How much should you put in an investment paying a simple interest rate of 5% if you needed $4000 in eighteen mont

Eddi Din [679]

now, there are 12 months in a year, so 18 months is really 18/12 of a year, thus

$~~~~~~ \textit{Simple Interest Earned Amount} \\\\ A=P(1+rt)\qquad \begin{cases} A=\textit{accumulated amount}\dotfill & \$4000\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\\ r=rate\to 5\%\to \frac{5}{100}\dotfill &0.05\\ t=years\to \frac{18}{12}\dotfill &\frac{3}{2} \end{cases} \\\\\\ 4000=P[1+(0.05)(\frac{3}{2})]\implies 4000=P(1.075) \\\\\\ \cfrac{4000}{1.075}=P\implies 3720.93\approx P$

Which of the following correctly shows the quadratic formula for the given equation? 3x2 - 6x + 8 = 0

frez [133]

The quadratic formula is expressed as:

x = (-b +/- √(b^2 - 4ac) ) / 2a

where a, b and c are the coefficients of the quadratic equation with the form ax^2 + bx + c=0

Therefore, the quadratic equation would be:

a = 3
b = -6
c = 8

x = (-(-6) +/- √((-6)^2 - 4(3)(8) ) / 2(3)

Hope this helps.

Ashley is choosing a popsicle from the freezer at random the probability of her picking a grape popsicle is 3/8 the probability

netineya [11]

If an experiment has $N$ possible outputs, each with probability

$P_1,\ P_2,\ldots,\ P_N$

then the sum of all probabilities is always one:

$P_1 + P_2 + \ldots + P_N=1$

So, in your case, you have

$P(\text{grape}) + P(\text{cherry}) + P(\text{orange}) = 1$

plugging in the given values:

$\dfrac{3}{8} + \dfrac{1}{3} + P(\text{orange}) = 1 \iff \dfrac{17}{24} + P(\text{orange}) = 1$

we can deduce that

$P(\text{orange}) = 1-\dfrac{17}{24} = \dfrac{7}{24}$
