Allie deposited $80 in a savings account earning 10% interest, compounded annually. To the nearest cent, how much will she have

77julia77 [94]

Answer: $96.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Formular for Compounding annually :

A =P ( 1 + r/n) ^nt

Where p is the Principal given as $80

r is the rate given as 10% = 10/100 = 0.1

n is the number of times the principal was compounded, given as 1

t is the time, given as 2 years:

Slot the values into the formula:

A= $80 ( 1 + 0.1/1) ^ (1 × 2)

A= $80 ( 1 + 0.1) ^2

A= $80 ( 1.1) ^2

A= $80 (1.21)

A= $80 x 1.21

A= $96.8

96.8 is already rounded to the nearest cent.

To which subset of real numbers does the number 1/5 belong?

nasty-shy [4]

Answer: Option 'B' and 'C' are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know that irrational numbers are those real number which cannot be written in $\frac{p}{q}$ form.

Rational numbers are those real numbers which can be written in $\frac{p}{q}$ form.

Inverse property of multiplication is that property in which we write a number in reciprocal form .

Whole numbers starts from 0 and Natural numbers start from 1 and Integers contain both positive and negative numbers.

Hence, $\frac{1}{5}$ belongs to rational numbers sets and inverse property of multiplication sets.

Therefore, Option 'B' and 'C' are correct.
