Answer:
there is an economic principle that states that 1 dollar today is worth more than 1 dollar in the future, since an invested dollar could earn interests and gain value.
For example, we can assume a 6% interest rate (0.5% monthly interest rate), and using the present value formula we can determine the present value of $100:
- given to us in 30 days = $100 / (1 + 0.5%)¹ = $99.50
- given to us in 150 days = $100 / (1 + 0.5%)⁵ = $97.54
- given to us in 300 days = $100 / (1 + 0.5%)¹⁰ = $95.13
In order to calculate the value of $100 given to us tomorrow, we would need to determine a daily interest rate = 6% / 360 = 0.00017
- $100 given to us tomorrow = $100 / (1 + 0.00017)¹ = $99.98
since the amount of money is not that large and the interest rate is rather low, the difference in value is not that large. But imagine if you used a 24% interest rate instead of 6% (monthly interest rate = 2%)
- $100 given to us in 30 days = $100 / (1 + 2%)¹ = $98.04
- $100 given to us in 150 days = $100 / (1 + 2%)⁵ = $90.57
- $100 given to us in 300 days = $100 / (1 + 2%)¹⁰ = $82.03
as the interest rate increases, the present value decreases.
Answer:
d = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
d( 3 ) = ( -6 / d )d
3d = -6
(3d)/3 = (-6)/3
d = -2
Look at all the choices
we know that at t = 0, the height of the rock is 16
choices H and I do not have a value of 16 at t = 0.
H: h(0) = -5.2(0)² + 24(0) - 12 = -12
I: h(0) = -4.2(0)² + 26(0) - 20 = -20
so we are left with F and G
if we take choice F and plug in t = 1
h(1) = -4.7(1)² - 25(1) + 16 = -13.7
if we take choice G and plug in t = 1
h(1) = -4.7(1)² + 25(1) + 16 = 36.3
only choice G works for us since it has 36.3 at t = 1
you could have also put these points in a graphing calculator and then use the quadratic regression feature to get an equation that will model this data
The answer is pi but to fifteen places
1 1/2
6÷4=1. 1/2
so i hope this is what your looking for
