Answer:

Use the formula for calculating compound interest PN=P0(1+rk)Nk where P0 is the unknown, PN=10,000, N=10, k=1, and r=0.015. Substitute the values into the formula and simplify.

10000=P(1+0.0151)1⋅10

10000=P(1.015)10

10000=P(1.16054...)

8616.67=P

Therefore, rounded to the nearest dollar, the initial investment needs to be $8617 to have $10,000 in 10 years.

Need help on math You have a meal at a restaurant. The sale tax is 8% . You leave a tip for the waitress that is 20% of the pret

DerKrebs [107]

Answer: $18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x= Pretax price of the meal.

Given: Sales tax = 8%

Tip percent = 20%

As per given ,

Amount spent = ( Pretax price) + (Sales tax ) of (Pretax price) + (Tip percent)of (Pretax price)

= x+ 8% of x + 20% of x

= x +0.08+0.20x

= 1.28x

∵ Amount spent = $23.04

So,

$1.28x=23.04\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{23.04}{1.28}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=18$

Hence, the pretax price of the meal= $18.

The dimensions of a rectangle are such that its length is 3 in more than its width if the length were doubled and if the width w

emmasim [6.3K]

Length (L): w + 3 ⇒2(w + 3)

width (w): w ⇒ w - 1

Area (A) = L x w

A = (w + 3)(w)

A = w² + 3w

*******************************************

A + 176 = 2(w + 3)(w - 1)

(w² + 3w) + 176 = 2(w + 3)(w - 1)

w² + 3w + 176 = 2w² + 4w - 6

3w + 176 = w² + 4w - 6

176 = w² + w - 6

0 = w² + w - 182

0 = (w - 13) (w + 14)

0 = w - 13 0 = w + 14

w = 13 w = -14

Since width cannot be negative, disregard -14

w = 13

Length (L): w + 3 = (13) + 3 = 16

Answer: width = 13 in, length = 16 in
