Divide by 2 and find out.
4/9 / 2
Multiply by its reciprocal:
4/9 * 1/2
Multiply the numerators and denominators together:
4/18
4/18 does not equal 8/18, so 4/9 isn't half of 8/18.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
The x² term will be C(5,2)x²·2³ = 80x².
The coefficient is 80.
_____
C(n, k) = n!/(k!·(n-k)!)
C(5, 2) = 5·4/(2·1) = 10
Answer: 40%
Step-by-step explanation: First determine whether the number increases or decreases. Since the number changes from 100 to 140 it's getting bigger, so it increases.
To find the percent increase, we use the following formula.
The amount of change is the difference between the two numbers which is 40 and we get this by subtracting 100 from 140. The original number will be the number that we started with which is 100.
140/100 simplifies to 0<em>.</em>4.
Finally, we want the percent increase so we write 0<em>.</em>4 as a percent by moving the decimal point 2 places to the right to get 40%.
Therefore, the percent increase is 40%.
Answer: the value of her investment after 4 years is £8934.3
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for determining compound interest 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 invested.
t represents the duration of the investment in years.
From the information given,
P = 8000
r = 2.8% = 2.8/100 = 0.028
n = 1 because it was compounded once in a year.
t = 4 years
Therefore,
A = 8000(1+0.028/1)^1 × 4
A = 8000(1+0.028)^4
A = 8000(1.028)^4
A = £8934.3 to the the nearest penny
