B. Because the divisor, 4.2, has only value in the ones and tenths places, so we only have to multiply by 10 to get to 42, which is the whole number you need.
Current amount in account
P=36948.61
Future value of this amount after n years at i=11% annual interest
F1=P(1+i)^n
=36948.61(1.11)^n
Future value of $3000 annual deposits after n years at i=11%
F2=A((1+i)^n-1)/i
=3000(1.11^n-1)/0.11
We'd like to have F1+F2=280000, so forming following equation:
F1+F2=280000
=>
36948.61(1.11)^n+3000(1.11^n-1)/0.11=280000
We can solve this by trial and error.
The rule of 72 tells us that money at 11% deposited will double in 72/11=6.5 years, approximately.
The initial amount of 36948.61 will become 4 times as much in 13 years, equal to approximately 147800 by then.
Meanwhile the 3000 a year for 13 years has a total of 39000. It will only grow about half as fast, namely doubling in about 13 years, or worth 78000.
Future value at 13 years = 147800+78000=225800.
That will take approximately 2 more years, or 225800*1.11^2=278000.
So our first guess is 15 years, and calculate the target amount
=36948.61(1.11)^15+3000(1.11^15-1)/0.11
=280000.01, right on.
So it takes 15.00 years to reach the goal of 280000 years.
If the two integers are both the same sign (both positive or both negative), then the quotient will be positive.
Answer: V = (1/2 inches)^3 = 1^3/2^3 inches^3 = 1/8 Cubic inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula of Volume for a cube is just like Hyperrectangle's V = width x length x height and since a Cube is just a Hyperrectangle with all sides equal, this specific case can be written as V = side^3
