Answer:

Ans. Effective annual rate=1.8928%

Annual Compound semi-annually=1.8839%

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, this is the formula to find the effective annual rate for this zero-coupon bond.

EffectiveAnnualRate=\sqrt[n]{\frac{FaceValue}{Price} } -1

n= years to maturity

That is:

EffectiveAnnualRate=\sqrt[8]{\frac{50,000}{43,035} } -1=0.018928

Means that the effective interest rate is 1.8928% effective annual

Now, let´s find the compound interest rate.

First, we have to turn this rate effective semi-annually

Semi-AnnualRate=(1+0.018928)^{\frac{1}{2} }  -1=0.00942

0.942% effective semi annual

To turn this into a semi-annual, compounded semi-annually, we just have to multiply by 2, so we get.

1.8839% compounded semi-annually

Best of luck

Explain how to use the discriminant to determine the number and type of roots of a quadratic equation.
baherus [9]

The general form of the quadratic equation is :

ax^2+bx+c=0

The discriminant is :

D=b^2-4\cdot a\cdot c

And the general solution is :

x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt[]{D}}{2\cdot a}

So, there are 3 situations for D

1. D = 0

So, the roots of a quadratic equation are two similar roots

2. D > 0

so, roots of a quadratic equation are two different roots

3. D < 0

so, roots of a quadratic equation are not real, two comlex roots

Can someone help me with number 8 plz
statuscvo [17]
We have the following equation:
 h (t) = - 16t ^ 2 + 161t + 128
 We substitute the value of h (t) = 170:
 170 = -16t ^ 2 + 161t + 128
 We rewrite the equation:
 -16t ^ 2 + 161t + 128 - 170 = 0
 -16t ^ 2 + 161t - 42 = 0
 We look for the roots of the equation:
 t1 = (161/32) + root (23233) / 32
 t2 = (161/32) - root (23233) / 32
 Answer:
 
The object is 170 feet off the ground at the following times:
 
t1 = (161/32) + root (23233) / 32
 
t2 = (161/32) - root (23233) / 32
