Answer:

n =2

Step-by-step explanation:

Compound interest:

The compound interest formula is given by:

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

Where A(t) is the amount of money after t years, P is the principal(the initial sum of money), r is the interest rate(as a decimal value), n is the number of times that interest is compounded per year and t is the time in years for which the money is invested or borrowed.

In this question:

The money is compounded every 6 months.

n is the number of times that interest is compounded per year.

Each 6 months means 12/6 = twice a year. So n =2..

A circular plate has a radius of 13 centimeters.

butalik [34]

To solve the problem, we need to get the formula for area of a circle -
Area = pi * r^2; r= radius
= 3.14 * (13cm)^2
= 3.14 * 169cm^2 or 3.14 * 13^2cm^2
= 530.66cm^2
Therefore, the area of the circular plate is 530.66cm^2

Norma-Jean [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 40 DuBois students going on a field trip.

Each one pays their teacher $8.75 to cover admission to the museum and lunch.

Admission for the students is $120 and each one gets an equal amount to spend on lunch.

To Find :

How much will each DuBois student be able to spend on lunch.

Solution :

Amount they paid for admission :

\begin{gathered}P =\$ \dfrac{120}{40}\\\\P=\$3\end{gathered}P=$40120P=$3

Now, amount of money to spend on lunch is 8.75 -8.75−3 = $5.75 .

Hence, this is the required solution.

On a test, wrong answers are worth -5.25 points and right answers are worth 3.5 points. So far, Marshall has one right answer an

Over [174]

Answer:

Marshall's current score is - 1.75 points

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question,

Wrong answers are worth -5.25 points and right answers are worth 3.5 points.

Currently, Marshall has one right answer and one wrong answer.

To determine Marshall's current score, we will multiply the number of right answers has by 3.5 points and multiply the number of wrong answers by -3.5 points and then add the results.

Number of right answers = 1

Number of wrong answers = 1

For the right answer, he has

1 × 3.5 points = 3.5 points

For the wrong answer, he has

1 × - 5.25 points = -5.25 points

Hence, Marshall's current score is

3.5 points + ( -5.25 points) = 3.5 points - 5.25 points

= - 1.75 points.

Hence, Marshall's current score is - 1.75 points.

15+0= 15

Ksju [112]

First of all, let's take a look on the question.

$\large{15 + 0 = 15}$

Here, 0 is added to 15 and the resultant is 15 only. So, we can say that 0 when added with any number gives the same number as the resultant.

So, the property is known as Identity property because 0 is added to get the identity of the same number.

The Correct Option:

$\large{ \boxed{ \red{ \bf{Option \: C}}}}$

So, let's know more...

Commutative property ➝ a + b = b + a
Associative property ➝ a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c
Distributive property ➝ a(b + c) = ab + ac

So this is the general form of these properties which is general observed in the rational numbers.
