Your parents will retire in 19 years. They currently have $350,000 saved, and they think they will need $800,000 at retirement.

Answer:

<em>The annual interest is 6.77%</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Simple Interest</u>

Definition: Interest calculated on the original principal only of a loan or on the balance of an account.

Unlike compound interest where the interest earned in the compounding periods is added to form the new principal, simple interest only considers the principal to calculate the interest in every period.

The interest earned is calculated as follows:

I=Prt

Where:

I = Interest

P = initial principal balance

r = interest rate

t = time

Your parents will retire in t = 19 years. They have P=$350,000 in their savings account and they need to have $800,000 when they retire.

The interest earned is the difference between the final balance and the principal:

I = $800,000 - $350,000 = $450.000

Solving the first equation for r:

\displaystyle r=\frac{I}{P.t}

Substituting:

\displaystyle r=\frac{450,000}{350,000\cdot 19}

Calculating:

r = 0.0677

Or, equivalently:

r = 6.77%

The annual interest is 6.77%

Find the area if the composite shape
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

111 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle is a quadrilateral (has four sides and four angle) with two pairs of parallel sides. Opposite sides of a rectangle are equal to each other. Also all the angles of a rectangle are 90° each.

The area of a rectangle = length * width

For rectangle 1, length = 12 m, width = 3 m

Therefore area of rectangle 1 = length * width = 12 m * 3 m = 36 m²

For rectangle 2, length =(12 m - 3 m - 3 m) = 6 m, width =(15 m - 10 m) =5 m

Therefore area of rectangle 2 = length * width = 6 m * 5 m = 30 m²

For rectangle 3, length = 15 m, width = 3 m

Therefore area of rectangle 3 = length * width = 15 m * 3 m = 45 m²

Area of composite shape = Area of rectangle 1 + Area of rectangle 2 + Area of rectangle 3

Area of composite shape = 36 m² + 30 m² + 45 m² = 111 m²

A hair dryer has a resistance of 11. 5. What current does it conduct when it is plugged into a wall outlet that provides 120 V?
Nata [24]

The current it conduct when it is plugged into a wall outlet that provides 120 V is 10.4A

<h3>Ohms law</h3>

The current passing through a conductor is proportional to the potential difference. Mathematically;

V = IR
where
V is the voltage = 120V

R is the resistance = 11.5 ohms

Required

Current I

Substitute

I = V/R
I = 120/11.5
I = 10.4A

Hence  the current it conduct when it is plugged into a wall outlet that provides 120 V is 10.4A
