Answer:
The compounded annually account will earn more interest over 10 years
Step-by-step explanation:
The rule of the simple interest is I = Prt, where
- P is the original value
- r is the rate in decimal
- t is the time
The rule of the compounded interest is A = P, where
- A is the new value
- P is the original value
- r is the rate in decimal
- n is the number of periods
- t is the time
The interest I = A - P
∵ Each account start with $200
∴ P = 200
∵ They have an interest rate of 5%
∴ r = 5% = 5 ÷ 100 = 0.05
∵ One account earns simple interest and the other is compounded
annually
∴ n = 1 ⇒ compounded annually
∵ The time is 10 years
∴ t = 10
→ Substitute these values in the two rules above
∵ I = 200(0.05)(10)
∴ I = 100
∴ The simple interest = $100
∵ I = A - P
∵ A = 200
∴ A = 325.7789254
∵ I = 325.7789254 - 200
∴ I = 125.7789254
∴ The compounded interest = $125.7789254
∵ The simple interest is $100
∵ The compounded interest is $125.7789254
∵ $125.7789254 > $100
∴ The compounded annually account will earn more interest
over 10 years
The hurdle and runner form a right triangle (see attached picture) such that
sin(30°) = <em>h</em> / (5 ft)
and
cos(30°) = <em>x</em> / (5 ft)
where <em>h</em> is the height of the hurdle and <em>x</em> is the horizontal distance from where the runner jumps to the hurdle. So
<em>h</em> = (5 ft) sin(30°) = 5/2 ft = 2.5 ft
<em>x</em> = (5 ft) cos(30°) = (5√3)/2 ft ≈ 4.33 ft
Answer:
8 turtles
Step-by-step explanation:
Each of Liam's sea turtle sculpture weighs 3\8 pounds and he ships them in a wooden box that weighs 2 pounds.
The weight of the box filled with the sea turtles is 5 pounds.
This means that the weight of the sea turtles in the wooden box is:
5 - 2 = 3 pounds
To find the number of sea turtles in the box, we simply divide the total weight of the turtles in the box by the weight of each turtle. That is:
= 8 turtles
There are 8 turtles in the box.
