tangare [24]

We have been given that a person places $6340 in an investment account earning an annual rate of 8.4%, compounded continuously. We are asked to find amount of money in the account after 2 years.

We will use continuous compounding formula to solve our given problem as:

, where

A = Final amount after t years,

P = Principal initially invested,

e = base of a natural logarithm,

r = Rate of interest in decimal form.

Upon substituting our given values in above formula, we will get:

Upon rounding to nearest cent, we will get:

Therefore, an amount of $7499.82 will be in account after 2 years.

John had 84 dollars, and his brother Fred owed 12 dollars to his friend. John gave his brother some money. Fred paid his debt an

Alja [10]

Answer:

John have $36 and he should give $48 to his brother for both to have equal money.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

amount of money John have = $84

amount of money John's brother owed to her friend = $12

$12 of the $84 is going to his brother's friend, that leaves $72 for John and his brother.

If they are to finish with the same amount, then each should have half of the John's money after he paid $12

So,

72/2

= 36 each

but since John's brother have to give 12 rupees in debt so

36+12

= $48

So John should have $36 and he should give $48 to his brother.

A long-distance telephone company charges a rate of cents per minute or a -cent minimum charge per completed call, whichever

LiRa [457]

Answer: 50 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

Company charges 8 cents per call and the call in question is 3 minutes. Cost is;

= 3 * 8

= 24 cents

Company however stipulates that a call is 8 cents per minute or a 50-cent minimum charge per completed call, whichever is greater.

<em>50 cents is greater than the per minute total charge of 24 cents so the cost will be 50 cents.</em>

The graph of the function C(x) = −0.34x2 + 12x + 62 is shown. The function models the production cost, C, in thousands of dollar

Virty [35]

Answer:

0 ≤ x < 1.12 and 34.18 < x ≤ 39.87

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> is the number of tires produced, in thousands

C(x) ---> the production cost, in thousands of dollars

we have

$C(x)=-0.34x^{2} +12x+62$

This is a vertical parabola open downward (the leading coefficient is negative)

The vertex represent a maximum

The graph in the attached figure

we know that

Looking at the graph

For the interval [0,1.12) -----> $0\leq x$

The value of C(x) ----> $C(x) < 75$

That means ----> The production cost is under $75,000

For the interval (34.18,39.87] -----> $34.18 < x\leq 39.87$

The value of C(x) ----> $C(x) < 75$

That means ----> The production cost is under $75,000

Remember that the variable x (number of tires) cannot be a negative number

therefore

If the company wants to keep its production costs under $75,000 a reasonable domain for the constraint x is

0 ≤ x < 1.12 and 34.18 < x ≤ 39.87
