Answer: he should invest $16129 today.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $P represent the initial amount that should be invested today. It means that principal,

P = $P

It would be compounded annually. This means that it would be compounded once in a year. So

n = 1

The rate at which the principal would be compounded is 7.6%. So

r = 7.6/100 = 0.076

The duration of the investment would be 6 years. So

t = 6

The formula for compound interest is

A = P(1+r/n)^nt

A = total amount in the account at the end of t years.

A = 25000

Therefore

25000 = P(1+0.076/1)^1×6

25000 = P(1.076)^6

25000 = 1.55P

P = 25000/1.55

P = $16129

In the city, the dust and between the library and the police station is 3 miles less than twice the distance between the police
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

7 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the distance between the library and police station x. Then, the distance between the police station and fire station would be 3 less than twice x. Twice means multiply by 2 so twice x is 2 * x = 2x and 3 less than means that you subtract 3 so 3 less than 2x is 2x - 3. Now, we know that x = 5 so all we have to do now is substitute x = 5 into 2x - 3, therefore, the answer is 2 * 5 - 3 = 7 miles.

A printer prints 36 photos in 8 minutes. How many minutes does it take to print 45 photos? You can use a ratio table to help you
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

10 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

First off, you want to figure out how many photos it prints in one minute. 36 divided by 8 is 4.5. So you should add 4.5 to 36, which makes 40.5 in 9 minutes. Add another 4.5 and you get 45 which you should add another minute. That gives you 10 minutes.

Another way is to find how many per minute which would again be 4.5. 45 divided by 4.5 is 10. So once again, 10 minutes.
