Ahat [919]

Answer: $58,088.57

Step-by-step explanation:

The investment is compounded weekly so you need to change the parameters of the equation to a weekly figure:

Interest rate is yearly so:

= 3.75%/52

= 3.75/52% per week

Number of periods is 4 years so:

= 4 * 52

= 208 weeks

Future value in 4 years is:

= 50,000 * ( 1 + 3.75/52%)²⁰⁸

= $58,088.57

A sporting goods store offers 40% discount on all golf clubs. Rocco spent 20% of the money in his savings account on a golf putt
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

Rocco doesn't have enough money to buy the golf irons

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the rest of the money left in the savings account

using proportion

\frac{\$48}{20\%}=\frac{x}{80\%}\\ \\x=48*80/20\\ \\x=\$192

step 2

we know that

The set of golf irons has an original price of $359

Applying 40% discount

100%-40%=60%=60/100=0.60

after the discount the price will be

0.60(\$359)=\$215.4

\$215.4> \$192

therefore

Rocco doesn't have enough money to buy the golf irons
