Oscar has received a $4,000 gift and is looking for a bank to start a savings account. Which option

Mathematics

kirza4 [7]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The best option for him would be a real interest rate of 5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The nominal interest rate is the one that represents the percentage of increase of the money that is in a certain investment, without discounting the depreciation due to inflation or the payment of taxes.

On the other hand, the real interest rate is the one that represents the real increase in the money invested, after discounting inflation and any taxes to be paid.

Therefore, the best option for Oscar would be to invest his $ 4,000 in a savings account with a real interest rate of 5% per year.

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

P(t) = 27000 * (1/9)^(t/4)

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can me modelled with an exponencial formula:

P = Po * (1+r)^t

Where P is the final value, Po is the inicial value, r is the rate and t is the amount of time.

In this problem, we have that the inicial population/value is 27000, the rate is -8/9 (negative because the population decays), and the time t is in months, so as the rate is for every 4 months, we use the value (t/4) in the exponencial.

So, our function will be:

P(t) = 27000 * (1-8/9)^(t/4)

P(t) = 27000 * (1/9)^(t/4)

Functions f(x) and g(x) are shown: f(x) = x2 g(x) = x2 − 8x + 16 In which direction and by how many units should f(x) be shifted
denis23 [38]

Answer:

Shift right by 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given f(x)=x^2

g(x)= x^2-8x+16

Using

Horizontal Shift theorem dealing with the question

If the graph were to be move to to the right, we must use of graph f (x-L)

Where L= 4 and

NOTE:

POSITIVE L MAKES GRAPH SHIFT RIGHT

2) NEGATIVE MAKES GRAPH SHIFT LEFT

g(x)= x^2-8x+16

If we factorize this we have

(x-4)(x-4)

Since the two terms are the same we have (x-4)^2

Then it can move by factor of 4 to the right since constant 4 can be substracted from the parents function

Consider the graphs of f (x) = StartAbsoluteValue x EndAbsoluteValue + 1 and g (x) = StartFraction 1 Over x cubed EndFraction. T
Westkost [7]

Answer:

We have the functions:

f(x) = IxI + 1

g(x) = 1/x^3.

Now, we know that the composite functions do not permute.

How we can prove this?

First, two composite functions are commutative if:

f(g(x)) = g(f(x))

Well, you could use brute force (just replace the values and see if the composite functions are commutative or not)

But i will use a more elegant way.

We can notice two things:

g(x) has a discontinuity at x = 0.

so:

f(g(x)) = I 1/x^3 I + 1

still has a discontinuty at x = 0, but:

g(f(x)) = 1/( IxI + 1)^3

here the denominator is IxI + 1, is never equal to zero.

So now we do not have a discontinuity.

Then the composite functions can not be commutative.

Beef = 96

Chicken = 8 * 8 (cause 25 * 8 = 200)

Chicken = 64

Pasta = 5 * 8 (cause 25 * 8 = 200)

Pasta = 40

Answer- C] There are 32 more students who want beef meal more than want a chicken meal
