Please help me solve this
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sean buys some T-shirts for $12 each and the same number of belts for $7.50 each. Write an expression in the simplest form that represents the total amount.

So n represents the same number for t-shirts and belts.

Therefore n x 12.50 + n x 7.50 OR n(12.50+7.50)

The problem the student made was that they multiplied 12 times n plus 7.50. They forgot to multiply n times 7.50.

An expression that represents the total amount spent is 12n + 7.50n

Hope this helps!

If you deposit $25,000 now at 6.5% compounded quarterly, how much will you have in 30 years?
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

$172,984.44

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the formula

A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt} to compute the final amount

Here P is the principal amount, the original deposit = $25,000

r is the annual interest rate = 6.5% = 0.065 in decimal

n is the number of times the compounding takes place. Here it is quarterly so it is 4 times a year

t is the number of time periods ie 30 years

A is the accrued amount ie principal + interest

Computing different components,

nt = 4 \times 30 = 120

r/n =  0.065/4 = .01625

1 + r/n = 1.01625

(1 + r/n)^{nt} = 1.01625^{120}

Therefore

A = 25000 \times 1.0625^{120} = 172,984.44
