Answer:

G) $48,357.57

Step-by-step explanation:

The future value formula can be used to find the account value:

FV = P(1 +r)^t

where P is invested at annual rate r for t years.

FV = $50,000(1.07^10) ≈ $98,357.57

The amount of interest earned is the difference between this value and the value of the initial investment:

interest = $98,357.57 -50,000 = $48,357.57

Hank earned $48,357.57 in interest after 10 years.

_____

At 7% interest, the "rule of 72" tells you the doubling time of the account is about 72/7 = 10.3 years. That is the account value will be not quite double the original investment after 10 years. So, the amount of interest earned is only slightly less than $50,000. If the account earned simple interest, the interest earned would be $35,000. Only one answer choice is more than $35,000 and less than $50,000.

Iodine-125 has a half-life of about 60 days. How many milligrams of a 1000 mg sample will remain after 240 days?

Tomtit [17]

240 days is 4 times the half-life, which means that a sample of 1000 mg will decay to

$\dfrac{1000}{2^4}=\dfrac{125}2=62.5\,\mathrm{mg}$

after 240 days.

Find the approximate perimeter of ABC plotted below.

maksim [4K]

Answer:

B. 21.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of ∆ABC = AB + BC + AC

A(-4, 1)

B(-2, 3)

C(3, -4)

✔️Distance between A(-4, 1) and B(-2, 3):

$AB = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}$

$AB = \sqrt{(-2 - (-4))^2 + (3 - 1)^2} = \sqrt{(2)^2 + (2)^2)}$

$AB = \sqrt{4 + 4}$

$AB = \sqrt{16}$

AB = 4 units

✔️Distance between B(-2, 3) and C(3, -4):

$BC = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}$

$BC = \sqrt{(3 - (-2))^2 + (-4 - 3)^2} = \sqrt{(5)^2 + (-7)^2)}$

$BC = \sqrt{25 + 49}$

$BC = \sqrt{74}$

BC = 8.6 units (nearest tenth)

✔️Distance between A(-4, 1) and C(3, -4):

$AC = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}$

$AC = \sqrt{(3 - (-4))^2 + (-4 - 1)^2} = \sqrt{(7)^2 + (-5)^2)}$

$AC = \sqrt{47 + 25}$

$AC = \sqrt{74}$

AC = 8.6 units (nearest tenth)

Perimeter of ∆ABC = 4 + 8.6 + 8.6 = 21.2 units
