The answer is 8%

Compound interest formula is:
A = P(1 + r/n)ⁿˣ
A - the final amount
P - the initial amount
r - interest rate
n - number of compoundings per year
x - time period

We have:
A = <span>$1389.08
P = </span><span>$1000
r = ?
n = 2  (it is semiannual)
x = 4

</span>A = P(1 + r/n)ⁿˣ
1389.08 = 1000(1 + r/2)²*⁴
1389.08 = 1000(1 + r/2)⁸
(1 + r/2)⁸ = 1389.08/1000
(1 + r/2)⁸ = 1.389
\sqrt[8]{(1 +  \frac{r}{2} ) ^{8}}   =  \sqrt[8]{1.389}  \\ &#10;1 +  \frac{r}{2} =1.04 \\ &#10; \frac{r}{2} = 1.04-1 \\ &#10; \frac{r}{2} = 0.04 \\ &#10;r = 2*0.04 =0.08
r = 0.08 = 8/100 = 8%

Find m angle d for m angle b = 65<br> The figure is not drawn to scale
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Denote O as center of circle, draw OA, OC.

As property of tangent line from outside of circle (angle OAD = angle OCD = 90 deg):

=> AOC + D = 180

Moreover, angle  AOC = 2 x angle B = 2 x 65 = 130

=> D = 180 - 130 = 50 deg

Hope this helps!

Suppose x has a normal distribution with mean μ = 45 and standard deviation σ = 9. describe the distribution of x values for sam
Fofino [41]
The standard deviation of a particular sample is equal to the standard deviation divided by the square root of the sample size.  That is,\sigma_x=\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt n}
The mean of a particular sample is equal to the mean of the set the sample was taken from.  That is,
\mu_x=\mu
\text{In your case, }\sigma_x=\frac{9}{\sqrt4}=\frac92\text{ and }\mu_x=45.

The table shows the number of championships won by the baseball and softball leagues of three youth baseball divisions organized
castortr0y [4]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

heyq


The correct answer is:


7/10


Explanation:


Finding the totals of each column and row, we find:


There are 3+2+1 = 6 children in the baseball league.

There are 7+2+1 = 10 children in the softball league.

There are 3+7 = 10 children in the 7-9 division.

There are 2+2 = 4 children in the 10-12 division.

There are 1+1 = 2 children in the 13-15 division.

There are a total of 10+6 = 16 children.


We start with the information that the team is a member of the softball league.  There are 10 children in this league; this is the denominator of the probability.


There are 7 children in the 7-9 division that are in the softball league.  This gives us the probability 7/10.

please you are a student study well especially graph is easy thing to do.
