Consider the two savings plans below. Compare the balances in each year after 14 years. Which person deposited more money in the plan? Which of the two investment strategies is better?

Yolanda deposits $250 per month in an account with an APR of 4%, while Zach deposits $3000 at the end of each year in an account with an APR of 4%

Answers

Answer 1

The balance in Yolanda's saving plan after 14 years is; $9,455.36

How to calculate future value?

We want to find the balance in Yolanda's saving plan after 14 years.

For Yolanda;

PV = 0

PMT = 250

i% = 4%/12 = 0.33%

N = 14 yrs * 12 = 168

FV = ?

For Zach:

PV = 0

PMT = $3300

i% = 4%

N = 14 yrs

FV = ?

From online future value calculator, we have;

Yolanda FV = $9,455.36

Zach FV = $47,204.19

Find the parametric equation of the line that passes through P(1, 0, −3) and is parallel to the line with parametric equations x = −1 + 2t , y = 2−t, and z = 3+3t.

Which is the equation for y?

Answers

Answer:

y = -t

Step-by-step explanation:

Parametric Equation = Type of equation that employs an independent variable called a parameter (often denoted by t) and in which dependent variables are defined as continuous functions of the parameter and are not dependent on another existing variable.

parametric equation of line passing through a point (a₁, b₁, c₁)

   and parallel to a vector <a, b, c> is given by :

   x =a₁ + at ,   y = b₁ + bt   ,   z = c₁ + ct

now according to question:

given -

point, P(1, 0, -3)

line,   x = −1 + 2t , y = 2−t, and z = 3+3t.

so from the line the vector is=  <2, -1, 3>

What is the range of this function? all real numbers such that y ≤ 40 all real numbers such that y ≥ 0 all real numbers such that 0 ≤ y ≤ 40 all real numbers such that 37.75 ≤ y ≤ 40

What is inequality?

The relation between two expressions that are not equal, employing a sign such as ≠ ‘not equal to’, > ‘greater than, or < ‘less than.

Raj’s bathtub is clogged and is draining at a rate of 1.5 gallons of water per minute.

The amount of water remaining in the bathtub = y

The function of  time in minutes, that it has been draining = x

At 0 minutes the amount of water is 40 gallons.

The highest volume of water is 40 which is decreasing at the rate of 1.5 gallons per minute.

The given function is a linear function  

y = 0

However, the volume of water can be 0 but cannot ever be negative.

Therefore the range of y will be all real numbers such that 0≤y≤40

Check the forward differences of the sequence.

• first-order differences

5 - 1 = 4

12 - 5 = 7

22 - 12 = 10

35 - 22 = 13

• second-order differences (i.e. differences of the first differences)

7 - 4 = 3

10 - 7 = 3

13 - 10 = 3

The second differences are all 3 (as far as we know), so the sequence of first differences is arithmetic/linear, which means the original sequence is quadratic. Let the [tex]n[/tex]-th term be

Answers

The probability you will draw a blue marble on your first draw and then draw a blue marble on your second draw is 0.063.

What is probability?

It is defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes, in other words, the probability is the number that shows the happening of the event.

Total marbles = 20

Number of blue marbles = 5

P(blue) = 5/20

P(blue∩blue) = P(blue)×P(blue)

= (5/20)(5/20)

= 25/400

= 1/16

= 0.0625 ≈ 0.063

Thus, the probability you will draw a blue marble on your first draw and then draw a blue marble on your second draw is 0.063.

The range, standard deviation, and variance of the numbers of medals won by these countries are 28, 8.845, and 78.2353, respectively.

What is a Range?

A range is given to a parameter to allow maximum leverage to the parameter. for example, if a vendor wants a rod of diameter 20 cm, then he may give a range of ±1 cm., which means he will accept the rod of 19(20-1) cm to 21(20+1) cm.

The range  of the numbers of medals won by these countries is,

Range =  Max - Min = 29 - 1 = 28

To find the standard deviation we need to know the following details,

Sum of the number of medals = ∑x = 234Sum of the square of the number of medals = ∑x² = 4372Number of observations = n = 18

Now, the standard deviation of medals won by these countries is,

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\dfrac{\sum x^2 - \frac1n (\sum x)^2}{n-1}}\\\\\sigma = \sqrt{\dfrac{\4372 - \frac{234^2}{18}}{18-1}}\\\\\sigma = 8.845[/tex]

The variance of the numbers of medals won by these countries is,

v = σ²

v = 78.2353

Answers

the end behavior is:

What is the end behavior of the function?

If we have a polynomial of even degree, then the end behavior in both ends is the same one.

Particularly, in these cases (even degree) we only need to look at the leading coefficient. If it is positive, then as x tends to infinity and negative infinity, the function tends to infinity.

In this case, the polynomial is:

y = 9x⁴ + 8x - 2

Therefore, an inequality relating 100n and n³ will be 100n ≥ n³ for n ≤ 10 and 100n ≤ n³ for n ≥ 10.

Induction hypothesis:

Suppose 100n ≤ k³ for some positive integer k ≥ 10.

We need to show that 100( k + 1 ) ≤ ( k + 1 )³ = k³ + 3k² +3k + 1.

Note 100( k + 1 ) = 100k + 100 ≤ k³ + 100

                                                 ≤ k³ + 3k²    (∵ k ≥ 10 )

                                                 ≤ k³ + 3k² + 3k

                                                 ≤ k³ + 3k²+3k + 1

So 100( k + 1 ) ≤ ( k + 1 )³, which is true.

Hence by the principle of mathematical induction, 100n ≤ k³ for every integer  k ≥ 10.

Answers

Using the Factor Theorem, the polynomials are given as follows:

1. [tex]P(x) = x^5 + 2x^4 - 7x^3 + x^2[/tex]

2. [tex]P(x) = 0.8(x^4 - 4x^3 - 16x^2 + 64x)[/tex]

3. P(x) = -0.1(x³ - 4x² - 3x + 18)

What is the Factor Theorem?

The Factor Theorem states that a polynomial function with roots [tex]x_1, x_2, \codts, x_n[/tex] is given by:

[tex]f(x) = a(x - x_1)(x - x_2) \cdots (x - x_n)[/tex]

In which a is the leading coefficient.

Item a:

The parameters are:

[tex]a = 1, x_1 = x_2 = 1, x_3 = x_4 = 0, x_5 = -4[/tex]

Hence the equation is:

P(x) = (x - 1)²x²(x + 4)

P(x) = (x² - 2x + 1)(x + 4)x²

P(x) = (x³ + 2x² - 7x + 1)x²

[tex]P(x) = x^5 + 2x^4 - 7x^3 + x^2[/tex]

Item b:

The roots are:

[tex]x_1 = x_2 = 4, x_3 = 0, x_4 = -4[/tex]

Hence:

P(x) = a(x - 4)²x(x + 4)

P(x) = a(x² - 16)x(x - 4)

P(x) = a(x³ - 16x)(x - 4)

[tex]P(x) = a(x^4 - 4x^3 - 16x^2 + 64x)[/tex]

It passes through the point x = 5, P(x) = 36, hence:

45a = 36.

a = 4/5

a = 0.8

Hence:

[tex]P(x) = 0.8(x^4 - 4x^3 - 16x^2 + 64x)[/tex]

Item 3:

The roots are:

[tex]x_1 = x_2 = 3, x_3 = -2[/tex]

Hence:

P(x) = a(x - 3)²(x + 2)

P(x) = a(x² - 6x + 9)(x + 2)

P(x) = a(x³ - 4x² - 3x + 18)

For the y-intercept, x = 0, y = -1.8, hence:

18a = -1.8 -> a = -0.1

Thus the function is:

P(x) = -0.1(x³ - 4x² - 3x + 18)
