Using the formula for the nth term of an arithmetic progression.
an = a + (n - 1)d
a(4) = a + 3d = 55
a(9) = a + 8d = 90
a(9) - a(4) => 5d = 35
d = 35/5 = 7.
From a(4): a = 55 - 3d = 55 - 3(7) = 55 - 21 = 34
a(2) = a + d = 34 + 7 = 41.
Answer:
$0.025x² . . . where x is a number of percentage points
Step-by-step explanation:
The multiplier for semi-annual compounding will be ...
(1 + x/2)² = 1 + x + x²/4
The multiplier for annual compounding will be ...
1 + x
The multiplier for semiannual compounding is greater by ...
(1 + x + x²/4) - (1 + x) = x²/4
Maria's interest will be greater by $1000×(x²/4) = $250x², where x is a decimal fraction.
If x is a percent value, as in x = 6 when x percent = 6%, then the difference amount is ...
$250·(x/100)² = $0.025x² . . . where x is a number of percentage points
_____
<u>Example</u>:
For x percent = 6%, the difference in interest earned on $1000 for one year is $0.025×6² = $0.90.
Answer:
A) g is increasing, and the graph of g is concave up.
Step-by-step explanation:
g'(x) = ∫₀ˣ e^(-t³) dt
Since e^(-t³) is always positive, ∫₀ˣ e^(-t³) dt is positive when x > 0. So the function is increasing.
Find g"(x) by taking the derivative using second fundamental theorem of calculus:
g"(x) = e^(-x³)
g"(x) is always positive, so the function is always concave up.
