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 mid-day meal scheme 1/ 10 litre of milk is given to each student of a primary school. If 30 litres of milk are distributed ev
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

300 students

Step-by-step explanation:

To know the number of students, we must divide the total amount of milk spent by the amount spent for each and in this way we will obtain the value we are looking for, like this (both have the same units of L, so there is no problem ):

30 / (1/10) = 300

that is to say that there are a total of 300 students

A)x 1/9
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

Answer should be x^9

Step-by-step explanation:

This equation looks really complicted, but it's actually much easier when you break it down! First, your going to multiply the fraction 3/2 by 6 - since one is a fraction, youre going to find the GCF, or Greatest Common Factor, and reduce it. The GCF in this equation is 2, so we eliminate the two from the fraction (making it just 3) and divide 6 by 2 (getting 3). Thus, we are left with (x^3)^3 -> 3 x 3 = 9. So we are left with x^9. I hope this helps!

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

1. (x +1)(x - 1)

2. (x+5)(x-5)

3. (x+12)(x-12)

4. (x+14)(x-14)

5. (x+5)(x-7)

Step-by-step explanation:

The first 4 expressions can be factored with the difference of squares type of factoring.

For #5, the odd one out is (x+5)(x-7) because it isn't a factor of any of the standard form equations, while the others are
