Answer:

$7.14

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p, d, q represent the numbers of pennies, dimes, and quarters in the collection, respectively.

p + d + q = 45 . . . . . . . . there are 45 coins in the collection

2p +5 = q . . . . . . . . . . . . 5 more than twice the number of pennies

p + 4 = d . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4 more than the number of pennies

Substituting the last two equations into the first gives ...

p +(p +4) +(2p +5) = 45

4p = 36 . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 9

p = 9 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 4

d = 9 +4 = 13

q = 2(9) +5 = 23

The value of the collection is ...

23(0.25) +13(0.10) +9(0.01) = 5.75 +1.30 +0.09 = 7.14

The coin collection is worth $7.14.

Find the amount of each payment to be made into a sinking fund which earns 9% compounded quarterly and produces $43 comma 000

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

$2647.18

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula : $A[\frac{1+(\frac{r}{n})^{n}-1 }{(\frac{r}{n} )}]$

Future value = $43,000

r = rate of interest = 9% = 0.09

t = 3.5 years (compounded quarterly)

n = number of compounding (3.5 × 4) = 14

Now put the values into formula :

43000 = $A[\frac{1+(\frac{0.09}{4})^{14}-1 }{(\frac{0.09}{4} )}]$

$43000=A(\frac{(1+0.0225)^{14}-1}{\frac{0.09}{4}})$

$43000=A(\frac{(1.0225)^{14}-1}{0.0225})$

43000=A( $\frac{0.365483427}{0.0225})$

43,000 = A(16.243708)

A = $\frac{43000}{16.243708}$

A = $2,647.17883 ≈ $2647.18

you deposit 1000 in savings account that earns .5% each month assuming you do not deposit or withdraw any money from the account

ikadub [295]

Answer:

$1015.11

Step-by-step explanation:

Compounded interest rate formula: A = P(1 + r/n)^t

Step 1: Plug in known variables

A = 1000(1 + 0.005/12)^36

Step 2: Multiply it all together

1000(1.00042)^36

1000(1.01511)

1015.11

This is a pretty bad bank considering only giving you .5% interest per month.

Pauline is building a fence around her vegetable garden, what length of fence will she need to build?

Nuetrik [128]

I FOUND YOUR COMPLETE QUESTION IN OTHER SOURCES.
SEE ATTACHED IMAGE.
First we look for the hypotenuse of both triangles.
Left triangle:
Sine (68.1) = (1.75) / (h)
h = (1.75) / Sine (68.1)
h = 1.886108667
h = 1.9m
Right triangle:
Sine (49.4) = (1.75) / (h)
h = (1.75) / Sine (49.4)
h = 2.304841475
h = 2.3m
Finally adding the perimeter:
P = 5 + 1.9 + 2.75 + 2.3
P = 11.95 m
Answer:
she will need to build 11.95 m of fence
