6000\\\\\#substitute \ in \ ii\\\\4000x=y+2000\\\\4000x=(3000x+6000)+2000\\\\1000x=8000\\\\x=8\\\\y=3000\times 8+6000\\\\y=30000

Hence, there are 8 friends and the present is priced at $30,000
