A particular investment account offers an interest rate of 8% each year. An investor puts $3,500 into the account. For tax purposes, he wants to determine the number of years, t, for which the account will have less than $6,000. Write an inequality to represent this situation, and use it to determine the number of years for which the account will have less than $6,000.

Answers

Answer 1
Can you give me some answr choices please.

Answer 2

Final answer:

The compound interest inequality for the investment account is 3500(1 + 0.08)^t < 6000. Solving this, we find that the account will have less than $6,000 for approximately 6 years.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we will use the formula for compound interest which is [tex]A = P(1 + r)^t,[/tex] where:

A is the future value of the investment/loan, including interestP is the principal investment amount ($3,500 in this case)r is the annual interest rate (decimal)t is the number of years the money is invested or borrowed for

We are trying to find the number of years, t, when the account will have less than $6,000, at an annual interest rate of 8%, i.e., r = 0.08.

The inequality will be:

[tex]3500(1 + 0.08)^t < 6000[/tex]

To solve for t, we first divide both sides by 3,500:

[tex](1 + 0.08)^t[/tex]< ≈ 1.7143

Now, take the natural logarithm of both sides:

[tex]ln((1 + 0.08)^t) < ln( 1.7143)[/tex]

t · ln(1.08) < ln(≈ 1.7143)

Divide both sides by ln(1.08) to isolate t and calculate:

t < ≈ ln(≈ 1.7143) / ln(1.08) < ≈ 6.6

Therefore, the investment account will have less than $6,000 for approximately 6 years.

The correlation coefficient r between the size of a lake in square miles, x, and the yearly number of registered boaters, y, is 0.743. What percent of the variation in the number of yearly boaters can be explained by differences in lake sizes?
74.3%
55.2%
44.8%

Answers

Actually variation is simply equivalent to the square of the correlation coefficient r. So we can say that:

variation = r^2

 

So given an r value of 0.743, so the variation is:

variation = 0.743^2

variation = 0.552

A) 61

Hope this helps!

The value of x is 61 after using the concept of vertically opposite angles option (A) 61 is correct.

What are vertically opposite angles?

It is defined as the angles when two lines intersect each other and at the intersecting point, some pair of angles are formed which we call vertically opposite angles, as the name describes that they have vertically opposite angles.

It is given that:

The angles are shown in the picture.

As we know, from the definition of vertically opposite angles, the angles when two lines intersect each other and at the intersecting point.

The first angle = 2x + 24

The second angle = 146

Equating both the angles:

2x + 24 = 146

2x = 146 - 24

2x = 122

x = 122/2

x = 61

Thus, the value of x is 61 after using the concept of vertically opposite angles option (A) 61 is correct.

Under which condition does a country with a small GDP have a large per capita income?

Answers

the concept here is that if a country has a small population, then the per capita income would be large. by dividing the total income by the total population giving you the per capita income. 

-hope this helps
GDP, or gross domestic product, is  how many goods and services a country or realm produces over an interval, usually a year.

the per capita part, means, the average per person, so you grab the GDP, say 5 trillion, and divide it evenly among all inhabitants, so a per-capita figure is really just GDP/population.

now, you can have a population like Germany with 80 million with a GDP of say hmmm 8000 million for simplification, the per-capita is then 8000/80 or  $100 per person.

now, you could have another population like say Japan, and let's just say is less people... hmmm 20 million, with a GDP of say 4000 million.

then the per-capita in that example for Japan will be 4000/20, which is $200 per-capita, notice, the Japan's example has a higher per-capita, though the GDP is smaller to the example of Germany, that's because the Japanese population is also smaller.

sidenote:  per-capita figures are often very misleading, since economies do not grow that linearly.

A jar contains n nickels and d dimes. There are 20 coins in the jar, and the total value of the coins is $1.40. How many nickels and how many dimes are in the jar?

0.05n + 0.10d = 1.40

0.05d = 0.40
d = 8

solve the system by substitution. -4.5-2y=-12.5 , 3.35x-y=-0.75

Answers

First, we solve for y in the first equation:
[tex]-2y = -12.5 +4.5[/tex]
[tex]-2y=-8[/tex]
[tex]y= \frac{8}{2}[/tex]
[tex]y=4[/tex]
Then, we substitute the y value in the other equation and solve for x:
[tex]3.35x-(4)=-0.75[/tex]
[tex]3.35x=-0.75+4 [/tex]
[tex]3.35x=3.25[/tex]
[tex]x= \frac{3.25}{3.35} [/tex]
[tex]x= \frac{65}{67} [/tex]

so -2y=-12.5+4.5 thus -2y=-8 thus y=4 if y=4 than 3.35x=-.75+4 thus 3.35x=3.25 thus x=3.35/3.25

The students at Campbell High School have been planting trees as part of an ongoing service project. This month, they averaged 15 trees per participant. That is 150% more trees than their average the last time they did it. What was their average last time?

___ trees

Answers

I think its 0 lol, is that possible?

Final answer:

The average number of trees planted by participants last time was 10 trees, calculated by understanding the percentage increase and using basic arithmetic.

Explanation:

The average number of trees planted by participants last time was 10 trees.

To solve this, we know that the current average is 15 trees per participant, which is 150% more than the last average. This means the current average is 250% of the last average. To find the last average, you divide the current average by 2.5 (250%), giving you 6. Then, you calculate 150% of 6, which equals 9. Adding 6 and 9 together gets you 15 trees, the current average, confirming the last average was 10 trees.

Explanation:

Saying "95% confidence interval" means that if we made a simple random

The formula for the surface area of cylinder is:

s = 2 π r h + 2 π r^2

s = (20 / r) + 2 π r^2                         (ANSWER)

How many integers less than 1000 have no factors (other than 1) in common with 1000?

Answers

168 numbers beginning with the
2, 3, 7, 11,13 and ending with the 983, 991 and 997
There are 999 integers less than 1000. Immediately, we can eliminate all of the even numbers among those, since we know they share the factor 2 with 1000. This gets rid of 499 integers, leaving us with 500 odd integers. To make our next elimination, we'll have to take a look at 1000 again.

1000's prime factorization is 2³ · 5³, which means that our final filter on the remaining integers should be to eliminate every integer divisible by 5. Any whole number ending in a 0 or a 5 is divisible by 5, but since we've eliminated all even numbers from our list, we've split the amount of those divisible numbers in half. It may be a bit hard to visualize this elimination, so let's figure out how many integers would get eliminated in a bit of a simpler setting first:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20

Usually we'd be eliminating 4 numbers from this sequence, but in a sequence with all the even numbers eliminated:

1 3 7 9 11 13 15 19

We only eliminate half that amoung, or 2.

Here, we'd usually be eliminating 100 of the numbers from our list of 500 (or 1/5 of the list, since we eliminate a number every 5 integers), but here, we're only eliminating half of that amount, or 50. This leaves us with 500 - 50 = 450 integers with no factors in common with 1000.

Note: We also sometimes refer to numbers with this kind of relationship as coprime or relatively prime.

25% of what number is 9
can you explain how you got your answer and show your answer too.
Thank You

Answers

Keep in mind the the word "percent" translates to "for each 100." 25% can be read as "25 for each 100," which has the fractional representation [tex] \frac{25}{100} [/tex] and the decimal representation 0.25. All of these representations are just different ways of writing the same value.

Note too that the fraction [tex] \frac{25}{100} [/tex] can be reduced to [tex] \frac{1}{4} [/tex], so what the question is really asking is: 1/4 of what number is 9?

Well, if we know that 1/4 of the number is 9, we can easily find how large the whole number is by finding all 4/4 of it (the whole number), or 4 x 9, which multiplies out to 36.
