1. Occasionally a savings account may actually pay interest compounded continuously. For each​ deposit, find the interest earned if interest is compounded​ (a) semiannually,​ (b) quarterly,​ (c) monthly,​ (d) daily, and​ (e) continuously. Use 1 year = 365 days.

Principal ​$1031

Rate 1.4%

Time 3 years

Answer:

a) $ 44.07

b) $ 44.15

c) $ 44.20

d) $ 44.22

e) $ 44.22

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the total amount earned using compound interest is given as:

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

Where A = Total amount earned after time t

P = Principal = $1031

r = Interest rate = 1.4%

n = compounding frequency

t = Time in years = 3 years

For each​ deposit, find the interest earned if interest is compounded

(a) semiannually

This means the interest is compounded 2 times in a year

Hence:

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

A = 1031(1 + 0.014/2) ^2 × 3

A = 1031 (1 + 0.007)^6

A = $ 1,075.07

A = P + I where

I = A - P

I = $1075.07 - $1031

P (principal) = $ 1,031.00

I (interest) = $ 44.07

​(b) quarterly

This means the interest is compounded 4 times in a year

Hence:

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

A = 1031(1 + 0.014/4) ^4 × 3

A = 1031 (1 + 0.014/4)^12

A = $ 1,075.15

I = A - P

I = $1075.15 - $1031

A = P + I where

P (principal) = $ 1,031.00

I (interest) = $ 44.15

(c) monthly,

​ This means the interest is compounded 12 times in a year

Hence:

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

A = 1031(1 + 0.014/12) ^12 × 3

A = 1031 (1 + 0.014/12)^36

A = $ 1,075.20

A = P + I where

I = A - P

I = $1075.20 - $1031

P (principal) = $ 1,031.00

I (interest) = $ 44.20

(d) daily,Use 1 year = 365 days

This means the interest is compounded 365 times in a year

Hence:

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

A = 1031(1 + 0.014/365) ^2 × 3

A = 1031 (1 + 0.00365)^365 × 3

A = $ 1,075.22

A = P + I where

I = A - P

I = $1075.22 - $1031

P (principal) = $ 1,031.00

I (interest) = $ 44.22

(e) continuously. .

This means the interest is compounded 2 times in a year

Hence:

A = Pe^rt

A = 1031 × e ^0.014 × 3

A = $ 1,075.22

A = P + I where

I = A - P

I = $1075.22 - $1031

P (principal) = $ 1,031.00

I (interest) = $ 44.22

What is the invers function of f(x)=(n+1)^3?
zimovet [89]

Answer:

f^{-1}(x)=\sqrt[3]{x}-1

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=(x+1)^3\\\\y=(x+1)^3\\\\x=(y+1)^3\\\\\sqrt[3]{x}=y+1\\\\y=\sqrt[3]{x}-1\\ \\f^{-1}(x)=\sqrt[3]{x}-1

Graphing both inverses, they will be symmetrical about the line y=x.

Earth is approximately 9.3 × 107 miles from the sun. Saturn is approximately 8.87 × 108 miles from the sun. About how much farth
Lostsunrise [7]
First you get both distances
9.3 x 107 = 995.1 miles
8.87 x 108 = 957.96 miles
then you subtract them both
995.1 - 957.96 = 37.14 miles
and 37.14 miles is the distance between Earth and Saturn.

Determine the equation of a line that passrs through the point (4,-1) and also parallel to y=3x+4
nexus9112 [7]
First, plug in the given point into y=mx +b to find b (the y-intercept of the line). Use the same slope (m) in the equation since parallel lines have the same slope (3 in this case).

-1 = 3(4) +b
-1 = 12 + b Subtract 12 to both sides.
-13 = b

Now, put your m and b into y=mx+b.

The final answer/equation of your line is:

y=3x -13
