You deposit 2000 in account A, which pays 2.25% annual interest compounded monthly. You deposit another 2000 in account b, which

To model this situation, we are going to use the compound interest formula: A=P(1+ \frac{r}{n} )^{nt}
where
A is the final amount after t years 
P is the initial deposit 
r is the interest rate in decimal form 
n is the number of times the interest is compounded per year
t is the time in years 

For account A: 
We know for our problem that P=2000 and r= \frac{2.25}{100} =0.0225. Since the interest is compounded monthly, it is compounded 12 times per year; therefore, n=12. Lets replace those values in our formula:
A=2000(1+ \frac{0.0225}{12} )^{12t}

For account B:
P=2000, r= \frac{3}{100} =0.03, n=12. Lest replace those values in our formula:
A=2000(1+ \frac{0.03}{12} )^{12t}

Since we want to find the time, t, <span>when  the sum of the balance in both accounts is at least 5000, we need to add both accounts and set that sum equal to 5000:
</span>2000(1+ \frac{0.0225}{12} )^{12t}+2000(1+ \frac{0.03}{12} )^{12t}=5000

Now that we have our equation, we just need to solve for t:
2000[(1+ \frac{0.0225}{12} )^{12t}+(1+ \frac{0.03}{12} )^{12t}]=5000
(1+ \frac{0.0225}{12} )^{12t}+(1+ \frac{0.03}{12} )^{12t}= \frac{5000} {2000}
(1.001875)^{12t}+(1.0025 )^{12t}= \frac{5}&#10;{2}
ln(1.001875)^{12t}+ln(1.0025 )^{12t}=ln( \frac{5} {2})
12tln(1.001875)+12tln(1.0025 )=ln( \frac{5} {2})
t[12ln(1.001875)+12ln(1.0025 )]=ln( \frac{5} {2})
t= \frac{ln( \frac{5}{2} )}{12ln(1.001875)+12ln(1.0025 )}
17.47

We can conclude that after 17.47 years <span>the sum of the balance in both accounts will be at least 5000.</span>

A quilt is designed using a square pattern. each square contains two rectangles. each rectangle contains a shaded rhombus. each
Xelga [282]

Based on the calculations, the value of x in this rhombus is equal to: B. 55.

<h3>How to determine the value of x?</h3>

Since the opposite angles in a rhombus are always congruent, the sum of each angle in any rhombus must be equal to 360 degrees.

From the image of the rhombus, we can deduce the following parameters:

Adjacent angles = 2x + 20 and 50 degrees.

Opposite angles = 2x + 20 and 50 degrees.

Adding the angles, we have:

2x + 20 + 2x + 20 + 50 + 50 = 360

4x + 140 = 360

4x = 360 - 140

4x = 220

x = 220/4

x = 55°

When is the product of two nonzero integers less than or equal to both of the two factors?
Leona [35]

It would mean a nonzero integer. Due to the fact that a non-zero x a non-zero integer equals a nonzero integer. But here is the question, if the nonzero integer equals the amount of dog food my dog consumes how am I supposed to paint the walls red if the cat won't jump off the nonzero integer. The fish won't slide therefore the bird can't swim.
