Answer:

\frac{11}{42} or 26.19%

Step-by-step explanation:

If the range of possible numbers is between 12 and 54 then that means that there are 42 (54 - 12) possible numbers that can be made. In this range, there are 11 prime numbers which are the following...

13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47, 53

Therefore, the probability that the number formed is a prime would be \frac{11}{42} which if we divide and multiply the decimal by 100 we get the probability in percentage form.

\frac{11}{42} = 0.2619

0.2619 * 100 = 26.19%

Finally, we can see that the probability of this happening is 26.19%

If you invested $500 at 5% simple interest for 2 years, how much interest do you earn? Show work and answer in
givi [52]

Answer:

$50

$30.88

I will invest in simple interest as the interest there is more.

Step-by-step explanation:

If I invested $500 at 5% simple interest for 2 years, then the interest that I will get will be given by the formula

I = P \times \frac{rt}{100}, where P is the invested principal, r is the APR and t is the time in years.

So, in our case, I = 500 \times \frac{5 \times 2}{100} = 50 dollars. (Answer)

Now, if I invest $500 at 3% compound interest compounded monthly for 2 years.

Now, using the formula of compound interest we have

I = P(1 + \frac{r}{n \times 100} )^{tn} - P, where r is the APR and n is the number of times in a year the principal is compounded.

In our case, I = 500(1 + \frac{3}{12 \times 100} )^{2 \times 12} - 500 = 30.88 dollars. (Answer)

Therefore, I will invest in simple interest as the interest there is more. (Answer)

raketka [301]
   
\displaystyle\\
k =  \frac{P_1}{P_2} =  \sqrt{ \frac{A_1}{A_2} }=\sqrt{\frac{18}{32}}=\sqrt{\frac{9\times2}{16\times2}}=\sqrt{\frac{9}{16}}=\frac{\sqrt{9}}{\sqrt{16}}= \boxed{\bf \frac{3}{4}}
