We are given the following information
Investment = $5200
Annual interest rate = 4.2% = 0.042
Final amount = $16,500
Number of years = 27.7 years
Number of compoudings = quartely = 4
The student uses the following model
The general formula for compound interest is given by
As you can see, the number of compoundings is incorrect (3 vs 4)
The interest rate is also incorrect.
Let us substitute the given values into the above formula
Therefore, the final amount is approximately $16,543.5
Answer:
The domain is {x : x ∈ R} or (-∞ , ∞)
Step-by-step explanation:
* Lets explain how to find the domain
- The domain of the function is the values of x which make the
function defined
- The quantity under the square root must be ≥ 0 because there is
no square root for negative value
* Lets solve the problem
∵ f(x) = √(x² - x + 6)
∴ The value of (x² - x + 6) must be greater than or equal zero because
there is no square root for negative value
- Graph the function to know which values of x make the quantity
under the root is negative that means the values of x which make
the graph under the x-axis
∵ The graph doesn't intersect the x-axis at any point
∵ All the graph is above the x-axis
∴ There is no value of x make f(x) < 0
∴ x can be any real number
∴ The domain of f(x) is all real numbers
∴ The domain is {x : x ∈ R} or (-∞ , ∞)
