Answer: $ 55

Step-by-step explanation:

When interest is compounded continuously, the final amount will be

A=Pe^{rt}

When interest is compounded daily, the final amount will be

A=P(1+\dfrac{r}{365})^{365t}

, where P= Principal , r = rate of interest , t = time

For Hunter , P= $750, r = 6\dfrac{5}{8}\%=\dfrac{53}{8}\%=\dfrac{53}{800}=0.06625

t = 18 years

A=750e^{0.06625(18)}=\$2471.48

For London , P= $750, r = 6\dfrac{1}{2}\%=\dfrac{13}{2}\%=\neq \dfrac{13}{200}=0.065

t = 18 years

A=750(1+\dfrac{0.065}{365})^{18(365)}=\$2416.24

Difference = $ 2471.48 - $ 2416.24 =$ 55.24≈$ 55

Hence, Hunter would have $ 55 more than London in his account .

REN fine six peanuts, four raisins, 3 cranberries, and 5 chocolate chips in a handful of trail mix. For every 9 pieces in Ren's
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

2 raisins.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent total number of required ingredient.

We have been given that Ren finds 6 peanuts, 4 raisins, 3 cranberries, and 5 chocolate chips in a handful of trail mix. We are asked to find of which ingredient Ren will have 2 pieces for a total of 9 pieces.

First of all, we will find total number of ingredients by adding each ingredient as:

\text{Total number of ingredients}=6+4+3+5

\text{Total number of ingredients}=18

Now, we will use ratio to solve for our given problem as:

\frac{\text{Required ingredient}}{\text{Total ingredient}}=\frac{2}{9}

\frac{x}{18}=\frac{2}{9}

\frac{x}{18}\cdot 18=\frac{2}{9}\cdot 18

x=\frac{2}{1}\cdot 2

x=4

Since there are 4 raisins, therefore, for  every 9 pieces in Ren's handful of trail mix there are 2 raisins.

TU = 3, RS = 15, TW = 4, TR = 9; Assume that the sides of triangle TUW are proportional to the sides of triangle TRS. What is th
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

  WS=8\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two triangles are similar

then

the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal and the corresponding angles are also equal

In this problem

\frac{TU}{TR}=\frac{UW}{RS}=\frac{TW}{TS}

we have

TU=3\ units, RS=15\ units, TW=4\ units,TR=9\ units

Find the value of TS

\frac{TU}{TR}=\frac{TW}{TS}

substitute

\frac{3}{9}=\frac{4}{TS}

TS=36/3=12\ units

WS=TS-TW

WS=12-4=8\ units

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

grin007 [14]
<span>The question is asking us to determine the length of the floor of a rectangular deck. The rectangular deck has an area of 600 squared feet. The floor is 20 feet wide ( W = 20 ft ). Formula for the area of the rectangle is: A = L x W. 600 = L X 20; L = 600 : 20; L = 30 ft. Answer: The floor is 30 ft long.</span>
