A bank account has a beginning balance of $560.00. After 6 months, the balance in the account has increased to $572.60. What interest rate is being earned annually on this account?

Answer:

We should use C. 1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the children's book dimensions are 20 cm x 24 cm

We need to find a scale factor (which is a number) that will turn the dimensions 20 cm x 24 cm ⇒ 25 cm x 30 cm

We can write :

(20 cm) . a = 25 cm

Where ''a'' is the scale factor.

Solving for a :

[tex](20cm).a=25cm\\a=\frac{25cm}{20cm}=1.25 \\a=1.25[/tex]

This result is reasonable because the scale factor won't have units

A scale factor of 1.25 turns 20 cm ⇒ 25 cm

We can use the another dimension to verify :

(24 cm) . a = 30 cm

(24 cm) . (1.25) = 30 cm

30 cm = 30 cm

The scale factor is option C. 1.25

Answer:

they spend $ 5.88 to buy a gift but there is not enough money left to buy a card of $3.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The earnings form Wednesday of Samuel and Jason are:

   Samuel earnings = 12.5x0.40 = $5

   Jason earnings = 7.1x0.40 = $ 2.84

The combined earnings form Wednesday are:

   Combined earnings = Samuel earnings + Jason earnings

   Combined earnings= $5 + $ 2.84 = $ 7.84

The spended earnings are:

    Spended earnings = combined earnings x ¾

    Spended earnings = 7.84 x ¾ = $ 5.88

The left over is:

    Left over = combined earnings – spended earnings

    Left over = 7.84 – 5.88 = $ 1.96

So, they spend $ 5.88 to buy a gift but there is not enough money left to buy a card of $3.25

The new ratio of Elena’s hair ties to Melanie’s hair ties is 8 : 3.

Given that Elena has 32 hair ties and Melanie has 8 hair ties, let’s analyze the situation:

Initial Ratio:

The ratio of Elena’s hair ties to Melanie’s hair ties is: [ \text{Elena : Melanie} = 32 : 8 = 4 : 1 ]

Melanie Gets 4 More Hair Ties:

After Melanie receives 4 additional hair ties, her total becomes: [ \text{Melanie’s new total} = 8 + 4 = 12 ]

New Ratio:

Now, let’s find the new ratio of Elena’s hair ties to Melanie’s hair ties: [ \text{Elena : Melanie} = 32 : 12 = 8 : 3 ]

Therefore, the new ratio of Elena’s hair ties to Melanie’s hair ties is 8 : 3.

Complete question:

Elena has 32 hair ties. Melanie has 8 hair ties. The ratio of Elena’s hair ties to Melanie’s hair ties is : 1. If, Melanie gets 4 more hair ties, the new ratio of Elena’s hair ties to Melanie’s hair ties is 8 :

To convert from pounds to ounces, multiply the number of pounds by the unit equivalence of 1 pound = 16 ounces.

Conversion from pounds to ounces:

First, find the unit equivalence: 1 pound = 16 ounces.

Next, multiply the number of pounds by the unit equivalence. Thus, 5 pounds x 16 equals 80 ounces.

The set of all real numbers n that are less than -3 can be represented as: [tex]\[ \{ n \mid n < -3 \} \][/tex]

The set of real numbers less than -3 encompasses an infinite range of values extending to the left of -3 on the number line. These numbers are characterized by being smaller than -3, denoted as ( n < -3 ). In interval notation, this set is represented as (-∞, -3), indicating that it includes all real numbers from negative infinity up to, but not including, -3.

This set is unbounded, as there is no limit to how far left the numbers extend, encompassing an infinite continuum of values that are progressively smaller than -3.

Three equivalent fractions for [tex]\( \frac{80}{100} \) are \( \frac{4}{5} \), \( \frac{160}{200} \), and \( \frac{400}{500} \)[/tex].

To find three equivalent fractions for [tex]\( \frac{80}{100} \)[/tex], we can simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor (GCD), which is 20 in this case.

1. Divide both the numerator and denominator by 20:

[tex]\[ \frac{80 \div 20}{100 \div 20} = \frac{4}{5} \][/tex]

So, [tex]\( \frac{80}{100} \)[/tex] is equivalent to [tex]\( \frac{4}{5} \)[/tex].

2. Multiply both the numerator and denominator by the same non-zero integer:

[tex]\[ \frac{80 \times 2}{100 \times 2} = \frac{160}{200} \][/tex]

So, [tex]\( \frac{80}{100} \) is also equivalent to \( \frac{160}{200} \)[/tex].

3. Similarly, we can multiply both the numerator and denominator by another non-zero integer:

[tex]\[ \frac{80 \times 5}{100 \times 5} = \frac{400}{500} \][/tex]

So, [tex]\( \frac{80}{100} \) is also equivalent to \( \frac{400}{500} \)[/tex].

Answer:

[tex]x=\frac{-2\pm \sqrt{(2)^{2}-4(4)(-1)}}{2(4)}[/tex] is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given quadratic equation is 4x²+ 2x - 1 = 0

To find the solution of the equation we use the quadratic formula

[tex]x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

Now we put the values of a = 4, b = 2 and c = (-1)

Therefore, quadratic formula for the equation given will be

[tex]x=\frac{-2\pm \sqrt{(2)^{2}-4(4)(-1)}}{2(4)}[/tex]

The average rate of change of the function f(x)=120(0.1)^x from x=0 to x=2 is calculated as (f(2) - f(0)) / (2 - 0), which gives -59.4.

Average Rate of Change

The average rate of change of a function over an interval is calculated by the difference in function values at the endpoints divided by the difference in input values. For the function f(x) = 120(0.1)^x, we want to find this rate from x = 0 to x = 2. First, we find the function values:

f(0) = 120(0.1)⁰ = 120

f(2) = 120(0.1)² = 120(0.01) = 1.2

Then we use the formula for average rate of change:

Average rate of change = (f(2) - f(0)) / (2 - 0) = (1.2 - 120) / 2 = -118.8 / 2 = -59.4

Therefore, the average rate of change of the function on the interval from x = 0 to x = 2 is -59.4.

The correct answer is that there are 2000 people in the school.

To solve this problem, we can set up a proportion based on the information given. We know that 9% of the school's population is in the band, and the band has 180 members. We want to find the total population of the school, which we will denote as [tex]\( P \)[/tex].

The proportion can be written as:

[tex]\[ \frac{9}{100} = \frac{180}{P} \][/tex]

Now, we can solve for [tex]\( P \)[/tex] by cross-multiplying:

[tex]\[ 9P = 180 \times 100 \][/tex]

Divide both sides by 9 to isolate [tex]\( P \)[/tex]:

[tex]\[ P = \frac{180 \times 100}{9} \][/tex]

Simplify the right side of the equation:

[tex]\[ P = \frac{18000}{9} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ P = 2000 \][/tex]

Therefore, the total population of the school is 2000 people. This matches the correct answer given in the options.

Answer:  The required sum of first terms of the series is [tex]\dfrac{1705}{64}.[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the sum of the first five terms of a geometric series with first term and common ratio as follows :

[tex]a_1=20~~~~~\textup{and}~~~~~r=\dfrac{1}{4}.[/tex]

We know that

the sum of first n terms of a geometric series with first term [tex]a_1[/tex] and common ratio r is given by

[tex]S_n=\dfrac{a(1-r^n)}{1-r}.[/tex]

Therefore, the sum of first 5 terms of the given geometric series is given by

[tex]S_5\\\\\\=\dfrac{a(1-r^5)}{1-r}\\\\\\=\dfrac{20(1-(\frac{1}{4})^5)}{1-\frac{1}{4}}\\\\\\=\dfrac{20\left(1-\frac{1}{1024}\right)}{\frac{3}{4}}\\\\\\=20\times\dfrac{4}{3}\times\dfrac{1023}{1024}\\\\\\=20\times\dfrac{341}{256}\\\\\\=\dfrac{5\times 341}{64}\\\\\\=\dfrac{1705}{64}.[/tex]

Thus, the required sum of first terms of the given geometric series is [tex]\dfrac{1705}{64}.[/tex]

To optimize the dimensions of a rectangle with an area of 32 square cm such that the distance from one corner to the midpoint of a non-adjacent edge is minimized, one must use the Pythagorean theorem and calculus. The minimum distance occurs when the rectangle is a square with sides measuring 4√2 cm.

Assume the rectangle's dimensions are length L and width W, with the given area 32 cm2 such that LW = 32. To minimize the distance (D) from one corner to the midpoint of the non-adjacent edge, we can use the Pythagorean theorem, given by D = √(L2 + (W/2)²).

Since the area is fixed, W can be expressed as 32/L, and we can write D as a function of L. After substituting 32/L for W and differentiating with respect to L, we can find the minimum by setting the derivative equal to zero and solving for L.

The minimum distance is achieved when the rectangle is a square, with length and width both equal to √32, which simplifies to 4√2 cm, which is approximately 5.66 cm for both dimensions.

Answer:

No, the answer is not $ 336

The interest that she will pay is $ 504.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Andrea borrowed 2,240 at 15% apr for 18 months.

We have to calculate  the interest will she pay.

Using formula for Simple interest.

[tex]SI =P\times r\times t[/tex]

Where P is principal amount

r is rate of interest

t is time period.

Given : P = $ 2240

t = 18 months

In years , [tex]\frac{18}{12}[/tex]

r = 15% = 0.15

Substitute, we have,

[tex]SI=2240\cdot0.15\cdot\frac{18}{12}[/tex]

Simplify, we have,

SI = 504

Thus, The interest that she will pay is $ 504.

No, the answer is not $ 336

Andrea will pay $504 in interest on a loan of $2,240 at 15% APR over 18 months, not $336. The calculation involves converting the loan duration into years and applying the formula for simple interest.

To determine how much interest Andrea will pay on a loan of $2,240 at 15% APR for 18 months, we first need to understand that APR (Annual Percentage Rate) is the interest rate for a whole year (annual), rather than just a monthly fee or rate. Since APR is annual but our loan term is in months, we convert the duration into years to match the APR's annual nature. 18 months is equivalent to 1.5 years. Therefore, the interest calculation would be as follows:

Principal (the amount borrowed) = $2,240

Rate (APR) = 15%

Time = 1.5 years

Interest = Principal × Rate × Time

Interest = $2,240 × 15% × 1.5 = $2,240 × 0.15 × 1.5

Interest = $504

Therefore, Andrea will pay $504 in interest, not $336 as presumed. It's essential to accurately convert the time to years when dealing with APR to ensure the calculation is correct.

Answer:

d. 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Replace the x and y values in the equation

(y = 0.5x + 10) to (x = 0.5y + 10)

Now, solve for the y value in the new equation. You'll get y = 2x + 20.

So, the intercept of the inverse function is 20.

The total comes to $37.67, so the closest answer is (b) $37.68.

We will calculate how much Zalia paid for her day at the science museum including admission fees, lunch, and the tax and tip for both of these.

Firstly, let's calculate the total cost of admission for Zalia and her friend:

Admission for one person: $12.50

Admission for two people: $12.50 x 2 = $25.00

Now, let's find the total cost of Zalia's lunch:

Sandwich cost: $5.95

Apple cost: $1.25

Drink cost: $1.69

Total lunch cost before tax and tip: $5.95 + $1.25 + $1.69 = $8.89

Next, we add the tax:

Tax for admission: $25.00 x 7.25% = $1.81

Tax for lunch: $8.89 x 7.25% = $0.64

Total tax: $1.81 + $0.64 = $2.45

Now, we calculate the tip for the lunch:

Tip: $8.89 x 15% = $1.33

Finally, add everything up to get the total amount Zalia paid:

Total cost without tax and tip: $25.00 + $8.89 = $33.89

Total tax and tip: $2.45 + $1.33 = $3.78

Grand total: $33.89 + $3.78 = $37.67

Examining the provided options, we can see that the closest amount to our calculation is $37.68, considering the possibility of a rounding difference in the final tax and tip calculations. Thus, the correct answer is (b) $37.68.
