Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Investment P = $20000
Time t = 7 years
Interest rate r = 5.5% = 0.055

a. compounded semiannually, n = 2

$A = P*(1 + r/n)^{nt} = 20000(1+0.055/2)^{2*7} = 29239.88$

b. compounded quarterly, n = 4

$A = P*(1 + r/n)^{nt} = 20000(1+0.055/4)^{4*7} = 29315.30$

c. compounded monthly, n = 12

$A = P*(1 + r/n)^{nt} = 20000(1+0.055/12)^{12*7} = 29366.44$

d. compounded continuously

$A = Pe^{rt}=20000*e^{0.055*7}=29392.29$

Round off the following numbers to two decimal places 1.2.1) 0,77677 1.2.2) 34,2784682

andre [41]

1) 0.78
2) 34.28
This is because the number in the 3rd decimal place for both numbers is 5 or above so it is rounded up rather than down.

The area of a triangle is 32

Serhud [2]

We have the formula A = (h x b) / 2, where A is the area of the triangle, h is the height of the triangle, b is the base of the triangle;
So, 32 =(8 x b) / 2;
Then, 64 = 8 x b;
b = 64 ÷ 8;
b = 8 inches;

The amount A of the radioactive element radium in a sample decays at a rate proportional to the amount of radium present. Given

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

a) $\frac{dm}{dt} = -k\cdot m$ , b) $m(t) = m_{o}\cdot e^{-\frac{t}{\tau} }$ , c) $m(t) = 10\cdot e^{-\frac{t}{2438.155} }$ , d) $m(300) \approx 8.842\,g$

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Let assume an initial mass m decaying at a constant rate k throughout time, the differential equation is:

$\frac{dm}{dt} = -k\cdot m$

b) The general solution is found after separating variables and integrating each sides:

$m(t) = m_{o}\cdot e^{-\frac{t}{\tau} }$

Where $\tau$ is the time constant and $k = \frac{1}{\tau}$

c) The time constant is:

$\tau = \frac{1690\,yr}{\ln 2}$

$\tau = 2438.155\,yr$

The particular solution of the differential equation is:

$m(t) = 10\cdot e^{-\frac{t}{2438.155} }$

d) The amount of radium after 300 years is:

$m(300) \approx 8.842\,g$

What’s the median of this data set ?

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The median is the middle number of a sorted set from least to greatest. After sorting the set 61, 48, 52, 65, 56, 77, 54 the set is 48, 52, 54, 56, 61, 65, 77.

The middle number in this set is 56 so the median is 56
