Given:

Principal = $1290

Rate of simple interest = 4%

Time = 9 months

To find:

The interest and total saving in the account altogether.

Solution:

The formula for simple interest is

$I=\dfrac{P\times r\times t}{100}$ ...(i)

where, P is principal, r is rate of interest and t is time in years.

We know that,

$12\ months=1\ year$

$1\ month=\dfrac{1}{12}\ year$

$9\ months=\dfrac{9}{12}\ year$

$9\ months=0.75\ year$

Putting P=1290, r=4 and t=0.75 in (i), we get

$I=\dfrac{1290\times 4\times 0.75}{100}$

$I=\dfrac{3870}{100}$

$I=38.70$

So, the simple interest is $38.70.

Total savings is

$1290+38.70=1328.70$

Therefore, the total amount in the account altogether is $1328.70.

Find the derivative.

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Using either method, we obtain: $t^\frac{3}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

a) By evaluating the integral:

$\frac{d}{dt} \int\limits^t_0 {\sqrt[8]{u^3} } \, du$

The integral itself can be evaluated by writing the root and exponent of the variable u as: $\sqrt[8]{u^3} =u^{\frac{3}{8}$

Then, an antiderivative of this is: $\frac{8}{11} u^\frac{3+8}{8} =\frac{8}{11} u^\frac{11}{8}$

which evaluated between the limits of integration gives:

$\frac{8}{11} t^\frac{11}{8}-\frac{8}{11} 0^\frac{11}{8}=\frac{8}{11} t^\frac{11}{8}$

and now the derivative of this expression with respect to "t" is:

$\frac{d}{dt} (\frac{8}{11} t^\frac{11}{8})=\frac{8}{11}\,*\,\frac{11}{8}\,t^\frac{3}{8}=t^\frac{3}{8}$

b) by differentiating the integral directly: We use Part 1 of the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus which states:

"If f is continuous on [a,b] then

$g(x)=\int\limits^x_a {f(t)} \, dt$

is continuous on [a,b], differentiable on (a,b) and $g'(x)=f(x)$

Since this this function $u^{\frac{3}{8}$ is continuous starting at zero, and differentiable on values larger than zero, then we can apply the theorem. That means:

$\frac{d}{dt} \int\limits^t_0 {u^\frac{3}{8} } } \, du=t^\frac{3}{8}$

Rick Mendez bought stock for $5,000, using $2,500 of his own money and $2,500 borrowed from the broker. One month later, the sto

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

It is 6%

Explanation:

The stock that is bought by Rick Mendez: 5,000

Own money used to buy: 2,500

Borrowed money: 2,500

Interest on borrowed money : 30

Brokerage commissions: 300

The stock is sold after one month: 5,650

Now first calculate the net profit = Selling price of stock – cost price of stock – Interest on borrowing – commission

5,650-5,000-30-300=320

Now calculate the rate of return = Net profit / cost of stock

320/5,000=.06

.06 or 6%
