We solve the question as follows:
Simple interest=Principle×Rate×Time
Thus given:
p=$55000, R=2.5%, time= 1 year
thus
Interest=55000×0.025×1=$1375
To evaluate the amount required to keep up with the inflation, your interest rate should match the inflation rate otherwise prices are going up faster than the savings.
Required interest rate=55000×0.034×1=$1870
The buying power lost will be the difference between your required interest and actual interest.
Thus:
Buying power lost=1870-1375=$495
Answer:
13
Step-by-step explanation:
count A up to C
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Square
The side length of the square = 8 cm
The area of the square = s^2
The area of the square = 8^2 = 64
Circle
r = d/2
r = 8/2
r = 4
Area of the circle = pi r^2
Area of the circle = 3.14 * 16
Area of the circle = 50.24
Shaded Area
Area of the Shaded area = area Square - Area Circle
= 64 - 40.24
= 23.76
Y=3x-2 is the equation :^}
Answer:
The original length was 41 inches and the original width was 16 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> the original length of the piece of metal
y ----> the original width of the piece of metal
we know that
When squares with sides 5 in long are cut from the four corners and the flaps are folded upward to form an open box
The dimensions of the box are

The volume of the box is equal to


so

simplify
-----> equation A
Remember that
The piece of metal is 25 in longer than it is wide
so
----> equation B
substitute equation B in equation A

solve for y

Solve the quadratic equation by graphing
using a graphing tool
The solution is y=16
see the attached figure
Find the value of x

therefore
The original length was 41 inches and the original width was 16 inches
