Emma invested $41,000 in an account paying an interest rate of 2.6% compounded monthly. Assuming no deposits or withdrawals are

kvasek [131]

Answer: it will take 7 years for the value of the account to reach $49,300

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the formula for determining compound interest which is expressed as

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

Where

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

r represents the interest rate.

n represents the periodic interval at which it was compounded.

P represents the principal or initial amount deposited

From the information given,

P = $41000

A = $49300

r = 2.6% = 2.6/100 = 0.026

n = 12 because it was compounded 12 times in a year.

Therefore,

49300 = 41000(1 + 0.026/12)^12 × t

49300/41000 = (1 + 0.0022)^12t

1.2024 = (1.0022)^12t

Taking log of both sides of the equation, it becomes

Log 1.2024 = 12t × log 1.0022

0.08 = 12 × 0.00095 = 0.0114t

t = 0.08/0.0114

t = 7 years

A donut store has 11 different types of donuts. You can only buy a bag of 3 of them, where each donut has to be of a different t

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

$165$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Since repetition isn't allowed, there would be $11$ choices for the first donut, $(11 - 1) = 10$ choices for the second donut, and $(11 - 2) = 9$ choices for the third donut. If the order in which donuts are placed in the bag matters, there would be $11 \times 10 \times 9$ unique ways to choose a bag of these donuts.

In practice, donuts in the bag are mixed, and the ordering of donuts doesn't matter. The same way of counting would then count every possible mix of three donuts type $3 \times 2 \times 1 = 6$ times.

For example, if a bag includes donut of type $x$ , $y$ , and $z$ , the count $11 \times 10 \times 9$ would include the following $3 \times 2 \times 1$ arrangements:

$xyz$ .
$xzy$ .
$yxz$ .
$yzx$ .
$zxy$ .
$zyx$ .

Thus, when the order of donuts in the bag doesn't matter, it would be necessary to divide the count $11 \times 10 \times 9$ by $3 \times 2 \times 1 = 6$ to find the actual number of donut combinations:

$\begin{aligned} \frac{11 \times 10 \times 9}{3 \times 2 \times 1} = 165\end{aligned}$ .

Using combinatorics notations, the answer to this question is the same as the number of ways to choose an unordered set of $3$ objects from a set of $11$ distinct objects:

$\begin{aligned}\begin{pmatrix}11 \\ 3\end{pmatrix} &= \frac{11 !}{(11 - 3)! \times 3 !} \\ &= \frac{11 !}{8 ! \times 3 !} \\ &= \frac{11 \times 10 \times 9}{3 \times 2 \times 1} = 165\end{aligned}$ .

Abigail and her mom are back-to-school shopping at new Navy . Select items are on sale at 43% off their regular price . What is

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

$12.54

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to apply the sale to the original price. In this case, you would have to multiply 22 and 43% to get $9.46. Now, you have to subtract 9.46 from 22 to get 12.54.
