You save for retirement over 30 years by investing $850/month in a stock account that yields 10%. You invest $350/month in a bon

sergejj [24]

Answer:

$13,287.70

Step-by-step explanation:

The future value of the stock account is computed as the sum of a geometric series. This computation assumes that the annual yield is compounded monthly.

FV = p((1+r/12)^(12n) -1)/(r/12)

For the stock account, p=850, r=0.10, n=30, so the future values is ...

FV = 850((1+.10/12)^360-1)/(.10/12)) = 1,921,414.74

For the bond account, p=350, r=.06, n=30, so the future value is ...

FV = 350((1+.06/12)^360 -1)/(.06/12) = 351,580.26

The combined account value at the end of 30 years is ...

$1,921,414.74 + 351,580.26 = $2,272,995.00

_____

The monthly payment that can be made over a 25 year period is given by the amortization formula.

A = P(r/12)/(1 -(1 +r/12)^(-12n))

= $2,272,995.00(.05/12)/(1 -(1+.05/12)^-300) = $13,287.70

You can withdraw $13,287.70 each month assuming a 25-year withdrawal period.

The population of a town in 2007 is 113, 505

ELEN [110]

from 2007 to 2012 is only 5 years, so we can see this as a compound interest with a rate of 1.2% per annum for 5 years, so

$~~~~~~ \textit{Compound Interest Earned Amount} \\\\ A=P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt} \quad \begin{cases} A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\dotfill &\$113505\\ r=rate\to 1.2\%\to \frac{1.2}{100}\dotfill &0.012\\ n= \begin{array}{llll} \textit{times it compounds per year}\\ \textit{per year, thus once} \end{array}\dotfill &1\\ t=years\dotfill &5 \end{cases} \\\\\\ A=113505\left(1+\frac{0.012}{1}\right)^{1\cdot 5}\implies A=113505(1.012)^5\implies A\approx 120481$

What is 3a+2c=26 solve for a and c

blondinia [14]

Simplifying

3a + 2b + c = 26

Solving

3a + 2b + c = 26

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-2b' to each side of the equation.

3a + 2b + -2b + c = 26 + -2b

Combine like terms: 2b + -2b = 0

3a + 0 + c = 26 + -2b

3a + c = 26 + -2b

Add '-1c' to each side of the equation.

3a + c + -1c = 26 + -2b + -1c

Combine like terms: c + -1c = 0

3a + 0 = 26 + -2b + -1c

3a = 26 + -2b + -1c

Divide each side by '3'.

a = 8.666666667 + -0.6666666667b + -0.3333333333c

Simplifying

a = 8.666666667 + -0.6666666667b + -0.3333333333c

What is the answer to this?

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If you simplify the equations and the left side is identical to the right side, then there are an infinite number of solutions: the equation is true for all values of x.

Another way to simplify the equation is to subtract the right side from both sides. If that simplifies to 0 = 0, then there are an infinite number of solutions.

2x -6 -6x = 2 -4x . . . . eliminate parentheses

-4x -6 = -4x +2 . . . . no solutions (no value of x makes this true)

x +2 = 15x +10 +2x . . . . eliminate parentheses

x +2 = 17x +10 . . . . one solution (x=-1/2)

4 +6x = 6x +4 . . . . eliminate parentheses

6x +4 = 6x +4 . . . . infinite solutions

6x +24 = 2x -4 . . . . eliminate parentheses; one solution (x=-7)
