Answer:
a) $3480
b) $4036.8
Step-by-step explanation:
The compound interest formula is given by:

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.
Suppose that $3000 is placed in an account that pays 16% interest compounded each year.
This means, respectively, that 
So



(a) Find the amount in the account at the end of 1 year.
This is A(1).


(b) Find the amount in the account at the end of 2 years.
This is A(2).

Answer:
1) √248 = ± 15.7480157
2)√63 = ± 7.93725393
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm assuming that the diagonals intersect at E. Since diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other, BE=ED.
- 7x-2=x²-10
- x²-7x-8=0
- (x-8)(x+1)=0
- x = -1, 8
As distance must be positive, we reject the negative case, so x=8.
Thus, BE=ED=54.
Answer: 12 red balls must be added
Step-by-step explanation:
Starting out with 15 balls, 6 red implies 9 blue. If blue remains 9, then we expect red to be 18 for a probability at 2/3. 18-6 = 12
