Answer:

100.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the interest is compounded quarterly, and there are 4 quarters per year, that would leave us with 32 quarters total where interest is acquired. Now, we need to find the interest rate, that would be required in order to end up with 420 dollars after 32 quarters.

We can setup a formula using our period of time and the money he invested into the bank:

340(x)^{32}=420

We can divide 340 from both sides, and simplify the right side to 21 divided by 17:

x^{32}=\frac{21}{17}

Taking the 32th root of 21/17 is equal to 1.00662, which is equal to 100.0662%. To the nearest tenth of a percent, this is equal to 100.7%.

kondaur [170]
<h3>Answer:  false</h3>

Work Shown:

s = false

p = true

r = false

-p = false, which is the opposite of statement p

s or -p = false or false = false

The result of an 'or' operation is false only when both parts are false; otherwise, it is true

(s or -p) or r = false or false = false

(s or -p) or r = false

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

x=45\degree

Step-by-step explanation:

In the diagram, the measure of the (x+30\degree) angle is equal to the 75\degree angle.

These two angles are alternate angles.

We therefore set up the following equation and solve for x.

x+30\degree =75\degree

\Rightarrow x =75\degree-30\degree

\Rightarrow x =45\degree
