\bf ~~~~~~ \textit{Compound Interest Earned Amount}
\\\\
A=P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}
\quad 
\begin{cases}
A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\
P=\textit{original amount deposited}\to &\$500\\
r=rate\to 6\%\to \frac{6}{100}\to &0.06\\
n=
\begin{array}{llll}
\textit{times it compounds per year}\\
\textit{semi-annually, thus twice}
\end{array}\to &2\\
t=years\to &2
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
A=500\left(1+\frac{0.06}{2}\right)^{2\cdot 2}\implies A=500(1.03)^4\implies A=562.754405

now, "A" is the accumulated amount, including the earned interest, how much interest was it earned?  well, is just A - P.

1/6+1/2 simplest form
vlada-n [284]
Lowest common denominator-> 6
1/2 multiply both top and bottom by 3 to get it in sixths
1/6+3/6=4/6
4/6 simplifies to 2/3.
2/3 is the simplest form to your question.

Write an equation for a circle with a diameter that has endpoints at (–4, –7) and (–2, –5). Round to the nearest tenth if necess
Zinaida [17]

since we know the endpoints of the circle, we know then that distance from one to another is really the diameter, and half of that is its radius.

we can also find the midpoint of those two endpoints and we'll be landing right on the center of the circle.

\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points} \\\\ (\stackrel{x_1}{-4}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-7})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{-2}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-5})\qquad \qquad d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2} \\\\\\ \stackrel{diameter}{d}=\sqrt{[-2-(-4)]^2+[-5-(-7)]^2}\implies d=\sqrt{(-2+4)^2+(-5+7)^2} \\\\\\ d=\sqrt{2^2+2^2}\implies d=\sqrt{2\cdot 2^2}\implies d=2\sqrt{2}~\hfill \stackrel{~\hfill radius}{\cfrac{2\sqrt{2}}{2}\implies\boxed{ \sqrt{2}}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill

\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{middle point of 2 points } \\\\ (\stackrel{x_1}{-4}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-7})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{-2}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-5})\qquad \qquad \qquad \left(\cfrac{ x_2 + x_1}{2}~~~ ,~~~ \cfrac{ y_2 + y_1}{2} \right) \\\\\\ \left( \cfrac{-2-4}{2}~~,~~\cfrac{-5-7}{2} \right)\implies \left( \cfrac{-6}{2}~,~\cfrac{-12}{2} \right)\implies \stackrel{center}{\boxed{(-3,-6)}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill

\bf \textit{equation of a circle}\\\\ (x- h)^2+(y- k)^2= r^2 \qquad center~~(\stackrel{-3}{ h},\stackrel{-6}{ k})\qquad \qquad radius=\stackrel{\sqrt{2}}{ r} \\[2em] [x-(-3)]^2+[y-(-6)]^2=(\sqrt{2})^2\implies (x+3)^2+(y+6)^2=2

Wen is factoring the polynomial, which has four terms.
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

2x(x + 3)(2x - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4x³ + 10x² - 6x ← factor out 2x from each term

= 2x(2x² + 5x - 3) ← factor the quadratic

Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term

product = 2 × - 3 = - 6 and sum = + 5

The factors are + 6 and - 1

Use these factors to split the x- term

2x² + 6x - x - 3 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

= 2x(x + 3) - 1(x + 3) ← factor out (x + 3) from each term

= (x + 3)(2x - 1)

Thus

4x³ + 10x² - 6x = 2x(x + 3)(2x - 1) ← in factored form

Sam rolled a die 75 times. On 39 of those rolls, he had a 6. Which statement is TRUE when the probabilities are compared?
svetlana [45]

Answer:

D)The experimental probability is greater than the theoretical probability

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

75 times a die is rolled out of 39 times it got 6

To Find :

Which statement is true?

Solution:

The theoretical probability is given by the ,

Pt=No.of favorable outcomes/Total outcomes

Here favorable is getting 6 on the die

so how many times we can get 6 =1 time

Total outcomes =6

Pt=1/6

Pt=0.1667

Now for

The experimental Probability ,

Pe=Number times that event occur /Total no of trails

Here 39 times we get 6 and total no trails are 75

Pe=39/75

Pe=0.52

Hence we can say that Pe>Pt.
