Simple Interest Rate Formula: $\displaystyle A = P(1 + r)^t$

A is final amount
P is principle (initial) amount
r is rate
t is time (in years)

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

P = 7200

r = 0.75% = 0.0075

t = 5

Step 2: Solve for A

Substitute in variables [Simple Interest Rate Formula]: $\displaystyle A = 7200(1 + 0.0075)^5$
(Parenthesis) Add: $\displaystyle A = 7200(1.0075)^5$
Evaluate exponents: $\displaystyle A = 7200(1.03807)$
Multiply: $\displaystyle A = 7474.08$

How do i solve 0.074 x n equals 74

Serhud [2]

0.074n = 74
multiply both sides by 1000 to make the process simpler
74n = 74000
divide both sides by 74
n = 1000

A tree farm owner uses a grid to mark where to plant trees in the spring. The first tree is planted at (2, 3). Each of the other

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

See attached image for the drawing of the first four trees (circled in green)

The patterns is:

x = 2+3n and y= 3+2n

Position of 7th tree is: (20,15) (circled in orange in the image)

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting at the location (2,3) the next x and y positions are given by:

x = 2+3n since the horizontal position needs to be increased by 3 units on each iteration,

and y= 3+2n since the vertical position needs to be increased by 2 units on each iteration

being n= 1 through 6 (to account for the next 6 trees that need to be planted)

With such pattern, the location of the seventh tree would be:

x = 2 + 3*6 =2 + 18 = 20

y = 3 + 2*6 = 3 + 12 = 15

That is, the point (20,15) on the plane.

Answer:

The first digit of the quotient should be placed at the leftmost place of the places of the all the digits in the quotient.This is so from the basic rule of division.

Step-by-step explanation:

The quotient is given by,

$[\frac {4,839}{15}]$ [where [x] is the greatest integer function on x]

= [322.6]

= 322

and the remainder is given by,

$15 \times 0.6$

= 9

So, the first digit of the quotient should be placed at the leftmost place of the places of the all the digits in the quotient and this is so from the very basic rule of division.

A machine that produces ball bearings has initially been set so that the true average diameter of the bearings it produces is .5

Answer:

7.3% of the bearings produced will not be acceptable

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 0.499, \sigma = 0.002$
