If you had a nickel (.05 or five cents) that earned 100 percent interest each day or doubled in value each day. How much would you have after 10 days?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the initial amount of nickel is doubling in value each day, it means that the amount of nickel is increasing in geometric progression. The formula for determining the nth term of a geometric sequence is expressed as

Tn = ar^(n - 1)

Where

n represents the common ratio

a represents the first term of the sequence (initial amount)

n represents number of terms in the sequence (days)

r represents common ratio between consecutive terms(days)

From the information given,

r = 2

n = 10

a = 0.05

Therefore, for 10days, T10

T10 = 0.05 × 2^(10 - 1)

T10 = 0.05 × 2^9

T10 = 25.6

Answer 2

Answer:

Having a nickel doubled for 10 days gives 512 nickels, or 2560 cents.

Step-by-step explanation:

Having a nickel doubled in value each day for 10 days, we first write the amount of nickels we have in the first few days, inspect what pattern these numbers take, write a general formula for the sequence formed, and use the formula to find the 10th number easily.

For the first five days we have:

Day1: 1

Day2: 1 + 1 = 2

Day 3: 2 + 2 = 4

Day 4: 4 + 4 = 8

Day 5: = 8 + 8 = 16

...

This is a geometric progression, where the first term is 1, and the common ratio is 2.

The nth term is given as

Tn = ar^(n - 1)

Tn = 1 × 2^(n - 1)

= 2^(n - 1)

That is

Day n = 2^(n - 1)

Day 10 = 2^(10 - 1) = 2^9 = 512 nickels.

But because 1 nickels = 5 cents

512 nickels = 5 × 512 = 2560 cents.

What is the complement to randomly choosing an R?

Answers

Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there is only 1 letter R in 6 options it is 1/6 (im not entirely sure)

Answer:   5/6

The complement of an event is basically the complete opposite.

If you define event A to be the event of selecting an R, then the complement of event A is not selecting R.

The probability of selecting R is 1/6 because there is 1 letter R out of 6 letters total. The complement of this is 5/6. You could count out 5 letters that aren't R, out of 6 total, or you can subtract 1/6 from 1 to get

When does the ball reach its maximum height? What is the maximum height of the ball? How much time will pass in seconds from the start of the shot to the ball hitting the floor? Answer all three questions to receive full credit.

Answers

Answer:

i) The maximum height  of the ball 'x' = 1.5 seconds

ii)   The maximum height  = 42

 Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given h(x) = - 16 x² + 48 x +6   ...(i)

Differentiating equation (i) with respective to 'x'

[tex]h ^{l} (x) = - 16 (2 x) +48 (1)[/tex]   ...(ii)

Equating Zero

- 3 2 x + 4 8 = 0

- 32 x = - 48

    x = 1.5

step(ii):-

The maximum height of the ball 'x' = 1.5

Again Differentiating equation (ii) with respective to 'x'

[tex]h ^{ll} (x) = - 16 (2 x) < 0[/tex]

The maximum height 'x' = 1.5

h(x) = - 16 x² + 48 x +6  

h(1.5) = - 16 (1.5)² +4 8 (1.5) +6

         =   42

The maximum height at x = 1.5 is  = 42

Final answer:-

i) The maximum height  of the ball 'x' = 1.5 seconds

ii)   The maximum height  = 42

Solve for:

Total value of his investment.

Step 1: Define the formula to calculate the total value of Lachlan's investment

Total value = Principal x (1 + rate/2)^(Year x 2)

(the rate is divided by 2 and the year is multiplied by 2 because this is compounded semi-annual, not compounded annual)

Step 2: Perform the calculation:

With Principal = 4300$, Rate = 4.6% =4.6/100 = 0.046, Year = 5

=> Total value = 4300 x (1 + 0.046/2)^(5 x 2) ≈ 5397.9$

The area of a triangle is 17.5 square meters. The height of the triangle is 3 meters less than twice its base. The base of the triangle is x meters. Complete the equation that represents this description and fill in the values for the base and height of the triangle. The equation modeling the described triangle is x2 + x + = 0. The base of the triangle is meters. The height of the triangle is meters.

Answers

Answer:

A = ½ * base * height

A = ½ * x * (2x-3)

17.5 = ½ * (2x² - 3x)

35 = 2x² - 3x

0 = 2x² - 3x - 35

2x² - 3x - 35 = 0 .......... (the equation)

(2x + 7)(x - 5) = 0

2x + 7 = 0

2x = - 7

x = -7/2 = -3.5

x-5 = 0

x = 5

since we have two result of x, then we can choose the positive one x = 5

so the base is 5 m and the height is

h = (2x - 3) = 2*5 - 3 = 10-3 = 7 m

Help geometry what I m jlf

Answer:

[tex]\angle\,JLF = 114^o[/tex]  which agrees with option"B" of the possible answers listed

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that in order to solve this problem  (find angle JLF) , we need to find the value of the angle defined by JLG and subtract it from [tex]180^o[/tex], since they are supplementary angles. So we focus on such, and start by drawing the radii that connects the center of the circle (point "O") to points G and H, in order to observe the central angles that are given to us as [tex]90^o[/tex] and [tex]138^o[/tex]. (see attached image)

We put our efforts into solving the right angle triangle denoted with green borders.

Notice as well, that the triangle JOH that is formed with the two radii and the segment that joins point J to point G, is an isosceles triangle, and therefore the two angles opposite to these equal radius sides, must be equal. We see that angle JOH can be calculated by : [tex]360^o-90^o-138^o=132^o[/tex]

Therefore, the two equal acute angles in the triangle JOH should add to:

[tex]180^o-132^o=48^o[/tex] resulting then in each small acute angle of measure [tex]24^o[/tex].

Now referring to the green sided right angle triangle we can find find angle JLG, using: [tex]180^o-24^o-90^o=66^o[/tex]

Finally, the requested measure of angle JLF is obtained via: [tex]180^o-66^o=114^o[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

the second number line in the second row OR The number line D in the attached image

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets start solving the question.

(For ease of understanding each line i have labeled them please see the attachment to relate my explanation)

first read the question it i mentioned that which number line currently shows 0.8+0.3.

After reading the question it is clear that which ever line will represent it will be the addition of 08.+0.3.

here please take a note that we are dealing with a number line hence the sign also matters.

Now lets start analyzing lines one by one.To make it easy i have attached an image where i have labeled the lines as A,B,C,D,E,and F for the ease  of understanding.

so take the first line A into consideration,

its starting from 0.3 and ending at 0 means its decrementing you can also determine it with the direction. any line that originates from the origin and goes to the right shows increment and addition and the lines that originates from origin and goes to the left shows decrement.

so here we can easily all those lines which are showing a leftward directions as it is decrementing and we want a line that increments 0.8+0.3

so now th lines A,B,F and H can be skipped.

We are done with analyzing line A, line B is skipped and now lets start with C.

here the line start from 0 and ends at 0.8 so it cant be the line as 0.8+0.3 yields 0.11.

so line C can't be the correct one.

Now lets consider the next line that is D.

here it starts at 0.8 and ends at 0.11 means exactly showing an increment of 0.3 also its showing a positive directions as its heading to the right.

so this is the line that correctly shows 0.8+0.3.

Now consider line E it cant be the correct line as its showing only 0 to 0.8.

and now the line that will confuse you is line G.

it starts at 0.3 and ends at 0.11 here there is increment of 0.8 though it seems like correct but it cant be the line showing 0.8+0.3 as we have to select the line that originates at 0.8 and shows an increment of 0.3 and not the one which originates at 0.3 and ends at 0.11 showing an increment of 0.8.

Also the question itself is asking 'LINE' and not 'LINES' so you can take such minute things also into Consideration for avoiding any kind of confusion.

I hope this will help  you.
