Answer:

First of all, this question is not complete. So, we will be hypothetically create two accounts and try to choose the one with the greater profit.

Choice 1 = X = Final Amount after 12 years = $5600

Choice 2 = Y = Final Amount after 12 years = $6285.50

Hence, Lorena should choose choice 2, as it gives more profit over than choice 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, this question is not complete. So, we will be hypothetically create two accounts and try to choose the one with the greater profit.

Initial Deposit Amount = $3500

Time period = 12 years

Let's Suppose Lorena has two X and Y choices of accounts at H-town Bank.

X = simple interest of 5% over the initial amount for 12 years.

Y = Compound interest 5% over the initial amount for 12 years.

Solution:

Let's calculate the profit for choice 1 = X

Simple interest = 5%

Initial amount = $3500

Time period = 12 years

Formula = A = P (1 + rt)

where, A = Final amount after 12 years

t = time period in years  = 12

P = initial amount to be deposited = $3500

r = annual interest rate = 5%

Plug in the values to get the total amount.

A = 3500(1+0.05x12)

A = $5600 = final amount Lorena will get after 12 years.

Let's calculate the profit for choice 2 = Y

Compound interest = 5%

Initial amount = $3500

Time period = 12 years

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

where,

A = Final amount after 12 years

t = time period in years  = 12

P = initial amount to be deposited = $3500

r = annual interest rate = 5%

n = number of times interest rate is applied or compounded. = 12

Plug in the values to get the total amount.

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

A = $6285.50

Hence, Lorena should choose choice 2, as it gives more profit over than choice 1.

State the radius of the circle of the equation
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

radius = √5 = 2.24 to nearest hundredth.

Step-by-step explanation:

(x + 3)^2 + (y + 3)^2 = 5   comparing with the standard form

(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2

-h = 2 so h = -3,  -k = 3  so k = -3.

r^2 = 5 so r = √5.

A certain bleach is 5% active ingredients. In 10 gallons of this bleach, how much is active ingredients
aalyn [17]
You didn't include how many gallons each container of bleach has, so I'm just going assume one container has a gallon inside. if 5% of one gallon is active Ingredients, and there are 10 gallons, then that's 1,000%. (one gal = 100%. 100x10= 1,000) 5 x 10= 50, so 50% of 1,000% is active ingredients, which can be simplified to 5% anyway, so 5%
