The ratio of quarters to dimes is not still 5 : 3

Solution:

Given that ratio of quarters to dimes in a coin collection is 5:3 .

You add same number of new quarters as dimes to the collection .

Need to check if ratio of quarters to dimes is still 5 : 3

As ratio of dimes and quarters is 5 : 3

lets assume initially number of quarters = 5x and number of dimes = 3x.

Now add same number of new quarters as dimes to the collection

Let add "x" number of quarters and "x" number of dimes

So After adding,

Number of quarters = initially number of quarters + added number of quarters = 5x + x = 6x

Number of dimes = initially number of dimes + added number of dimes

= 3x + x = 4x

New ratio of quarters to dimes is 6x : 4x = 3 : 2

So we have seen here ratio get change when same number of new quarters and dimes is added to the collection

Ratio get change from 5 : 3 when same number of new quarters and dimes is added to the collection and new ratio will depend on number of quarters and dimes added to collection.

George wants to invest $20,000 One investment pays interest at a rate of 18 2/3% while another pays interest at a rate of 0.1872

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Investment with interest rate 0.1872 is better

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

George investment principal = $20,000

The Rate of interest (R1) = 18 $\frac{2}{3}$ % = $\frac{56}{3}$ %

I.e R1 = 18.67 %

Again The The Rate of interest (R2) = 0.1872 = 18.72 %

Let the time period for both rate of interest = 1 years

Now from compound interest method

Amount = Principal × $(1 + \frac{Rate}{100})^{Time}$

Or, A 1 = $ 20 , 000 × $(1 + \frac{18.67}{100})^{1}$

Or, A 1 = $ 20 ,000 × 1.1867

∴ A 1 = $ 23,734

And A 2 = $ 20 , 000 × $(1 + \frac{18.72}{100})^{1}$

Or, A 2 = $ 20 ,000 × 1.1872

∴ A 2 = $ 23,744

Hence From the calculation of both amount it is clear that , investment with interest rate 0.1872 is better . Answer

Answer:

$41.1units^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

$A=\frac{h_{b}b }{2} \\=\frac{8*4}{2} \\=16units^2$ (triangle)

$A=\frac{\pi r^2}{2}\\\frac{\pi 4^2}{2}\\=25.13units^2$ (semicircle)

Add both together

$16+25.13\\=41.13units^2$

For the function g(x)=3-8(1/4)^2-x

Reika [66]

Using function concepts, it is found that:

a) The y-intercept is y = 2.5.

b) The horizontal asymptote is x = 3.

c) The function is decreasing.

d) The domain is $(-\infty,\infty)$ and the range is $(-\infty,3)$ .
e) The graph is given at the end of the answer.

------------------------------------

The given function is:

$g(x) = 3 - 8\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{2-x}$

------------------------------------

Question a:

The y-intercept is g(0), thus:

$g(0) = 3 - 8\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{2-0} = 3 - 8\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{2} = 3 - \frac{8}{16} = 3 - 0.5 = 2.5$

The y-intercept is y = 2.5.

------------------------------------

Question b:

The horizontal asymptote is the limit of the function when x goes to infinity, if it exists.

$\lim_{x \rightarrow -\infty} g(x) = \lim_{x \rightarrow -\infty} 3 - 8\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{2-x} = 3 - 8\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{2+\infty} = 3 - 8\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{\infty} = 3 - 8\frac{1^{\infty}}{4^{\infty}} = 3 -0 = 3$

--------------------------------------------------

$\lim_{x \rightarrow \infty} g(x) = \lim_{x \rightarrow \infty} 3 - 8\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{2-x} = 3 - 8\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{2-\infty} = 3 - 8\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{-\infty} = 3 - 8\times 4^{\infty} = 3 - \infty = -\infty$

Thus, the horizontal asymptote is x = 3.

--------------------------------------------------

Question c:

The limit of x going to infinity of the function is negative infinity, which means that the function is decreasing.

--------------------------------------------------

Question d:

Exponential function has no restrictions in the domain, so it is all real values, that is $(-\infty,\infty)$ .
From the limits in item c, the range is: $(-\infty,3)$

--------------------------------------------------

The sketching of the graph is given appended at the end of this answer.
