Answer:
6.66%
Step-by-step explanation:
((1 + r/m)^n) - 1
Interest rate , r = 6.5%
m = number of compounding times per period = 4 (quarterly interest)
((1 + 0.065/4)^4) - 1
((1 + 0.01625) ^4) - 1
((1.01625)^4) - 1
1.06660 - 1
= 0.0666
0.0666 * 100%
= 6.66%
All we need to do is plug the numbers into the equation.
A:
Not A.
B:
Not B.
C:
C is the correct answer
Step-by-step explanation:
if there is nothing missing, we have
x + 25/-8 = -6
in order to compare or add or subtract fractions, we need to bring them all to the same denominator (bottom part).
remember, integer numbers are fractions too. like here
-6 = -6/1
25/-8 = -25/8
so, how can we bring -6/1 to .../8 ?
by multiplying 1 by 8.
but we cannot multiply only the denominator by 8. otherwise we would suddenly have
-6/8
and is -6/8 = -6/1 ? no, certainly not.
to keep the original value of the fraction we have to do the same multiplication also with the numerator (top part).
so, we actually do
-6/1 × 8/8 = -48/8
with this little trick we have now .../8 to operate with, and our transformed fraction has still the same value
-6/1 = -48/8 indeed.
so, we have
x + -25/8 = -48/8
x - 25/8 = -48/8
x = -48/8 + 25/8 = -23/8
Answer: a<b
Step-by-step explanation:
Given statement: "a number <em>a</em> is always less than another number <em>b."</em>
<em />
We use "<" or ">" sign to show less than or more than comparison in a mathematical statement.
If <em>a</em> is less than <em>b </em>then it can represented as
<em>a < b</em>
The expressions expresses the relationship between <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> would be:
<em>a < b</em>
