<h2>Weight of column is 555.83 N</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Size of column = 6 inch x 6 inch x 8 ft

Size of column = 0.5 ft x 0.5 ft x 8 ft

Volume of column = 0.5 x 0.5 x 8 = 2 ft³

Specific weight of concrete = 62.4 lb/ft³

Mass = Volume x Specific weight

Mass = 2 x 62.4

Mass = 124.8 lb = 124.8 x 0.454 = 56.66 kg

Weight = 56.66 x 9.81 = 555.83 N

Weight of column is 555.83 N

mixer [17]
To solve this, we are going to use the compound interest formula: A=P(1+ \frac{r}{n} )^{nt}
where
A is the final amount after t years 
P is the initial investment 
r is the interest rate in decimal form 
n is the number of times the interest is compounded per year

For the first 4 years we know that: P=2350, r= \frac{4.2}{100} =0.042, t=4, and since the problem is not specifying how often the interest is communed, we are going to assume it is compounded annually; therefore, n=1. Lest replace those values in our formula:
A=P(1+ \frac{r}{n} )^{nt}
A=2350(1+ \frac{0.042}{1} )^{(1)(4)}
A=2350(1+0.042)^{4}
A=2770.38

Now, for the next 6 years the intial investment will be the final amount from our previous step, so P=2770.38. We also know that: r= \frac{4.9}{100} =0.049, t=6, and n=1. Lets replace those values in our formula one more time:
A=P(1+ \frac{r}{n} )^{nt}
A=2770.38(1+ \frac{0.049}{1})^{(1)(6)
A=2770.38(1+0.049)^6
A=3691.41

We can conclude that Collin will have <span>£3691.41 in his account after 10 years.</span>

ankoles [38]
The correct answer is beginning at 5 ounces, the graph is discontinuous every 5th integer of the domain.

It is a step function; there is not a continuous increase between values.  The shipping level is fixed for each price, then jumps to the next tier.  This will be a discontinuous graph.
