Answer:

840 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The wooden steps have two parts.

Both of which are rectangular prisms.

The top part is 6 inches tall, 5 inches wide and 10 inches long.

The bottom part is 6 inches tall, 9 inches wide and 10 inches long.

Question asked:

What is the volume of the steps?

Solution:

<u>For top part</u>

Length = 10 inches

Width = 5 inches

Height = 6 inches

<u><em>As we know:</em></u>

<u><em /></u> $Volume\ of\ rectangular\ prism =length\times width\times height$

$=10\times5\times6=300\ cubic\ inches$

<u>For bottom part</u>

Length = 10 inches

Width = 9 inches

Height = 6 inches

Similarly

$Volume\ of\ rectangular\ prism =length\times width\times height$

$=10\times9\times6=540\ cubic\ inches$

Volume of two steps = 300 + 540 = 840 cubic inches

<em>Therefore, the volume of the steps are 840 cubic inches.</em>

If Tanisha has $1000 to invest at 7% per annum compounded semiannually, how long will it be before she has $1600? If the co

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

Using continuous interest 6.83 years before she has $1600.

Using continuous compounding, 6.71 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Compound interest:

The compound interest formula is given by:

$A(t) = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}$

Where A(t) is the amount of money after t years, P is the principal(the initial sum of money), r is the interest rate(as a decimal value), n is the number of times that interest is compounded per unit year and t is the time in years for which the money is invested or borrowed.

Continuous compounding:

The amount of money earned after t years in continuous interest is given by:

$P(t) = P(0)e^{rt}$

In which P(0) is the initial investment and r is the interest rate, as a decimal.

If Tanisha has $1000 to invest at 7% per annum compounded semiannually, how long will it be before she has $1600?

We have to find t for which $A(t) = 1600$ when $P = 1000, r = 0.07, n = 2$

$A(t) = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}$

$1600 = 1000(1 + \frac{0.07}{2})^{2t}$

$(1.035)^{2t} = \frac{1600}{1000}$

$(1.035)^{2t} = 1.6$

$\log{1.035)^{2t}} = \log{1.6}$

$2t\log{1.035} = \log{1.6}$

$t = \frac{\log{1.6}}{2\log{1.035}}$

$t = 6.83$

Using continuous interest 6.83 years before she has $1600

If the compounding is continuous, how long will it be?

We have that $P(0) = 1000, r = 0.07$

Then

$P(t) = P(0)e^{rt}$

$1600 = 1000e^{0.07t}$

$e^{0.07t} = 1.6$

$\ln{e^{0.07t}} = \ln{1.6}$

$0.07t = \ln{1.6}$

$t = \frac{\ln{1.6}}{0.07}$

$t = 6.71$

Using continuous compounding, 6.71 years.
