A person invests $4000 at 2% interest compounded annually for 4 years and then invests the balance (the $4000 plus the interest

faltersainse [42]

$\bf \qquad \textit{Compound Interest Earned Amount}
\\\\
A=P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}
\quad 
\begin{cases}
A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\
P=\textit{original amount deposited}\to &\$4000\\
r=rate\to 2\%\to \frac{2}{100}\to &0.02\\
n=
\begin{array}{llll}
\textit{times it compounds per year}\\
\textit{annually, thus once}
\end{array}\to &1\\
t=years\to &4
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
A=4000\left(1+\frac{0.02}{1}\right)^{1\cdot 4}\implies A=4000(1.02)^4\implies A\approx 4329.73$

then she turns around and grabs those 4329.73 and put them in an account getting 8% APR I assume, so is annual compounding, for 7 years.

$\bf \qquad \textit{Compound Interest Earned Amount}
\\\\
A=P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}
\quad 
\begin{cases}
A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\
P=\textit{original amount deposited}\to &\$4329.73\\
r=rate\to 8\%\to \frac{8}{100}\to &0.08\\
n=
\begin{array}{llll}
\textit{times it compounds per year}\\
\textit{annually, thus once}
\end{array}\to &1\\
t=years\to &7
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
A=4329.73\left(1+\frac{0.08}{1}\right)^{1\cdot 7}\implies A=4329.73(1.08)^7\\\\\\ A\approx 7420.396$

add both amounts, and that's her investment for the 11 years.

71 ×10 ^ 3 Scientific Notation

kap26 [50]

Answer:

Move the decimal so there is one non-zero digit to the left of the decimal point. The number of decimal places you move will be the exponent on the 1010. If the decimal is being moved to the right, the exponent will be negative. If the decimal is being moved to the left, the exponent will be positive.

Ms. Lane borrowed $1,000 from her bank for one year at an interest rate of 10 percent. During that year, the price level went up

Lunna [17]

Answer:

Consider the complete question is,

'Ms. Lane borrowed $1,000 from her bank for one year at an interest rate of 10 percent. During that year, the price level went up by 15 percent. Which of the following statements is correct?

a. Ms. Lane will repay the bank fewer dollars than she initially borrowed.

b. Ms. Lane's repayment will give the bank less purchasing power than it originally loaned her.

c. Ms. Lane's repayment will give the bank greater purchasing power than it originally loaned her.

d. Ms. Lane's repayment will give the bank the same purchasing power that it originally loaned her.'

Solution :

We have,

The borrowed amount, P = $ 1,000,

Interest rate, r = 10% = 0.1,

Time, t = 1 year,

Thus, the returned amount,

$A=P(1+r)^t=1000(1+0.1)^1=1000(1.1) = \$ 1100$

∵ A > P

⇒ Ms. Lane will repay the bank greater dollars than she initially borrowed.

Now, the price level went up by 15 percent,

∵ 1000 + 15% of 1000 = 1000 + 150 = 1500

And, 1500 > 1100

⇒ Ms. Lane's repayment will give the bank less purchasing power than it originally loaned her.
