Answer:

B. False

Step-by-step explanation:

According to pythagorean theorem, for this to be a right triangle, the sum of square of the length of the two legs must equal square of the length of the hypotenuse (longest side).

So $(\sqrt{34} )^{2}$ should equal $(\sqrt{18} )^{2}+(\sqrt{18} )^{2}$

We also know that $(\sqrt{a} )^{2}=(\sqrt{a})(\sqrt{a})=a$

Hence, $(\sqrt{18} )^{2}+(\sqrt{18} )^{2}=18+18=36$ , and

$(\sqrt{34} )^{2}=34$

They ARE NOT EQUAL, so the triangle is NOT a right triangle.

Alex invests his money in an account paying 2% interest compounded semiannually. What is the effective annual yield on this acco

Travka [436]

Answer: 2.01%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose Alex invests $1 into the account for one year. The formula is A=P0⋅(1+rk)N⋅k with P0=$1. We know that r=0.02 and k=2 compounding periods per year. Now, N=1 year. Substituting the values we have A=$1⋅(1+0.022)2=$1.0201. Now, to calculate the effective annual yield, we will use the formula rEFF=A−P0P0. rEFF=1.0201−11=0.0201 or 2.01%. When rounded to two decimals, rEFF=2.01%. However, do not include the % in your answer.
