Answer:

288 small fish.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing is to calculate the volume of the prism, which would be the area of the base (length by width) and that by the height, that is:

a = l * w * h

l = 6

w = 4

h = 4

Replacing

a = 6 * 4 * 4

a = 96 cubic feet

they tell us that per cubic foot there is room for 3 small fish, therefore:

96 * 3 = 288

Which means that there are 288 small fish.

Molly opened a savings account with a one‐time deposit of $100 that will be left in the account for at least 5 years. The saving

Anettt [7]

The amount of interest Molly will earn after 5 years on a deposit of $\$100$ compounded annually over 5 years is $\$27.63$

First, we need to find the future value of her investment, then we subtract the original deposit from it to get the amount of interest she will get at the end of 5 years.

The future value of an investment that is compounded annually is given by

$A=P(1+r)^t$

where

$A=\text{Amount of money in Molly's account after 5 years}\\P=\text{Molly's initial deposit into her account}=\$500\\r=\text{The annual interest rate as a decimal}=0.05\\t=\text{The time the money is invested (in years)}=5$

Substituting the available values into the formula and solving

$A=100(1+0.05)^5=100(1.05)^5 \approx \$ 127.63$

The interest Molly will earn after 5 years is

$A-P=\$127.63-\$100=\$27.63$

Therefore, the amount of interest Molly will earn after 5 years on a deposit of $\$100$ compounded annually over 5 years is $\$27.63$

Helen determined she walks about 1,800 steps per 4/5 mile. How many steps did she take if she walked 3 miles?

olga_2 [115]

$1,800\ steps\ \ \rightarrow\ \ \frac{4}{5} \ mile\\ x\ \ \rightarrow\ \ 3\ miles\\ \\\frac{4}{5} \cdot x=1,800\cdot 3\ /\cdot\frac{5}{4} \\ \\x=1,800\cdot\frac{5}{4}\cdot3 \\ \\x=450\cdot15\\ \\x=6750\ [steps]$
