$16000 for five years at 5% APR compounded semiannually gives an interest of 4481 dollars.

Borrowers are required to pay interest on interest in addition to principal since compound interest accrues and is added to the accrued interest from prior periods.

We know the formula for compound interest compounded semiannually is,

A = P[1 + (r/2)/100]²ⁿ.

Where, A = amount, P = principle, r = rate and n = time in years.

Given,  $16,000 is deposited for five years at 5 % compounded semiannually.

A = 16000[1 + (5/2)/100]²ˣ⁵.

A = 16000[1 + 0.025]¹⁰.

A = 16000[1.025]¹⁰.

A = 16000×1.28.

A = 20481.

So, the interest earned is (20481 - 16000) = 4481 dollars.

Answer + Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x + 1 represents a linear function then the its graph is a line

To draw the line we have to determine two points that lie on that line

If x = 0 → y = 2(0) + 1 = 1 then the point A(0,1) lies on the line

If x = 2 → y = 2(2) + 1 = 5 then the point B(2,5) lies on the line

Now all we have to do is joining the points A and B with a line

The line AB represents our graph

Answer:

Problem 21:

Slope = -3
y-intercept = (0, 7)

Problem 23:

Slope = 1
y-intercept = (0, -2)

Problem 22:

Slope = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
y-intercept = (0, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

In the slope formula, the coefficient of x (the number times x) is the slope. The number added or subtracted from it is the y-intercept.

In problem 21, -3 is the coefficient of x, so thats the slope. 7 is what's being added, so that is the y-intercept.

In problem 23, 1 is the coefficient of x (a singular x is the same as 1, or -1 if the variable is negative), so thats the slope. -2 is what's being subtracted, so that is the y-intercept.

In problem 22, [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] is the coefficient of x, so thats the slope. 1 is what's being added, so that is the y-intercept.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4. Nicole can make 7 quarts of lemonade with 10 cups of sugar.

If 3/4 cup of sugar is used to make 1 quart of lemonade and 10 cups of sugar are available, then you multiply 3 times 10 (when multiplying fractions, you only multiply with the numerator, not the denominator) which will give you 30.

Now, you can write it as 30/4. Using simple division, you find that 30/4 is 7.5 (or 7 and 1/2), and because we're trying to find how many full quarts we can make using 10 cups of sugar, your answer will be 7.

5. Each person will get 0.83 repeating (or 5/6) boxes of raisins.

In this problem, we have 6 people and we have to share 5 boxes of raisins among all of them. We know that each person can't get 1 because there would have to be 6 boxes (1 for each person), so we have a fraction (or decimal, depending on where you're at).

Dividing 5/6, you'll simply get 5/6 because you can't simply this any further, but if you were to write this as a fraction, you'd get 0.83 repeating (over the 3).

6. Each class will receive 30 boxes of cracker jacks.

We know that there are 153 boxes of cracker jacks available, and this needs to then be split among 5 different classes. So, to find the answer, we have to divide 153 by 5. In doing that, we get 30.6, but because we're trying to find the whole number that the classes will receive, as you can't get a fraction of a box (at least, I assume), then each class will get 30 with 3 boxes remaining.

Answer:

Part A)  Option c) 15.27 mm

Part B)   Option b) 12.05 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean is also sometimes called the average

To find the mean, you add up every number in the data set, and you divide that sum by the total number of data points within the set.

A) What is the mean rainfall for the highland storms?

The sum of the data of Highlands storms

= 2*2 + 3*4 + 2*6 + 3*8 + 4*10 + 3*12 + 4*14 + 5*16 + 5*18 + 4*20 + 2*22 + 24 + 2*26 + 2*28 + 30 + 32 = 672

the total number of data = 44

Mean = 672/44 = 15.27 mm

So, the answer is option c) 15.27 mm

B) What is the mean rainfall for the lowland storms?

The sum of the data of Lowland storms

= 3*2 + 5*4 + 3*6 + 3*8 + 5*10 + 7*12 + 6*14 + 4*16 +2*18 + 20 + 2*22 + 24 + 2*28 = 530

the total number of data = 44

Mean = 530/44 = 12.05 mm

So, the answer is option b) 12.05 mm

The new statement becomes "If the dog jumps in the lake, then it can't come in the house".

Legal syllogism is a legitimate concept that deals with the law and how it is applied, specifically a type of argument that uses deductive reasoning to determine whether a given act is legal.

We have a statement:

R → S: If the dog jumps in the lake, then it gets wet.

S > T: If the dog gets wet, then it can’t come in the house.

After applying the law of syllogism to form a new statement:

R→T:

If the dog jumps in the lake, then it can't come in the house.

Thus, the new statement becomes "If the dog jumps in the lake, then it can't come in the house".

Using the normal distribution, it is found that 25.14% of the batteries will last more than 420 hours.

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] is given by:

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

In this problem, we have that the mean and the standard deviation are given, respectively, by:

[tex]\mu = 400, \sigma = 30[/tex].

The proportion of the batteries will last more than 420 hours is one subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 420, hence:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{420 - 400}{30}[/tex]

Z = 0.67

Z = 0.67 has a p-value of 0.7486.

1 - 0.7486 = 0.2514.

The area of the first, second, third, and fourth circles will be 56.72 cm², 36.3 ft², 167.33 m², and 188.6 yd² respectively.

It is the centre of an equidistant point drawn from the centre. The radius of a circle is the distance between the centre and the circumference.

Then the radius and diameter are given below.

[tex]\rm r_1 = 4 \dfrac{1}{4} = \dfrac{17}{4} = 4.25 \ cm\\\\\\r_2 = \dfrac{d}{2} = \dfrac{6\frac{4}{5}}{2} = \dfrac{34}{10} = 3.4 \ ft\\\\\\r_3 = \dfrac{d}{2} = \dfrac{14.6}{2} = 7.3 \ m\\\\\\r_4 = 7\dfrac{3}{4} = \dfrac{31}{4} = 7.75 \ yd[/tex]

Then the area of the circle is given as

Area = π × r²

Then the area of the first circle will be

Area = π × r₁²

Area = 3.14 × 4.25²

Area = 56.72 square cm

Then the area of the second circle will be

Area = π × r₂²

Area = 3.14 × 3.4²

Area = 36.3 square ft

Then the area of the third circle will be

Area = π × r₃²

Area = 3.14 × 7.3²

Area = 167.33 square m

Then the area of the fourth circle will be

Area = π × r₁²

Area = 3.14 × 7.75²

Area = 188.6 square yd

Answer:

original number:  27

reversed number:  72

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the tens place digit = a

Let the units place digit = b

⇒ Original two-digit number = 10a + b

⇒ Reversed two-digit number = 10b + a

If the reversed two-digit number is 9 less than 3 times the original number:

⇒ 10b + a = 3(10a + b) - 9

⇒ 10b + a = 30a + 3b - 9

⇒ 7b = 29a - 9

If the different of the two numbers is 45 (and the reversed number is larger than the original number):

⇒ (10b + a) - (10a + b) = 45

⇒ 10b + a - 10a - b = 45

⇒ 9b -9a= 45

⇒ 9(b - a)= 45

⇒ b - a= 5

⇒ b = 5 + a

Substitute  b = 5 + a  into  7b = 29a - 9  and solve for a:

⇒ 7(5 + a) = 29a - 9

⇒ 35 + 7a = 29a - 9

⇒ 44 = 22a

⇒ a = 2

Finally, substitute the found value of a into  b = 5 + a  and solve for b:

⇒ b = 5 + 2 = 7
