Answer:

The current price of the unit trust =  £13,831.72

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it increased 7% per annum in last three years and decreased by 3% per annum before that, it implies that the unit trust decreased by 3% per annum for the first 2 years and then increased by 7% per annum for the next 3 years in the total 5 year period

The invested after 2 years = 12,000*(1-0.03)^2 = £11,290.8

This amount then grows by 7% for the next 3 years making it = 11,290.80*(1+0.07)^3 =  £13,831.7155 = £13,831.72 (Rounded to 2 decimals)

The current price of the unit trust =  £13,831.72 (Rounded to 2 decimals)

A cone is cut out of the center of a pyramid with a rectangular base. The rectangular base has side lengths of 15 and 10 units.
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

Volume of shaded portion = (600 - 36π) units³

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the shaded portion = Volume of pyramid - Volume of cone

Volume of pyramid = ⅓*l*w*h

Where,

l = length of base of pyramid = 15 units

w = width of base of pyramid = 10 units

h = height of pyramid = 12 units

Plug in the values to find the volume of the pyramid

Volume of pyramid = ⅓*15*10*12 = 5*10*12 = 600 units³

Volume of Cone = ⅓πr²h,

Where,

r = radius = ½ of diameter = ½ of 9 = 3 units

h = height = 12 units

Volume of Cone = ⅓*π*3²*12 = ⅓*π*9*12

= π*3*12 = 36π units³

Volume of shaded portion = (600 - 36π) units³

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

1) He should have found the average of the number of rock songs by averaging 4 and 6 to get 5.

2) He did not multiply the numerator and denominator by the correct number to equal 1,500.

5) He should have multiplied the numerator and denominator by 75, not 30,  because 20 x 75 = 1,500.

A taxi cab charges $0.55 per mile in addition to a $1.75 flat rate fee. Susie has $10 to spend on a taxi cab ride. The taxi driv
Olenka [21]
The taxi driver doesn't give anyone a ride unless it's 2 miles away, as such you need to add at least $0.55x2 in addition to the $1.75 at the start
1.75+(0.55x2)=2.85
As Susie only has 10 dollars to spend, she can't exceed that. So Susie must spend more than $2.85(minimum from the taxi) and less than $10(her money)
so,
$2.85<Susie<$10
