Is the same as the one you just did.

keep in mind that, going against the current, the current's speed erodes speed from your regular speed, whilst if you're going with the current, the current's speed adds to it.

now, in this case, you row 5mph, going upstream you're only doing 3mph, whatever happened to the other 2mph?  well, the current speed eroded them, meaning the speed of the river is 2mph.

now, going downstream with the current, your regular speed is 5mph, and the current is 2mph, since the current adds to yours, then you're going 5 + 2, mph.

Answer:

percentage of interest = 22.6% (to one decimal place)

Step-by-step explanation:

actual price paid (including interest) = 429,   out of which

interest = 429-350 = 79

Percentage of interest out of actual price paid

Mike and John are the partners in a local bar who invest in a ratio of 7:13, respectively. They started the business with $1.5M.
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

A) $525,000

B) $975,000

C) 35%

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve A) and B), divide the total amount of money by the sum of the parts of the ratio (7 + 13 = 20, in this case), and then multiply this by the person's portion of the ratio. This is because you are finding the worth of '1 part', and are then multiplying it to find how much money all their parts are worth together.

To solve C), take a person's portion of the ratio, divide it by the sum of the portions of the ratio and then multiply by 100% to get a percentage. In this case, 7/(7 + 13) * 100% = 7/20 * 100% = 0.35 * 100% = 35%.

you have $15,000 to invest for 5 years at 5.5% annual interest rate that is compounded continuously. how much money will you hav
MissTica

Answer:

$19,747.96

Step-by-step explanation:

You are going to want to use the continuous compound interest formula, which is shown below:

A = Pe^{rt}

<em>A = total</em>

<em>P = principal amount</em>

<em>r = interest rate (decimal)</em>

<em>t = time (years)</em>

<em />

First, lets change 5.5% into a decimal:

5.5% -> \frac{5.5}{100} -> 0.055

Next, plug in the values into the equation:

A=15,000e^{0.055(5)}

A=19,747.96

After 5 years, you will have $19,747.96
