Answer:

2.02955

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Susan invests $Z as each year ends for seven years.

So we assume that Z = 1

Susan's accrued value comprises $7 invested each year at a 6 percent annual effective rate.

The cashflow interest:

The cashflow of Susan interest payments are:

Payments   Time

0                     1

0.05               2

2(0.05)           3

3(0.05)           4

4(0.05)            5

5(0.05)            6

6(0.05)            7

The accumulated value of this cash flow is:

(0.05)I_{6\%} = (0.05) \dfrac{((1+0.06)_{6\%} - 6)}{0.06} \\ \\ \implies 1.1653

So Susan accumulated values is:

X = 7 + 1.1653

X = 8.1653

Lori's accumulated value is $14, which she has set aside to plan her cash flow for interest.

The cashflow of Lori interest payments are;

Payments    0     0.025     2(0.025)       3(0.025)    .........   13(0.025)

Time             1        2              3                    4            ..........  14

The accumulated value of cash flow is:

(0.025 )(I)_{3\%} =(0.025) \dfrac{(1+0.03)_{3\%}-13}{0.03}\\ \\= 2.5719

Now, Lori's accumulated value is:

Y = 14 + 2.5719

Y = 16.5719

Since; Susan value X = 8.1653

Lori's value Y = 16.5719

∴

\dfrac{Y}{X}= \dfrac{16.5719}{8.1653}

= 2.02955

You deposit $2200 Into three separate bank accounts for each pay 3% annual interest. How much interest does each account earn af
Hatshy [7]

The formula to find the amount is

A=P(1+r)^n

Here A = amount

P is the principal

r is the rate

n is the number of years

Then to find the interest we subtract principal from amount.

Interest = A - P

Here

P= 2200, r = 3% = 0.03 , n = 6 years

A = 2200 (1+0.03)^6=2626.92

Hence the interest earned = 2626.92-2200 = $426.92

Now if the total of $2200 was deposited in three banks then each account earns \frac{426.92}{3}= 142.31

Each account earns $142.31

Given the arithmetic sequence an = 4 − 3(n − 1), what is the domain for n? (6 points)
dedylja [7]
Given the arithmetic sequence is given by:
an=4-3(n-1)
writing the above into a straight line form we get:
an=4+3-3n
an=-3n+4
this a straight line equation with a negative slope, thus the domain will be:
(-∞,∞)
