Tavius wants to invest $2,500. Which option will earn him the best value?

1 answer:

5 0

Tavius would earn his best value if he invests in a three-year certificate of deposit with a nominal interest rate of 4 percent.

Tavius would invest in the option that yields the highest interest. This is the best value. In order to determine which option is the best, the interest rate of each option has to be determined.

Interest rate of the first option

Interest earned = amount invested x time x interest rate

$2500 x 0.03 x 2 = $150

Interest rate of the second option

Interest earned = amount invested x time x interest rate

$2500 x 0.03 x 1 = $75

Interest rate of the third option

Interest earned = amount invested x time x interest rate

$2500 x 0.04 x 3 = $300

Interest rate of the fourth option

FV = P x (1 + r) n

$2500 x (1.03) = $75

The population of a city is 451,400. The population is expected to decrease at a rate of 3.2% each year.

blondinia [14]

Answer:

Find out the what function equation represents the population of the city after t years .

To prove

The population of a city is 451,400. The population is expected to decrease at a rate of 3.2% each year.

This can be represented by exponential decreasing function.

$f(t) = a (1 - r)^{t}$

Where a is the initial value.

r is the rate in decimal form

t is the time.

Here

a = 451,400

3.2 % is written in the decimal form.

$= \frac{3.2}{100}$

= 0.032

Put in the formula

$f(t) = 451400 (1 - 0.032)^{t}$

$f(t) = 451400 (0.968)^{t}$

Therefore the decrease in the population of the city after t years is represented by

$f(t) = 451400 (0.968)^{t}$

A 12-foot ladder is placed four feet from the base of a wall.

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:8sqrt 2 or sqrt 128

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean Theorem. Since the ladder is leaning against the wall, it is the hypotenuse. It is also 4 feet away from the wall so 12^2-4^2=b^2 b^2=128 so b=8sqrt 2 or sqrt 128.
