Tom and Jerry make separate investments at the same time. Tom invests $2000 at an annual interest rate of 2% compounded continuously. Jerry invests $1800 at an annual rate of 2.5% compounded monthly.
a.) Who has the most money after 15 years? Clearly show all work to support your answer.
b.) How long will it take for Tom’s investment to triple in value?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

TOM / 6.02 years

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Tom: 2000(1.02)^15 =  $2,691.74  

Jerry: 1800(1.025)^15 =  $2,606.94

TOM has more money after 15 years...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

6000 = 2000(1.02)^t

3=(1.02)^t

ln(3) = t * ln(1.02)

t = ln(3)/ln(1.2)

t = 6.02 years

Quadrilateral JKLM is rotated - 270° about the origin.
Draw the image of this rotation

Need a visual answer please! Thanks!

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When the quadrilateral JKLM is rotated - 270° about the origin then the image of rotated quadrilateral is shown below.

What is rotation?

"It is a transformation in which the object is rotated about a fixed point. "

For given question,

Quadrilateral JKLM is rotated - 270° about the origin.

This means, quadrilateral JKLM is rotated 270° clockwise about the origin.

We know, if point P(x, y) is rotated 270° clockwise or 90° anticlockwise then  the coordinated of rotated point would be (-y, x).

From figure, the coordinates of the quadrilateral JKLM are:
J = (3, 3)

K = (5, -5)

L = (-3, -7)

M = (3, -3)

After rotating -270° about the origin the coordinates of the quadrilateral would be,

J' = (-3, 3)

K' = (5, 5)

L' = (7, -3)

M' = (3, 3)

And the image of the rotated quadrilateral J'K'L'M' is shown below.

Therefore, when the quadrilateral JKLM is rotated - 270° about the origin then the image of rotated quadrilateral is shown below.

The height of a projectile fired upward is given by the formula
s = v0t − 16t2,
where s is the height in feet,
v0
is the initial velocity, and t is the time in seconds. Find the time for a projectile to reach a height of 96 ft if it has an initial velocity of 128 ft/s. Round to the nearest hundredth of a second.

Answers

Answer:

The projectile will reach a height of 96 feet after about 0.84 seconds as well as after about 7.16 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of a projectile fired upward is given by the formula:

[tex]\displaystyle s = v_{0} t - 16t^2[/tex]

Where s is the height in feet, v₀ is the initial velocity, and t is the time in seconds.

Given a projectile with an initial velocity of 128 ft/s, we want to determine how long it will take the projectile to reach a height of 96 feet.

In other words, given that v₀ = 128, find t such that s = 96.

Substitute:

[tex](96) = (128)t-16t^2[/tex]

This is a quadratic. First, we can divide both sides by -16:

[tex]-6 = -8t+t^2[/tex]

Isolate the equation:

[tex]t^2 - 8t + 6 = 0[/tex]

The equation isn't factorable, so we can consider using the quadratic formula:

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

In this case, a = 1, b = -8, and c = 6. Substitute:

[tex]\displaystyle t = \frac{-(-8)\pm\sqrt{(-8)^2-4(1)(6)}}{2(1)}[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]\displaystyle t = \frac{8\pm\sqrt{40}}{2} = \frac{8\pm 2\sqrt{10}}{2} = 4\pm \sqrt{10}[/tex]

Hence, our two solutions are:

[tex]\displaystyle t = 4+\sqrt{10} \approx 7.16\text{ or } t= 4-\sqrt{10} \approx 0.84[/tex]

So, the projectile will reach a height of 96 feet after about 0.84 seconds as well as after about 7.16 seconds.

Answers

Answer:

Incomplete question, but I gave a primer on the hypergeometric distribution, which is used to solve this question, so just the formula has to be applied to find the desired probabilities.

Step-by-step explanation:

The resistors are chosen without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x successes is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

In which:

x is the number of successes.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

[tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

In this question:

12 resistors, which means that [tex]N = 12[/tex]

3 defective, which means that [tex]k = 3[/tex]

4 are selected, which means that [tex]n = 4[/tex]

To find an specific probability, that is, of x defectives:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,12,4,3) = \frac{C_{3,x}*C_{9,4-x}}{C_{12,4}}[/tex]

if x, y, and z are positive integers and 2^x * 3^y * 5^z = 54,000, what is the value of x + y + z

Answers

Given:

If x, y, and z are positive integers, then

[tex]2^x\times 3^y\times 5^z=54000[/tex]

To find:

The value of [tex]x+y+z[/tex].

Solution:

First we need to find the prime factors of 54000.

[tex]54000=2\times 2\times 2\times 2\times 3\times 3\times 3\times 5\times 5\times 5[/tex]

[tex]54000=2^4\times 3^3\times 5^3[/tex]        ...(i)

We have,

[tex]54000=2^x\times 3^y\times 5^z[/tex]        ...(ii)

On comparing (i) and (ii), we get [tex]x=4,y=3,z=3[/tex].

The sum of [tex]x,y,z[/tex] is:

[tex]x+y+z=4+3+3[/tex]

[tex]x+y+z=10[/tex]

Therefore, the value of [tex]x+y+z[/tex] is 10.

Consider the probability that greater than 26 out of 124 software users will call technical support. Assume the probability that a given software user will call technical support is 97%. Specify whether the normal curve can be used as an approximation to the binomial probability by verifying the necessary conditions.

Answers

Answer:

Since [tex]n(1-p) = 3.72 < 10[/tex], the normal curve cannot be used as an approximation to the binomial probability.

100% probability that greater than 26 out of 124 software users will call technical support.

Step-by-step explanation:

Test if the normal curve can be used as an approximation to the binomial probability by verifying the necessary conditions.

It is needed that:

[tex]np \geq 10[/tex] and [tex]n(1-p) \geq 10[/tex]

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that [tex]\mu = E(X)[/tex], [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}[/tex].

Out of 124 software users

This means that [tex]n = 124[/tex]

Assume the probability that a given software user will call technical support is 97%.

This means that [tex]p = 0.97[/tex]

Conditions:

[tex]np = 124*0.97 = 120.28 \geq 10[/tex]

[tex]n(1-p) = 124*0.03 = 3.72 < 10[/tex]

Since [tex]n(1-p) = 3.72 < 10[/tex], the normal curve cannot be used as an approximation to the binomial probability.

Consider the probability that greater than 26 out of 124 software users will call technical support.

The lowest possible probability of those is 27, so, if it is 0, since it is considerably below the mean, 100% probability of being greater. We have that:

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 27) = C_{124,27}.(0.97)^{27}.(0.03)^{97} = 0[/tex]

1 - 0 = 1

100% probability that greater than 26 out of 124 software users will call technical support.

6. (4 points) (a) The edge of a cube was measured to be 6 cm, with a maximum possible error of 0.5 cm. Use a differential to estimate the maximum possible error in computing the volume of the cube. (b) Using a calculator, find the actual error in measuring volume if the radius was really 6.5 cm instead of 6 cm, and find the actual error if the radius was actually 5.5 cm instead of 6 cm. Compare these errors to the answer you got using differentials.

Answers

Answer:

A)   ± 54 cm^3 ( maximum possible error in volume )

B) i) 58.625 cm^3  ii) 49.625 cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

A) using differential

edge of cube = 6 cm ,  maximum possible error = 0.5 cm

∴ side of cube ( x )= ± 0.5 cm

V = volume of cube

dv /dx = d(x)^3 / dx

∴ dv  = 3x^2 dx ---- ( 1 )

input values into 1

dv = 3(6)^2 * ( ± 0.5 )

    = ± 54 cm^3 ( maximum possible error in volume )

B) Using calculator

actual error in measuring volume when

i) radius = 6.5 cm instead of  6 cm

V1= ( 6.5)^3 = 274.625 ,  V = ( 6)^3 = 216

actual error = 274.625 - 216 = 58.625 cm^3

ii) radius = 5.5cm instead of 6cm

actual error = 49.625 cm^3
