Answer:

she is wrong, offer 2 results in lower interests

Step-by-step explanation:

total amount paid if offer 1 is accepted:

$6,000 x (1 + 3%)² = $6,000 x 1.0609 = $6,365.40

she will pay $365.40 in interests

total amount paid if offer 2 is accepted:

($6,000 x 1.01) x 1.05 = $6,060 x 1.05 = $6,363

she will pay $363 in interests

Compounding interest refers to interest that earns more interest itself, e.g. in the first offer, the $180 of interests charged for the first year will earn $5.40 in extra interests. While offer 2 only charges $60 in interests during the first year which will in turn earn $3 of interests. The difference between both offers is that interest charges in offer 1 earn more interests than the interest in offer 2 = $5.40 - $3 = $2.40

The design for the palladium window shown includes a semicircular shape at the top. The bottom is formed by squares of equal siz
9966 [12]

Answer:

(a)\ Area = 3765.32

(b)\ Area = 4773

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

A_1 = 169in^2 --- area of each square

Shade = 4in

See attachment for window

Solving (a): Area of the window

First, we calculate the dimension of each square

Let the length be L;

So:

L^2 = A_1

L^2 = 169

L = \sqrt{169

L=13

The length of two squares make up the radius of the semicircle.

So:

r = 2 * L

r = 2*13

r = 26

The window is made up of a larger square and a semi-circle

Next, calculate the area of the larger square.

16 small squares made up the larger square.

So, the area is:

A_2 = 16 * 169

A_2 = 2704

The area of the semicircle is:

A_3 = \frac{\pi r^2}{2}

A_3 = \frac{3.14 * 26^2}{2}

A_3 = 1061.32

So, the area of the window is:

Area = A_2 + A_3

Area = 2704 + 1061.32

Area = 3765.32

Solving (b): Area of the shade

The shade extends 4 inches beyond the window.

This means that;

The bottom length is now; Initial length + 8

And the height is: Initial height + 4

In (a), the length of each square is calculated as: 13in

4 squares make up the length and the height.

So, the new dimension is:

Length = 4 * 13 + 8

Length = 60

Height = 4*13 + 4

Height = 56

The area is:

A_1 = 60 * 56 = 3360

The radius of the semicircle becomes initial radius + 4

r = 26 + 4 = 30

The area is:

A_2 = \frac{3.14 * 30^2}{2} = 1413

The area of the shade is:

Area = A_1 + A_2

Area = 3360 + 1413

Area = 4773
