Penny received an unexpected $5,000.00 gift from a distant relative. She invests it in a mutual fund that increases the value of the original investment by 8% each year. In 15 years, Penny hopes to have $40,000 available to make a down payment on a house. How much would she need to invest right now in order to have enough for her down payment in 15 years?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Penny would need to put in ~ $18,181.82

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the equation [tex]A = P(1+rt)[/tex]

Where A = the total

P is equal to the starting amount

r is equal to the rate (percent)

and t is equal to the total time.

We can put in:

A = $40,000

r = 0.08 (8%)

t = 15

[tex]40,000 = P(1 +(0.08* 15))\\40,000 = P(1+1.2)\\40,000 = P(2.2)\\\frac{40,000}{2.2} = P\\ \frac{200,000}{11} = P\\P = $18181.8181818181...[/tex]

Round to the nearest whole cent

P = $18,181.82

Answers

Answer:

(a) y = -3/5 x + 13/5

(b) y = 5/3 x + 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) The slope of the tangent line is dy/dx.  Use implicit differentiation:

x² + y² + 4x + 6y − 21 = 0

2x + 2y dy/dx + 4 + 6 dy/x = 0

2x + 4 + (2y + 6) dy/dx = 0

x + 2 + (y + 3) dy/dx = 0

(y + 3) dy/dx = -(x + 2)

dy/dx = -(x + 2) / (y + 3)

At the point (1, 2), the slope is:

dy/dx = -(1 + 2) / (2 + 3)

dy/dx = -3/5

Using point-slope form of a line:

y − 2 = -3/5 (x − 1)

Simplifying to slope-intercept form:

y − 2 = -3/5 x + 3/5

y = -3/5 x + 13/5

(b) The normal line is perpendicular to the tangent line, so its slope is 5/3.  It also passes through the point (1, 2), so point-slope form of the line is:

y − 2 = 5/3 (x − 1)

Simplifying to slope-intercept form:

y − 2 = 5/3 x − 5/3

y = 5/3 x + 1/3

the rectangle below has an area of x^2-6x-7, square meters and a width of x-7 meters.What expression represents the length of the rectangle?

Answers

Answer:

Length = (x^2-6x-7)m²/ (x-7)m

Step-by-step explanation:

let L =length

let W= width

let A = area of the rectangle.

if A = L × W

making L the subject, divide both side by W

A/W= L×W/W

therefore, L =A/W

L= (x²-6x-7)m²/(x-7)m

Answers

Answer:

The answer is - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line is y = mx + c

where

m is the slope

c is the y intercept

12x + 3y = 15

Express it in the form y = mx + c

3y = -12x + 15

Divide all terms by 3

y = - 4x + 5

From the equation m = - 4

Since the lines are parallel their slope are also the same

So the slope of the parallel line is also - 4

g(x) =2/5(1/10)^-x
g(x) = 2/5(10)^-x

Answers

Answer:

Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: The given function should be [tex]f(x)=\dfrac{2}{5}(10)^x[/tex] instead of [tex]f(x)=(10)^x[/tex].

Consider the given function is  

[tex]f(x)=\dfrac{2}{5}(10)^x[/tex]

We need to find the function which represents a reflection of f(x) across the x-axis.

If a function f(x) is reflected across the x-axis, then the new function is

[tex]g(x)=-f(x)[/tex]

Using this rule, we get

[tex]g(x)=-\dfrac{2}{5}(10)^x[/tex]        [tex][\because f(x)=\dfrac{2}{5}(10)^x][/tex]

Therefore, the correct option is A.

Answers

Answer:

a) [tex]cos(\alpha)=-\frac{3}{5}\\[/tex]

b)  [tex]\sin(\beta)= \frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}[/tex]

c) [tex]\frac{4+3\sqrt{3} }{10}\\[/tex]

d)  [tex]\alpha\approx 53.1^o[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The problem tells us that angle [tex]\alpha[/tex] is in the second quadrant. We know that in that quadrant the cosine is negative.

We can use the Pythagorean identity:

[tex]tan^2(\alpha)+1=sec^2(\alpha)\\(-\frac{4}{3})^2 +1=sec^2(\alpha)\\sec^2(\alpha)=\frac{16}{9} +1\\sec^2(\alpha)=\frac{25}{9} \\sec(\alpha) =+/- \frac{5}{3}\\cos(\alpha)=+/- \frac{3}{5}[/tex]

Where we have used that the secant of an angle is the reciprocal of the cos of the angle.

Since we know that the cosine must be negative because the angle is in the second quadrant, then we take the negative answer:

[tex]cos(\alpha)=-\frac{3}{5}[/tex]

b) This angle is in the first quadrant (where the sine function is positive. They give us the value of the cosine of the angle, so we can use the Pythagorean identity to find the value of the sine of that angle:

[tex]cos (\beta)=\frac{1}{2} \\\\sin^2(\beta)=1-cos^2(\beta)\\sin^2(\beta)=1-\frac{1}{4} \\\\sin^2(\beta)=\frac{3}{4} \\sin(\beta)=+/- \frac{\sqrt{3} }{2} \\sin(\beta)= \frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}[/tex]

where we took the positive value, since we know that the angle is in the first quadrant.

c) We can now find [tex]sin(\alpha -\beta)[/tex] by using the identity:

[tex]sin(\alpha -\beta)=sin(\alpha)\,cos(\beta)-cos(\alpha)\,sin(\beta)\\[/tex]

Notice that we need to find [tex]sin(\alpha)[/tex], which we do via the Pythagorean identity and knowing the value of the cosine found in part a) above:

[tex]sin(\alpha)=\sqrt{1-cos^2(\alpha)} \\sin(\alpha)=\sqrt{1-\frac{9}{25} )} \\sin(\alpha)=\sqrt{\frac{16}{25} )} \\sin(\alpha)=\frac{4}{5}[/tex]

Then:

[tex]sin(\alpha -\beta)=\frac{4}{5}\,\frac{1}{2} -(-\frac{3}{5}) \,\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2} \\sin(\alpha -\beta)=\frac{2}{5}+\frac{3\sqrt{3} }{10}=\frac{4+3\sqrt{3} }{10}[/tex]

d)

Since [tex]sin(\alpha)=\frac{4}{5}[/tex]

then  [tex]\alpha=arcsin(\frac{4}{5} )\approx 53.1^o[/tex]

Please help answer this question Minni has to buy stickers, erasers, and a pencil. She can only spend $4. A sticker costs $0.35, an eraser costs $0.99, and a pencil costs $0.59.

No, because the total will be $4.27 d. No, because the total will be $5.93

Answers

Answer:  A

Since you already have an equation just put in how many stickers and erasers she wants to get: 0.35(2)+0.99(2)+0.59≤4.

Then you multiply: .35(2)=.70. .99(2)=1.98.

Then add: .70+1.98+.59=3.27, so yes she can since 3.27 is less than 4 so the answer is A

Answer:

A. yes, because the total will be $3.27

Step-by-step explanation:

0.35x + 0.99y + 0.59 ≤ 4

0.35(2) + 0.99(2) + 0.59 ≤ 4

0.70 + 1.98 + 0.59 ≤ 4

sample to test positive? Note that the combined sample tests positive if at least one person has the virus.

The probability that the combined sample will test positive is

(Round to three decimal places as needed.)

Answers

Answer:

The probability that the combined sample tests positive  for the virus is 0.083

Since the probability that combined sample test positive for the virus is greater than 0.05, it is not likely for such a combined  sample to test positive.

The probability that the combined sample will test positive is 0.083

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The probability of a randomly selected adult in one country being infected with a certain virus is 0.003.

P = 0.003

number of blood sample size n = 29

The probability mass function of X is as follows;

[tex]P(X=x) = \left[\begin{array}{c}{29}&x\\\end{array}\right] (0.003)^x (1-0.003)^{29-x}[/tex]

Thus; the required probability is;

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P ( X < 1)[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P ( X =0)[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - \left[\begin{array}{c} \dfrac{29!}{0!(29-0)!} \ \ \times 0.003)^0 \times (1-0.003)^{29-0}}\end{array}\right][/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - \left[\begin{array}{c} 1 \times 1 \times ( 0.9166)\end{array}\right][/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - 0.9166[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 0.0834[/tex]

Therefore; the probability that the combined sample tests positive  for the virus is 0.083

Is it unlikely for such a combined  sample to test positive?

P(combined  sample test positive  for the virus ) = 0.0834

Since the probability that combined sample test positive for the virus is greater than 0.05, it is not likely for such a combined  sample to test positive.

The probability of a randomly selected adult in one country being infected with a certain virus is 0.003.

P = 0.003

number of blood sample size n = 29

The probability mass function of X is as follows;

[tex]P(X=x) = \left[\begin{array}{c}{29}&x\\\end{array}\right] (0.003)^x (1-0.003)^{29-x}[/tex]

Thus; the required probability is;

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P ( X < 1)[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P ( X =0)[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - \left[\begin{array}{c} \dfrac{29!}{0!(29-0)!} \ \ \times 0.003)^0 \times (1-0.003)^{29-0}}\end{array}\right][/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - \left[\begin{array}{c} 1 \times 1 \times ( 0.9166)\end{array}\right][/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - 0.9166[/tex]

Create a table of values for the function f(x) = (1/3)^–x

Answers

Answer:

See the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The function given to us is:

f(x) = (1/3)⁻ˣ

We can convert the negative power into positive one by interchanging the numerator and denominator.

f(x) = (3/1)ˣ

f(x) = 3ˣ

Substitute value for x= -3 , -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3

f(-3) = 3⁻³ = 0.037

f(-2) = 3⁻² = 0.111

f(-1) = 3⁻¹ = 0.333

f(0) = 3⁰ = 1

f(1) = 3¹ = 3

f(2) = 3² = 9

f(3) = 3³ = 27

SOMEONE PLS HELP ME!!! The mean of a set of five different positive integers is 15. The median is 18. Find the maximum possible value of the largest of these five integers.

Answers

Answer:

35

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the mean is 15 and the median is 18. In order to solve this problem, we can work backwards. First, image the scenario:

15, 15, 15, 15, 15.

We want the median to be 18, we we can add 3 to the middle number and then subtract three from the first number (in order to keep the mean constant). Thus, we have:

12, 15, 18, 15, 15.

Now, we can subtract and add in order to find the largest number. For instance, we can subtract 11 from 12 and add that 11 to the last number:

1, 15, 18, 15, 26

Next, we can subtract 13 (not 14 because each of the numbers should be different) from the second number and add that to 26:

1, 2, 18, 15, 39.

Finally, the most we an do is to add 4 to the fourth number and subtract 4 from 39 because we want to keep the median 18. Thus:

1, 2, 18, 19, 35.

Each value is distinct.

The largest possible value is 35.

Answer:

35.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the mean of the five different positive integers is 15, you can assume that they all add up to be 5 * 15 = 75. The median is 18, which means that the rest of the four numbers add to be 75 - 18 = 57, with two numbers higher than 18 and two numbers lower.

You want to find the highest possible values for the maximum, you want to have very low minimums (so you can keep the maximum high). Since the question asks for different positive integers, the lowest numbers you can have are 1 and 2. So far, you have 1, 2, and 18 in your data set, so you have 57 - 3 = 54 to work with for your maximum.

You still want the highest value for the largest of the integers, so the fourth number will be 19. That is because that is the lowest you can go that is still higher than the median. Then, in your data set, you will have 1, 2, 18, and 19, which add up to be 40.

Since all five numbers add to be 75, the maximum will be 75 - 40 = 35.

To make sure this is correct, check your work. 1 + 2 + 18 + 19 + 35 = 75. 75 / 5 = 15. The mean is 15. The middle number is 18, so the median is 18. All five are different positive integers.

And there you have it! The maximum possible value of the largest of these five integers is 35.

Hope this helps!
