Answer:

$25,626.53

Step-by-step explanation:

You are going to want to use the compound interest formula, which is shown below.

A=P(1+\frac{r}{n} )^{nt}

<em>P = initial balance</em>

<em>r = interest rate (decimal)</em>

<em>n = number of times compounded annually</em>

<em>t = time</em>

<em />

First, change 8.5% into a decimal:

8.5% -> \frac{8.5}{100} -> 0.085

Now lets plug in the values into the equation:

A=10,000(1+\frac{0.085}{12})^{12(15)}

A=35,626.53

Lastly, subtract the total from the initial balance:

35,626.53 - 10,000 = 25,626.53

Michelle earned $25,626.53 in interest.

Can a triangle have angle measures as 140,43, and 7
Mariulka [41]

The angles in a triangle always add up to exactly 180 degrees.  To see if this can be a triangle, add up the given angle measures.  If the sum is not 180, then it cannot be a triangle.

140+43+7=190

A triangle CANNOT have the angles measures as 140, 43, and 7.

Hope this helps!!
