A stock market analyst observes the following for the price of two stocks that he owns, one of which is increasing at an exponen

tial rate (geometric) and the other is increasing in a linear fashion (arithmetic).
Stock A: Equation: an = 15n + 143, where an is the value of the stock and n is the number of years.


Year Price
1 $158.00
2 $173.00
3 $188.00
4 $203.00
5 $218.00


Stock B: Equation: an = 24(1.1)n − 1, where an is the value of the stock and n is the number of years.

Year Price
1 $24.00
2 $26.40
3 $29.04
4 $31.94
5 $35.14


Assuming these stock values continue to increase in the same manner until retirement, which stock option is worth more in 50 years and how much more is this stock worth per share?

Answer:

Use the formulas and find 5th term of both and compare

<u>Stock A</u>

  • a₅₀ = 15(50) + 143 = $893

<u>Stock B</u>

  • a₅₀ = 24(1.1)⁴⁹ = $2561.25

<u>As we see Stock B share has greater value in 50 years and the difference is:</u>

  • $2561.25 - $893 = $1668.25

Write each expression in simplified radical form PLEASE HELP ITS DUE FRIDAY AND I DONT UNDERSTAND THIS AT ALL REALLY BAD TEACHER
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

1) The simplified radical form is  \sqrt{36x^2}=6x

2) The simplified radical form is  \sqrt{72x^3}=6x\sqrt{2x}

3) The simplified radical form is  \sqrt{15x^8}=\sqrt{15}x^4

4) The simplified radical form is  \sqrt{36x^7}=6x^3\sqrt{x}

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Given expression is \sqrt{36x^2}

To find the simplified radical form of the given expression :

\sqrt{36x^2}

=\sqrt{36\times x^2}

=\sqrt{36}\times \sqrt{x^2}

=\sqrt{6\times 6}\times \sqrt{x\times x}

=6\times x

\sqrt{36x^2}=6x

Therefore the simplified radical form is  \sqrt{36x^2}=6x

2)Given expression is \sqrt{72x^3}

To find the simplified radical form of the given expression :

\sqrt{72x^3}

=\sqrt{72\times x^3}

=\sqrt{72}\times \sqrt{x^3}

=\sqrt{9\times 8}\times \sqrt{x\times x\times x}

=\sqrt{9}\times \sqrt{8}\times x\sqrt{x}

=3\times 2\sqrt{2}\times x\sqrt{x}

\sqrt{72x^3}=6x\sqrt{2x}

Therefore the simplified radical form is  \sqrt{72x^3}=6x\sqrt{2x}

3) Given expression is \sqrt{15x^8}

To find the simplified radical form of the given expression :

\sqrt{15x^8}

=\sqrt{15\times x^8}

=\sqrt{15}\times \sqrt{x^8}

=\sqrt{5\times 3}\times \sqrt{x^4\times x^4}

=\sqrt{15}\times x^4

\sqrt{15x^8}=\sqrt{15}x^4

Therefore the simplified radical form is  \sqrt{15x^8}=\sqrt{15}x^4

4) Given expression is \sqrt{36x^7}

To find the simplified radical form of the given expression :

\sqrt{36x^7}

=\sqrt{36\times x^7}

=\sqrt{36}\times \sqrt{x^7}

=\sqrt{6\times 6}\times \sqrt{x^3\times x^3\times x}

=6\times x^3\sqrt{x}

\sqrt{36x^7}=6x^3\sqrt{x}

Therefore the simplified radical form is  \sqrt{36x^7}=6x^3\sqrt{x}

The American Veterinary Association claims that the annual cost of medical care for dogs averages $100 with a standard deviation
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

The probability that the cost for someone's dog is higher than for the cat is 33.2%.

Step-by-step explanation:

With the data given, we know that the difference in cost of medical care of dogs and cats have a normal distribution with μ=-20 and σ=46.

To know the probability of the cost for the dog is higher than the cat, we have to calculate the probability of P(d>0).

Then we have to calculate z, and look up in a standarized normal distribution table.

Calculate z:

z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{0-(-20)}{46}=\frac{20}{46}=   0.4348

The probability of the difference being higher than 0, we have:

P(d>0)=P(z>0.4348)=0.33185

We can say that the probability that the cost for someone's dog is higher than for the cat is 33.2%.

Find the difference: 7 7/8 - 3 1/4
DIA [1.3K]
In order to subtract mixed fractions, we must convert them into improper fractions first. To do this simply multiply the whole number by the denominator and add the numerator. The product of this operation will be the new numerator (the whole number is no longer present).

(56 + 7)/8 - (12 + 1)/4
= 63/8 - 13/4

Now that we have our fractions in improper form, we must find the least common denominator which is 8. To avoid changing the value of the second fraction, multiply both the numerator and denominator by 2 (which is essentially 2/2 which equals to 1).

63/8 - 26/8
= 37/8

Determine if the matrix below is invertible. Use as few calculations as possible. Justify your answer. [Start 4 By 4 Matrix 1st
Len [333]

Answer:

Yes, it is invertible

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find in the matrix determinant is different from zero, since iif it is, that the matrix is invertible.

Let's use co-factor expansion to find the determinant of this 4x4 matrix, using the column that has more zeroes in it as the co-factor, so we reduce the number of determinant calculations for the obtained sub-matrices.We pick the first column for that since it has three zeros!

Then the determinant of this matrix becomes:

4\,*Det\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&4&6\\0&3&8\\0&0&1\end{array}\right] +0+0+0

And the determinant of these 3x3 matrix is very simple because most of the cross multiplications render zero:

Det\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&4&6\\0&3&8\\0&0&1\end{array}\right] =1 \,(3\,*\,1-0)+4\,(0-0)+6\,(0-0)=3

Therefore, the Det of the initial matrix is : 4 * 3 = 12

and then the matrix is invertible

5. In the given sequence 32, 28, 24, 20, What rule is applied?
Nitella [24]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

A number is <em>n</em>, therefore you can start off with 32 and subtract 4 getting you 28. Subtract 4 and you get 24, and again 20.
