Answer:

They lose about 2.79% in purchasing power.

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever you're dealing with purchasing power and inflation, you need to carefully define what the reference is for any changes you might be talking about. Here, we take <em>purchasing power at the beginning of the year</em> as the reference. Since we don't know when the 6% year occurred relative to the year in which the saving balance was $200,000, we choose to deal primarily with percentages, rather than dollar amounts.

Each day, the account value is multiplied by (1 + 0.03/365), so at the end of the year the value is multiplied by about

... (1 +0.03/365)^365 ≈ 1.03045326

Something that had a cost of 1 at the beginning of the year will have a cost of 1.06 at the end of the year. A savings account value of 1 at the beginning of the year would purchase one whole item. At the end of the year, the value of the savings account will purchase ...

... 1.03045326 / 1.06 ≈ 0.9721 . . . items

That is, the loss of purchasing power is about ...

... 1 - 0.9721 = 2.79%

_____

If the account value is $200,000 at the beginning of the year in question, then the purchasing power <em>normalized to what it was at the beginning of the year</em> is now $194,425.14, about $5,574.85 less.

A glass paperweight has a composite shape: a square pyramid fitting exacty on top of an 8 centimeter cube. The pyramid has a hei
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

Part 1) The volume of the paperweight is 576\ cm^{3}

Part 2) The total surface area of the paperweight is 400\ cm^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) what is the volume of the paperweight?

we know that

The volume of the paperweight is equal to the volume of the square pyramid plus the volume of the cube

step 1

Find the volume of the pyramid

The volume of the pyramid is equal to

V=\frac{1}{3}BH

where

B is the area of the square base

H is the height of the pyramid

B=8^{2}=64\ cm^{2}

H=3\ cm

substitute

V=\frac{1}{3}(64)(3)=64\ cm^{3}

step 2

Find the volume of the cube

The volume of the cube is equal to

V=b^{3}

V=8^{3}=512\ cm^{3}

step 3

Find the volume of the paperweight

64\ cm^{3}+512\ cm^{3}=576\ cm^{3}

Part 2) what is the total surface area of the paperweight?​

we know that

The total surface area of the paperweight is equal to the surface area of 5 faces of the cube plus the lateral area of the pyramid

step 1

Find the surface area of 5 faces of the cube

SA=5b^{2}

SA=5(8^{2})=320\ cm^{2}

step 2

Find the lateral area of the pyramid

LA=4[\frac{1}{2}bh]

LA=4[\frac{1}{2}(8)(5)]=80\ cm^{2}

step 3

Find the total surface area of the paperweight

320\ cm^{2}+80\ cm^{2}=400\ cm^{2}
