2) Marion deposited $12,000 into her saving account for 10 years with simple annual interest rate of 5%. Cameron deposited $12,0

morpeh [17]

Answer:

Marion’s account will have $237 more at the end of 10 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we calculate the amount that will be in Marion’s account after 10 years.

To calculate this, we use the formula for simple interest

I = PRT/100

where I is the interest accrued for the period of years

P is the amount deposited = $12,000

R is the rate = 5%

T is the time which is 10 years

Plugging these values into the equation

I = (12,000 * 5 * 10)/100 = $6,000

The amount after 10 years is thus the sum of the amount deposited and the interest accured = $12,000 + $6,000 = $18,000

Now for Cameron, we use the compound interest formula

A = P(1+r/n)^nt

Where A is the amount in the account after the number of years

P is the amount deposited = $12,000

r is the interest rate = 4% = 4/100 = 0.04

n is the number of times per year the interest is compounded. Since it is annually, n = 1

t is the time which is 10 years

We plug these values and we have;

A = 12,000(1 + 0.04/1)^(1 * 10)

A = 12,000 (1.04)^10

A = $17,763 ( to the nearest whole dollars)

Since 18,000 is greater than 17,763, the amount in Marion’s account will be greater at an amount of (18,000 - 17,763) = $237

Given a term and the common difference, find the explicit formula.<br> 8. a(19) = 135<br> d = 15

Rasek [7]

The explicit formula is a(n) = 15(n – 10)

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, a term a(19) = 135 and common difference d = 15

We have to find the explicit formula.

Now, we know that, a(n) = a + (n – 1)d where a(n) is nth term, a is first term, d is common difference,

So, for a(19)

$\begin{array}{l}{\rightarrow a(19)=a+(19-1) 15} \\\\ {\rightarrow 135=a+18 \times 15} \\\\ {\rightarrow a=135-270} \\\\ {\rightarrow a=-135}\end{array}$

Now, we know that, an explicit formula is an expression for finding the nth term,

So, in our problem, expression for finding nth term is a + (n – 1)d

$\begin{array}{l}{\rightarrow-135+(n-1) 15} \\\\ {\rightarrow-135+15 n-15} \\\\ {\rightarrow 15 n-150} \\\\ {\rightarrow 15(n-10)}\end{array}$

Hence, the explicit formula is a(n) = 15(n – 10).
