4. Two savings accounts each start with a $200 principal and have an interest rate of 5%. One account earns simple interest and

the other is compounded annually. Which account will earn more interest over 10 years? How much more?​

Answer:

The compounded annually account will earn more interest over 10 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule of the simple interest is I = Prt, where

  • P is the original value
  • r is the rate in decimal
  • t is the time

The rule of the compounded interest is A = P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}, where

  • A is the new value
  • P is the original value
  • r is the rate in decimal
  • n is the number of periods
  • t is the time

The interest I = A - P

∵ Each account start with $200

∴ P = 200

∵ They have an interest rate of 5%

∴ r = 5% = 5 ÷ 100 = 0.05

∵ One account earns simple interest and the other is compounded  

   annually

∴ n = 1 ⇒ compounded annually

∵ The time is 10 years

∴ t = 10

→ Substitute these values in the two rules above

∵ I = 200(0.05)(10)

∴ I = 100

∴ The simple interest = $100

∵ I = A - P

∵ A = 200(1+\frac{0.05}{1})^{1(10)}

∴ A = 325.7789254

∵ I = 325.7789254 - 200

∴ I = 125.7789254

∴ The compounded interest = $125.7789254

∵ The simple interest is $100

∵ The compounded interest is $125.7789254

∵ $125.7789254 > $100

∴ The compounded annually account will earn more interest

   over 10 years

I don't know to find the answer to 8. Can someone explain to me?
lapo4ka [179]
Perhaps the easiest way to find the midpoint between two given points is to average their coordinates: add them up and divide by 2.

A) The midpoint C' of AB is
.. (A +B)/2 = ((0, 0) +(m, n))/2 = ((0 +m)/2, (0 +n)/2) = (m/2, n/2) = C'
The midpoint B' is
.. (A +C)/2 = ((0, 0) +(p, 0))/2 = (p/2, 0) = B'
The midpoint A' is
.. (B +C)/2 = ((m, n) +(p, 0))/2 = ((m+p)/2, n/2) = A'

B) The slope of the line between (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by
.. slope = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)
Using the values for A and A', we have
.. slope = (n/2 -0)/((m+p)/2 -0) = n/(m+p)

C) We know the line goes through A = (0, 0), so we can write the point-slope form of the equation for AA' as
.. y -0 = (n/(m+p))*(x -0)
.. y = n*x/(m+p)

D) To show the point lies on the line, we can substitute its coordinates for x and y and see if we get something that looks true.
.. (x, y) = ((m+p)/3, n/3)
Putting these into our equation, we have
.. n/3 = n*((m+p)/3)/(m+p)
The expression on the right has factors of (m+p) that cancel*, so we end up with
.. n/3 = n/3 . . . . . . . true for any n

_____
* The only constraint is that (m+p) ≠ 0. Since m and p are both in the first quadrant, their sum must be non-zero and this constraint is satisfied.

The purpose of the exercise is to show that all three medians of a triangle intersect in a single point.
