the desire accumulated amounts is $140,000 after 2 years invested in an account with 8% interest compounded quarterly.

the amount to be invested now, or the present value needed is?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The amount to be invested now or the present value is $119,484.51

Step-by-step explanation:

FV=PV(1+r/n)^nt

Make PV the subject of the formula

PV=FV/(1+r/n)^nt

Where,

PV=present value=?

FV=future value=$140,000

r=interest rate=8%

n=number of periods=4

t=time=2 years

PV=FV / (1+r/n)^nt

=140,000 / (1+0.08/4)^4*2

=140,000 / (1+0.02)^8

=140,000 / (1.02)^8

=140,000 / 1.1717

=119,484.5096

Approximately 119,484.51

PV=$119,484.51

The amount to be invested now or the present value is $119,484.51

Step-by-step explanation:

The line intercepts the y-axis at y=4. It has a "rise" of 1 unit for each "run" of 3 units, so its slope is rise/run = 1/3.

The slope-intercept form of the equation of a line is ...

  y = mx + b . . . . . where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

A 1 km long train is travelling at 30km/h. If the train enters a tunnel that is 1 km long, how much time will it take for the train to clear the tunnel?

Answers

Answer: 240 seconds OR 4 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the train = 1 km

Length of the tunnel = 1 km

Therefore, length of the train + length of the tunnel = (1 + 1) km = 2 km

= 2000 m

Speed of the train = 30 km/hr = 8.333 metres per second

Therefore, time taken by the train to cross the tunnel = 2000 m/ 8.333 m/sec.

= 240 seconds = 4 minutes

The Social Justice Club is going to rent a mammoth barbeque to cook the hot dogs for the hot dog sale After contacting three rental companies in town, you have found out that each
one will deliver and pick up their barbeque. The cost of propane is included in the rental. The rental costs are indicated below.
Rental A: $15/h
Rental B. $5/h + 50
Rental C. $9/h + 20
1. Write an equation that models the rental cost, C, for each company
2 Graph all three models onto the same set of coordinate axis.
3. Which rental company should be chosen if you use the barbeque during lunch (11:05 - 12 30) and keep the barbeque to continue sales during the football game that will end about
4 30? Justify your answer
4. Which rental company should be chosen if your school lunch hours run from 11:05 - 12.30? Justify your answer
5 Which rental company should be chosen if your school returned the barbeque the following day? Justify your answer.​

Answers

Answer:

(A)Cost of Rental A, C= 15x

Cost of Rental B, C=5x+50

Cost of Rental C, C=9x+20

(B)

i. Rental C   ii. Rental A     iii. Rental B

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1

Let x be the number of hours of the barbeque use by the club.

Rental A: $15/h

Cost of Rental A, C= 15hx

Rental B: $5/h + 50

Cost of Rental B, C=5x+50

Rental C: $9/h + 20

Cost of Rental C, C=9x+20

Part 2

The graph of the three models is attached below

Part 3(11.05-4.30)

If the barbecue's usage hour is from 11.05 to 4.30 when the football match ends.

Number of Hours between 11.05am and 4.30pm=4 hours 25 Minutes = 4.42 Hours

Cost of Rental A, C= 15x=15(4.42)=$66.30

Cost of Rental B, C=5x+50 =5(4.42)+50=$72.10

Cost of Rental C, C=9x+20=9(4.42)+20=$59.78

Rental C should be chosen as it offers the lowest cost.

Part 4 (11.05-12.30)

Number of Hours = 12.30 -11.05 =1 hour 25 Minutes = 1.42 Hours

Cost of Rental A, C= 15x=15(1.42)=$21.30 Cost of Rental B, C=5x+50 =5(4.42)+50=$57.10 Cost of Rental C, C=9x+20=9(4.42)+20=$32.78

Rental A should be chosen since it offers the lowest cost.

Part 5

If the barbecue is returned the next day, say after 24 hours

Cost of Rental A, C= 15x=15(24)=$360 Cost of Rental B, C=5x+50 =5(24)+50=$170 Cost of Rental C, C=9x+20=9(24)+20=$236

Rental B should be chosen as it offers the lowest cost.

#1 Billy stacked nine pieces of wood on top of one another. If each piece was 3/4 of a foot tall, how tall was the wood pile? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth of a foot.

#2 look at the photo

please help me as soon as you can it would be greatly appreciated I’m in a hurry.

Answers

Answer:

a. 6.75 ft

b. Exponent on w is w^4

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The best thing here is to work with decimals

each piece was 3/4 foot tall which means each piece is 0.75 ft tall

Now since he staked 9, the height of the wood pile would be 9 * 0.75 = 6.75 ft

b. Firstly let’s evaluate the denominator

That becomes; 2v^-3w^8 * v^4w = 2v^(-3+4)w^(8+1) = 2vw^9

So let’s now divide this by the numerator

Since we are concerned with only the exponent on w, we place w^13 over w^9 = w^(13-9) = w^4

A second sample of the amount of rent paid for one-bedroom apartments of similar size near the University of Washington are: $495, $422, $370, $333, $370, $390. answer the following questions: What is the median price of rent for the University of Oregon? What is the median price of rent for the University of Washington? What is the mean price of rent near the University of Oregon? What is the mean price of rent near the University of Washington? Describe the standard deviation for both Universities.

Answers

Answer:

Oregon:

Median: 467.5

Mean: 451.33

Standard Deviation: 113.6

Washington:

median: 380

Mean: 396.6

Standard deviation: 56.3

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the median, we need to organize the price and select the value that is in the middle position.

To calculate the mean, we need to sum all the values and divide them by the number of values

To calculate the standard deviation, we need to square the distances between every price and the mean, sum it all and divide them by the number of values less 1 and finally calculate the square root.

So, for Oregon, the organized values are:

$295, $345, $460, $475, $538, $595

The median is a value between $460 and $475. it is calculated as:

[tex]\frac{460+475}{2}=467.5[/tex]

The mean is:

[tex]\frac{295+475+345+595+538+460}{6}=451.33[/tex]

The standard deviation is:

[tex]\sqrt{\frac{(295-451.3)^2+(475-451.3)^2+(345-451.3)^2+(595-451.3)^2+(538-451.3)^2+(460-451.3)^2}{6-1}}=113.6[/tex]

At the same way, we can calculate the median, mean, and standard deviation for Washington and get:

median: 380

Mean: 396.6

Standard deviation: 56.3

What is a Circle?

A circle is a closed figure in which the set of all the points in the plane is equidistant from a given point called “center”. Every line that passes through the circle forms the line of reflection symmetry. Also, the circle has rotational symmetry around the center for every angle

The circumference of circle = 2πr

The area of the circle = πr²

where r is the radius of the circle

The standard form of a circle is

( x - h )² + ( y - k )² = r²,

where r is the radius of the circle and (h,k) is the center of the circle.

The equation of circle is ( x - h )² + ( y - k )² = r²

For a unit circle , the radius r = 1

x² + y² = r² be equation (1)

Now , for a unit circle , the terminal side of angle θ is ( cos θ , sin θ )

Given data ,

Let the radius of the circle be represented as r

Now , the value of r = 26 cm

And , area of the circle = πr²

On simplifying , we get

A = π ( 26 )²

A = 676π cm²

Hence , the area of the circle is 676π cm²

solve the following system of linear equations using the elimination method

Answers

Answer:

x=-1, y=2, z=3

Step-by-step explanation:

First at all, you can divide these equations into two group. It is easier to you.

4x-2y+3z=1

3x+y+2z=5

x+3y-4z=-7

3x+y+2z=5

Then, you can simplify these group of equation that you divided.

So, we have to simplify these step by step.

First, we can simplify the first group of equation.

4x-2y+3z=1

3x+y+2z=5

We have to find which variable you want to eliminate. I choose y.

You can multiply the second equation of first group by 2 and eliminate them.

4x-2y+3z=1

6x+2y+4z=10

As the variable of y is same and we can eliminate y by addition.

4x-2y+3z=1

6x+2y+4z=10

become

10x+0+7z=11

10x+7z=11

10x+7z=11 as the third equation.

Next, simplify the second group of equation.

x+3y-4z=-7

3x+y+2z=5

Same way as the previous one. We need to find which variable that you want to eliminate. I choose y.

We need to balance for the first equation x+3y-4z=-7 at least one variable.

We need to multiply this equation by -3 below to get the same value of y to eliminate the above equation.

3x+y+2z=5 (multiply by -3)

-9x-3y-6z=-15

x+3y-4z= -7

-9x-3y-6z= -15

Here we go! Now these group has same value and variable to eliminate.

We can eliminate these equations by addition method.

x+3y-4z= -7

-9x-3y-6z= -15

-8x+0+10z= -22

-8x+10z= -22

Furthermore, we have to combine these equations that we have simplified from the previous groups.

10x+7z=11

-8x+10z= -22

10x+7z=11 and -8x+10z= -22 as a new group.

Finally, it is time to solve these equations!!

10x+7z=11

-8x+10z= -22

First equation of the above group, we can multiply by 10. Like this:

100x+70z=110

Second equation of the above group, we can multiply by 7. Like this:

-56x+70z=-154

So, we can see there are same value from these equation which are +70z and -70z.

Now, we can eliminate this variable by sum these equations.

100x+70z=110

-56x+70z=-154

44x= -44

x= -1

When we get x= -1 , we can use this value to any equation that you want. You can get the same answer as well.

When x= -1,

substitute into 100x+70z=110

100(-1)+70z=110

-100+70z=110

70z=110+100

70z=210

z=3

When z=3 and x= -1, we can substitute into x+3y-4z= -7

-1+3y-4(3)= -7

-1+3y-12= -7

3y=6

y=2

So, the answer is x= -1 , y=2 , z=3
