1 answer:

Answer:

a) amount in the bank after 7 years if interest is compounded quarterly is $6,605

b) amount in the bank after 7 years if interest is compounded quarterly is $6,612.57

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

Principal Amount P= 5000

Rate r= 4% = 0.04

time t = 7 years

The formula used is: $A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}$

where A is future value, P is principal amount, r is rate, n is compounded value and t is time

a) Find the amount in the bank after 7 years if interest is compounded quarterly?

If interest is compounded quarterly then n = 4

Using values given in question and finding A

$A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}\\A=5000(1+\frac{0.04}{4})^{4*7} \\A=5000(1+0.01)^{28}\\A=5000(1.01)^{28}\\A=5000(1.321)\\A=6,605$

So, amount in the bank after 7 years if interest is compounded quarterly is $6,605

b) Find the amount in the bank after 7 years if interest is compounded monthly?

If interest is compounded quarterly then n = 12

Using values given in question and finding A

$A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}\\A=5000(1+\frac{0.04}{12})^{12*7} \\A=5000(1+0.003)^{84}\\A=5000(1.003)^{84}\\A=5000(1.322)\\A=6,612.57$

So, amount in the bank after 7 years if interest is compounded quarterly is $6,612.57

A model rocket is launched with an initial velocity of 200 ft per second. The height h, in feet, of the rocket t seconds after t

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

2.10 s, 10.40 s.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the height of the rocket is given by the function:

$h=-16t^2+200t$

We are asked to find the time for which the height of the rocket will be 350 ft. So, for that moment, we know the height but we don't know the time; however, we know that the equation can help us to find the time, doing h=350:

$350=-16t^2+200t$

The last is a quadratic equation, which can be put in the form $at^2+bt+c=0$ and solved applying the formula:

$t=\frac{-b+-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$

So, let's put the equation on the form $at^2+bt+c=0$ adding $16t^2$ and subtracting $200t$ to each side of the equation; the result is:

$16t^2-200t+350=0$

So, we note that a=16, b=-200, and c=350.

Then,

$t_1=\frac{200-\sqrt{200^2-4*16*350} }{2*16}=2.10$

$t_2=\frac{200+\sqrt{200^2-4*16*350} }{2*16}=10.40$

According to the equation, that are the times for which the height will be 350 ft; that is because the rocket is going to ascend and then to fail again to the ground.

What is Szymborska's overall opinion of humanity in "A Contribution to Statistics?" Support your response with at least two deta

aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

Szymborska's overall opinion of humanity in "A Contribution to Statistics" is overall positive

Step-by-step explanation:

Szymborska is a poet who likes to comment on society with irony and sarcasm.One example of this is when she splits people into categories in her poem “A Contribution to Statistics”. Here Szymborska’s overall opinion of humanity may seem negative due to her bluntness and dry humor. For example, she says in the tenth stanza, “cruel when forced by circumstances -better not to know even ballpark figures.” It’s implied in this line that most people (maybe even all)are cruel or can be. She also says, “taking only things from life -thirty”which comments how lots of people are selfish. However, this seemingly cynical poem takes a sweeter turn near the end with statistics like, “worthy of compassion - ninety-nine” and “mortal- a hundred out of a hundred.” These lines reveal that even though Szymborska believes that humanity is extremely flawed the mass majority of us deserve and are worthy of love. Plus the fact that we’re all mortal may seem dark but the fact remains that both the righteous and the sinners will all end up in the same place. The fact that no one can escape

death gives humans equality in a way. Szymborska’s overall opinion of humanity turned out to be more optimistic after all.

Sandra is 4 feet tall. Pablo is 10% taller than Sandra and Michaels is 8% taller than Pablo. What is Michael height in feet

taurus [48]

We first calculate Pablo's height .

4 = 100%

x = 1% (Where x is 1% of Sandra's height.)

cross multiplying the equation, we get:

100x = 4 → x = 4/100 → x = 0.04

If 1% = 0.04, then 10% will be 0.04 × 10 = 0.4

Pablo's height is 4 + 0.4 = 4.4 feet.

Now we repeat the above steps to get Michal's height from Pablo's height

4.4 = 100%

x = 1% so:

100x = 4.4 → x = 4.4/ 100 → x = 0.044

If 1% = 0.044, then 8% will be 0.044 × 8 = 0.35

Michael's height is 4.4 + 0.35 = 4.75 feet.
