Answer: a) 8.779 years
b) 8.664 years
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
a)
- A: accumulated amount (balance)
- P: principal amount (original/initial investment)
- r: interest rate (convert to a decimal)
- n: number of times compounded per year
- t: number of years
Given: A = 1800, P = 900, r = 8% = 0.08, n = 3, t = unknown
b)
I think the better buy is the 1.50 for 5oz
Answer:
total profit gained = 20%
Step-by-step explanation:
profit = SP - CP = 18 - 15 = 3 naira
total profit percentage =
- ( profit / CP ) × 100
- 3 / 15 × 100
- 20%
hence her total percentage gain was 20%
What you can do is split one of the binomials and then apply the distributive property if f(x) = (x + 3)(x -2) split the 1st binomial f(x) = x(x -2) + 3(x -2) now apply the distributive property to get
f(x)=x2−2x+3x−6
which simplifies to
f(x)=x2+x−6
