Banabas must pay his ex-wife an amount of R350 000 in two years’ time. Calculate the amount that he must invest today to have th

White raven [17]

Answer:

He must invest R297 521 today.

Step-by-step explanation:

The compound interest formula is given by:

$A(t) = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}$

Where A(t) is the amount of money after t years, P is the principal(the initial sum of money), r is the interest rate(as a decimal value), n is the number of times that interest is compounded per year and t is the time in years for which the money is invested or borrowed.

Banabas must pay his ex-wife an amount of R350 000 in two years’ time.

This means that $t = 2, A(t) = 350000$

Interest rate of 8.15% per annum compounded monthly:

This means that $r = 0.0815, n = 12$ .

Amount he must invest today:

This is P. So

$A(t) = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}$

$350000= P(1 + \frac{0.0815}{12})^{2*12}$

$P = \frac{350000}{(1 + \frac{0.0815}{12})^{2*12}}$

$P = 297521$

He must invest R297 521 today.

Complete the sentence. 7 is 35% of _________.

Sonbull [250]

Okay, pretend the number equals X,
so x is 35%, and that would equal 7, so then
x is still 35/100 = 7
x = 7 which is 100/35
x = 700/35
x = 20
then you get the number = 20
I hope this was helpful, and good luck! :P
