Answer:

Her account balance after 3 years is $4,246.71

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are tasked with calculating what Hannah's account balance will be after 3 years and the error she made in her calculations

Mathematically, to calculate the account balance after 3 years, we use the formula for the compound interest as follows.

Mathematically, the amount A earned on a compound interest is calculated as

A = P(1+r/n)^{nt}

where A is the account balance after the number of years which is what we want to know

P is the initial amount invested which is $4000

r is the interest rate which is 2%(2/100 = 0.02) according to the question

n is the number of times interest is compounded per year which is 4(quarterly means every 3 months)

t is the number of years which is 3

We plug the values into the question;

A = 4000(1 + 0.02/4)^(3)(4)

A = 4000(1+0.005)^12

A = 4000(1.005)^12

A = $4,246.71

P.S ; I do not see Hannah's calculation and as such I cannot spot where she made the error in her calculations

Suppose a sample of 716 suspected criminals is drawn. Of these people, 286 were captured. Using the data, estimate the proportio
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

The proportion is p = 0.399

Step-by-step explanation:

The estimate of a proportion is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

Desired outcomes:

286 people captured, so D = 286.

Total outcomes:

Sample of 716 suspected criminals, so T = 716.

Proportion

p = \frac{286}{716} = 0.399

Oints Q and R are midpoints of the sides of triangle ABC.
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

AQ = 20 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Comparing triangle AQR to ABC,

\frac{AQ}{AB} = \frac{QR}{BC}

\frac{4p}{8p} = \frac{2p + 3}{6p-4}

cross multiply and make p the subject of formula, we have:

8p (2p+3) = 4p(6p-4)

16p^{2} + 24p = 24p^{2} - 16p

24p + 16p = 24p^{2} - 16p^{2}

40p = 8p^{2}

divide through by 8p,

p = 5

Therefore, AQ = 4p

                        = 4 × 5

                        = 20

AQ = 20 units

What is the equation of a line that passes through the points (3, 6) and (8, 4)?
romanna [79]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  y = -2/5x +36/5 . . . . . slope-intercept form

  2x +5y = 36 . . . . . . . . standard form

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the 2-point form of the equation of a line to find it.

  y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1

  y = (4 -6)/(8 -3)(x -3) +6

  y = -2/5(x -3) +6

  y = -2/5x +36/5 . . . . slope-intercept form

  2x +5y = 36 . . . . . . . standard form
