She should invest $6491.73.

The equation we use to solve this is in the form
A=p(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}, 
where A is the total amount in the account, p is the principal invested, r is the interest rate as a decimal, n is the number of times per year the interest is compounded, and t is the amount of time.

A in our problem is 14000.
p is unknown.
r is 6% = 6/100 = 0.06.
n is 2, since it is compounded semiannually.
t  is 13.

14000=p(1+\frac{0.06}{2})^{13*2}
\\
\\14000=p(1+0.03)^{26}
\\
\\14000=p(1.03)^{26}
\\
\\\text{Dividing both sides by }1.03^{26}\text{, we have}
\\
\\\frac{14000}{1.03^{26}}=\frac{p(1.03)^{26}}{1.03^{26}}
\\
\\6491.73\approx p

What is the main reason Dylan uses the word uses the word “lonesome” to describe Hattie Carroll’s death?
Nana76 [90]

The answer is actually B. No one stood up for her

The main point of the song is to show how racist we were as a country. Dylan focuses on the fact the killer wasn't given a sentence at all, the night of the murder he was released from custody because he was rich, and then in trial was only given 6-months rather than an actual sentence. Hattie Carroll wasn't even considered really.

What is the constant of proportionality for the relationship between the length of the arc intercepted by a 80 degree angle and
Over [174]
So the length of the arc is given by: l = r*theta, here theta is the intercepted angle in unit radian

So, 80 degrees = 80/360 * 2pi = 4/9 * pi 

So l = r * (4/9 * pi), the constant ratio is 4/9 * pi

A tree casts a shadow of 3 meters, while a meter stick casts a shadow of 0.75 meters. How tall is the tree?
Lunna [17]
3.75 meters I would presume.

Explanation: since a single meter casts a shadow of 0.75 meters that means for each meter, 0.25 meters are missing. So I added 0.75 to three, because there was 3 meters and 3 time 0.25 was 0.75 .
