Answer:

$117.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula:

I = Prt

Given:

P = 210

r = 8% = 0.08

t = 7

Work:

I = Prt

I = (210)(0.08)(7)

I = 117.6

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So with 8% interest, Jim will have to pay 8% more each year. For the first year we need to multiply 210 with 1.08 to find the amount that Jim would have had to pay to his sister if he had gotten an 8% interest for 1 year. Every time the year increases we need to multiply the previous number with 1.08 because we are looking for the 8% increased value of the previous one, therefore our equation is:

P(t) = 210*(1.08)^t --> (t=time in years, P(t)=amount of money Jim need to pay back with respect to time)

Since Jim gets an 8% interest for 7 years we have to put in 7 for t.

P(7)=210*(1.08)^7

which is approximately $359.903

Hunter-Best [27]

What you need to look for is $\frac { dr }{ dt }$ when r=8.

Now:

$Volume\quad of\quad a\quad sphere:\\ \\ V=\frac { 4 }{ 3 } \pi { r }^{ 3 }$

$\therefore \quad \frac { dV }{ dr } =\frac { 4 }{ 3 } \pi \cdot 3{ r }^{ 2 }=4\pi { r }^{ 2 }\\ \\ \therefore \quad \frac { dr }{ dV } =\frac { 1 }{ \frac { dV }{ dr } } =\frac { 1 }{ 4\pi { r }^{ 2 } }$

$And:\\ \\ \frac { dV }{ dt } =-\frac { 256\pi }{ 3 } \\ \\ Therefore:\\ \\ \frac { dr }{ dt } =\frac { dr }{ dV } \cdot \frac { dV }{ dt }$

$\\ \\ =\frac { 1 }{ 4\pi { r }^{ 2 } } \cdot -\frac { 256\pi }{ 3 } \\ \\ =-\frac { 256 }{ 12 } \cdot \frac { \pi }{ \pi } \cdot \frac { 1 }{ { r }^{ 2 } }$

$\\ \\ =-\frac { 64 }{ 3{ r }^{ 2 } } \\ \\ When\quad r=8,\\ \\ \frac { dr }{ dt } =-\frac { 64 }{ 3\cdot { 8 }^{ 2 } } =-\frac { 1 }{ 3 } \\ \\ Answer:\quad -\frac { 1 }{ 3 } \quad cm/sec$

If 6 people want to share a 30 pound bag of beans equally by weight how many pounds of beans should each person get? Between wha

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

The 6 people would each get 5lb. of beans. 5 lies between 4 and 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the answer to this problem, all you have to do is divide the total pounds of beans by how many people there are. 30 ÷ 6= 5, so each person would get 5 pounds. Since 5 comes between 4 & 6, you can use that as your answer.

How many odd integers are there between 101 and 999 have distinct digits?

guapka [62]

Every number will have only 3 digits. In the ones place, there are 5 choices. For every choice of digit made in the ones place, there are 8 possible choices for the hundreds place (you can choose from 1-9, omitting whatever is used in the ones place), and there are 8 possible choices for the tens place (you can choose from 0-9, omitting whatever has already been used elsewhere).

So there are $7\cdot8\cdot8=320$ such numbers.
