Coupon
20% of 1,015 is $203.
1,015-203=812
Tax
5% of 812 is $40.60
812+40.6=852.6
After the coupon and tax she has to pay $852.6

5. Explain how you could use compatible numbers to estimate 245 ÷ 3. Then estimate the quotient.

sdas [7]

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

Compatible numbers are defined as the numbers which are very close to the numbers that they are replacing that divides evenly into each other.

In the context, we have to estimate the quotient using the compatible numbers in order to estimate 245 divided by 3.

So, estimating 245 as 240 and 3 as 30.

Here, 240 is very close to 245 and 30 is close to 3. So the quotient is the result when we divide 240 by 30 and it divides evenly into 240.

We first divide the non zero parts of each number i.e. 24 by 3 to get the first part of the estimate.

Then we add on the zero if there were left in the problem to get your estimate.

Therefore,

240 / 30 = 8

So here, the quotient is estimated as 8.

Answer:

Albert = $2159.07; Marie = $2244.99; Hans = $2188.35; Max = $2147.40

Marie is $10 000 richer

Step-by-step explanation:

Albert

(a) $1000 at 1.2 % compounded monthly

$A = P\left(1 + \dfrac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}$

A = 1000(1 + 0.001)¹²⁰ = $1127.43

(b) $500 losing 2%

0.98 × 500 = $490

(c) $500 compounded continuously at 0.8%

$\begin{array}{rcl}A & = & Pe^{rt}\\& = & 500e^{0.008 \times 10}\\& = &\mathbf{\$541.64}\\\end{array}\\$

(d) Balance

Total = 1127.43 + 490.00+ 541.64 = $2159.07

Marie

(a) 1500 at 1.4 % compounded quarterly

A = 1500(1 + 0.0035)⁴⁰ = $1724.99

(b) $500 gaining 4 %

1.04 × 500 = $520.00

(c) Balance

Total = 1724.99 + 520.00 = $2244.99

Hans

$2000 compounded continuously at 0.9 %

$\begin{array}{rcl}A& = &2000e^{0.009 \times 10}\\& = &\mathbf{\$2188.35}\\\end{array}\\$

Max

(a) $1000 decreasing exponentially at 0.5 % annually

A = 1000(1 - 0.005)¹⁰= $951.11

(b) $1000 at 1.8 % compounded biannually

A = 1000(1 + 0.009)²⁰ = $1196.29

(c) Balance

Total = 951.11 + 1196.29 = $2147.40

Marie is $ 10 000 richer at the end of the competition.

Partition a number line from 0 to 1 into sixth decompose 2/6 into 4 equal lengths.

Anon25 [30]

When we partition a number line from 0 to 1 into six, each segment has a length of 1/6 and the segments are:
1/6. 2/6. 3/6, 4/6, 5/6 , 6/6

Breaking 2/6 into 4 equal parts, we get each part equal to 1/12
