1st year...
500 = 100%
5 = 1% 
2.5 = 1/2% or .5%
So, you have to do 5 x 7 to get 35 which is 7% then you have to tack on the 2.5 to get 7.5%

2nd year...
537.5 = 100%
5.375 = 1%
2.6875 = 1/2% or .5%
So now 5.375 x 7 = 37. 625 + 2.6875 (I will round at the end) = 40.3125
So 37.5 + 40.31 (rounding!) = 77.81 in interest so far.

3rd year...
537.5 + 40.31 = 577.81 = 100%
5.77 = 1%
2.89 (was 2.885 but round up) = 1/2% or .5%
so 5.77 x 7 = 40.39 + 2.89 = 43. 28 = 7.5%
577.81 + 43.28 = 621.09

4th year....
621.09 = 100%
6.21 = 1%
3.11 (was 3.105, but round up)
6.21 x 7 = 43.47 + 3.11 = 46.58
621.09 + 46.58 = 667.67

5th year...
667.67 = 100%
6.68 (round up) = 1%
3.34 = 1/2% or .5%
6.68 x 7 = 46.76 + 3.34 = 50.1
667.67 + 50.1 = 717.77

So as a fact, I will go over next year, so your answer is 6 whole years.

Hope this helped! Hope I'm not wrong!

Which polygon has an interior angle sum of 900°
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of interior angle = (n-2)180

900 = (n - 2)180

Opening bracket

900 = 180n - 360

180n = 900 + 360

180n = 1260

n = 1260/180

n = 7

The area between z = 1.74 and z = 1.25<br> Round your answer to three decimal places.
balu736 [363]

Answer:

The area between z = 1.74 and z = 1.25 is of 0.065.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

The area between two values of Z is given by the subtraction of the pvalue of the larger value by the smaller.

The area between z = 1.74 and z = 1.25.

This is the pvalue of z = 1.74 subtracted by the pvalue of z = 1.25.

z = 1.74 has a pvalue of 0.959

z = 1.25 has a pvalue of 0.894

0.959 - 0.894 = 0.065

The area between z = 1.74 and z = 1.25 is of 0.065.

Answer:

each side of the hexagon measures 40 cm (which agrees with answer B)

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that a regular hexagon has six equal sides, therefore, each side would be one sixth of the 240 cm:

each side of the hexagon = 240 cm / 6 = 40 cm
