Mrs. Powell has $800 invested in stocks and $500 invested in a Certificate of Deposit. The CD has an interest rate twice as grea

t as the stocks. If her annual interest on these two investments is $45, at what rate of interest is the $500 invested?

Let's use the variable "r" to represent the investment rate of the stocks:
2r(500) + r(800) = 45
1000r + 800r = 45
1800r = 45
r = 0.025
2r = 0.05

frozen [14]

Question:

The geometric sequence ai is defined by the formula: a₁ = 8, aᵢ = aᵢ₋₁(-1.5 ).

Find the sum of the first 20 terms in the sequence. Choose 1 answer:

Answer:

The sun of 20 terms of the progress is -10,637.621536256

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Geometric Sequence

a₁ = 8

aᵢ = aᵢ₋₁(-1.5 )

First, the common ratio needs to be calculated.

The common ratio is the ratio of a term to its previous term.

In other words,

Ratio = 2nd term ÷ 1st term or 3rd term ÷ 2nd term, ...... Etc.

We can calculate the common ratio from aᵢ = aᵢ₋₁(-1.5 ) by dividing both sides by aᵢ₋₁. This gives

aᵢ / aᵢ₋₁ = aᵢ₋₁(-1.5 ) / aᵢ₋₁

aᵢ / aᵢ₋₁ = -1.5

So, the common ratio, r = -1.5

Now that we've had the common ratio and first term to be -1.5 and 8 respectively, the sum of 20 terms can then be calculated using the sum of n terms formula.

Sₙ = a(1 - rⁿ)/(1 - r)

We're making use of this formula because r is less than 1

Where n = 20

a = first term = 8

r = -1.5

By substituting these values; we get

S₂₀ = 8(1 - (-1.5)²⁰)/(1 - (-1.5))

S₂₀ = 8(1 - (-1.5)²⁰)/(1 + 1.5))

S₂₀ = 8(1 - (-1.5)²⁰)/(1 + 1.5))

S₂₀ = 8(1 - (3325.25673008

))/(2.5)

S₂₀ = 8(1 - 3325.25673008

)/(2.5)

S₂₀ = 8(-3324.25673008

)/(2.5)

S₂₀ = -10,637.621536256

1. Lisa and Tomas Lopez are buying a new minivan that has a base
Dimas [21]

The question is incomplete:

Lisa and Tomas Lopez are buying a new minivan that has a base price of $22,510.the options total $8,062 and destination charge is $770. The dealer's cost is estimated to be 91% of the base price and 88% of the options.

-What is the sticker price of the vehicle?

-Find the dealer's percent of the base price.

-Find the dealer's percent of the options price.

-What is the estimated dealer's cost?

Answer:

-What is the sticker price of the vehicle? $31,342

-Find the dealer's percent of the base price: $20,484

-Find the dealer's percent of the options price: $7,094

-What is the estimated dealer's cost?  $28,348

Step-by-step explanation:

-The sticker price is the result of adding the base price plus the options plus the destination charge.

Sticker price= base price + options + destination charge

Sticker price= $22,510+$8,062+$770

Sticker price= $31,342

-Dealer's percent of the base price: It is  91% of the base price:

$22,510*91%= $20,484

-Dealer's percent of the options price: It is  88% of the options:

$8,062*88%= $7,094

-Estimated dealer's cost= Percent of base price+percent of options price+destination charge

Estimated dealer's cost= $20,484+$7,094+$770

Estimated dealer's cost=$28,348

Two cones are similar. The surface area of the larger cone is 65π square inches. The surface area of the smaller cone is 41.6π s
devlian [24]

Answer:

8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of a cone (without the base) is given by:

Surface area = pi*r*s

Where r is the base radius and s is the slant height.

The smaller cone has a surface area of 41.6pi in2 and a radius of 6.4 inches, so the slant height is:

41.6pi = pi*r*s

41.6 = 6.4s

s = 6.5 in

If the cones are similar, the radius and the slant height increase in the same proportion, so we have that:

r'/s' = r/s = 6.4/6.5

s' = r'*6.5/6.4

So for the larger cone, we have:

65pi = pi*r'*s'

65 = r'*r'*6.5/6.4

r'^2 = 64

r' = 8 inches
