The required values of the compound amount are $56740.76, $56982.05, $57191.25, $57232.60 and $57234.01 respectively.

What is compound interest?

Compound interest is when an amount receives interest on top of it each time interest is paid on the original amount. The main (initial) sum and the interest that has already accrued over the course of prior periods are used to calculate compound interest.

Given, Principal (P) = $42,400

interest rate(r) = 6% per year = 0.06

time(t) = 5 years

The compound amount is given by

[tex]A = P(1+\frac{r}{t} )^{nt}[/tex]

For compounded annually, n=1

[tex]A = 42400(1+0.06)^{1*5}[/tex] = $56740.76

For compounded semi-annually, n=2

[tex]A = 42400(1+\frac{0.06}{2})^{2*5}[/tex] = $56982.05

For compounded monthly, n=12

[tex]A = 42400(1+\frac{0.06}{12})^{12*5}[/tex] = $57191.25

For compounded daily, n=365

[tex]A = 42400(1+\frac{0.06}{365})^{365*5}[/tex] = $57232.60

For compounded continuously,

[tex]A=Pe^{rt} = 42400e^{0.06*5}[/tex] = $57234.01

Hence, these are the required values of the compound amount.

What is a line?

In pure mathematics, a line is an infinitely long object with no dimension, depth, or curvature. Thus, lines ar one-dimensional objects, although they'll exist in 2, three, or higher dimension areas

Main body:

As Line LM cuts the line at C the angle made by both line is 48°

and line NP cuts the line at D , the angle made by line is 132°

we know that to make a line parallel , the sum of angle on one side of the line should be 180°

∠C +∠D = 48° +132°

Answer:56

Step-by-step explanation:20% of 70 is 14 dollars so you have to subtract 70-14=56.

The 4th proportional of the given ratio is 4/3. option C

The range of the data 112, 121, 184, 189, 177, 190 is 78. option A

It follows from the concept of proportions that the ratios can be represented as follows;

21 : 7 = 4 : 3a + 1

21/7 = 4 / (3a + 1)

cross product

21 × (3a + 1) = 4 × 7

63a + 21 = 28

subtract 21 from both sides

63a = 28 - 21

63a = 7

a = 7/63

a = 1/9

So,

3a + 1

= 3(1/9) + 1

= 3/9 + 1

= 1/3 + 1

= 1 ⅓

= 4/3

21 : 7 = 4 : 4/3

Range of the data:

112, 121, 184, 189, 177, 190

Recall, the range of a dataset is the difference between the maximum and minimum data values and hence, we have;

Range = Highest data value - Lowest data value

= 190 - 112

= 78

Therefore, the range of the given set of data is 78.

The equation of the parabola that passes through (0, -5) and has a vertex at (-1, 4) will be y = -9(x + 1)² + 4.

Let the point (h, k) be the vertex of the parabola and a be the leading coefficient.

Then the equation of the parabola will be given as,

y = a(x - h)² + k

The vertex of the parabola is at (-1, 4). Then the equation is given as,

y = a(x + 1)² + 4

The equation passes through (0, -5), then we have

y = a(x + 1)² + 4

-5 = a(0 + 1)² + 4

The values of the expressions are x = √6, y = 2√3 and z = √2

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

[tex]x =\sqrt{12-3\sqrt{7} } - \sqrt{12 + 3\sqrt{7} }[/tex]

[tex]y = \sqrt{7-4\sqrt{3 } } - \sqrt{7 + 4\sqrt{3} }[/tex]

[tex]z = \sqrt{2 + \sqrt{3} } - \sqrt{2 - \sqrt{3} }[/tex]

We have

[tex]x =\sqrt{12-3\sqrt{7} } - \sqrt{12 + 3\sqrt{7} }[/tex]

Take the square of both sides

So, we have

[tex]x^2 =12-3\sqrt{7} + 12 + 3\sqrt{7} - 2(\sqrt{12-3\sqrt{7} } * \sqrt{12 + 3\sqrt{7} })[/tex]

This gives

x² = 12 - 3√7 + 12 + 3√7 - 2√81

Evaluate the roots

So, we have

x² = 12 - 3√7 + 12 + 3√7 - 18

Evaluate the sum and the difference

x² = 6

Take the square roots of both sides

x = √6

Using the same steps above, we have

[tex]y = \sqrt{7-4\sqrt{3 } } - \sqrt{7 + 4\sqrt{3} }[/tex]

Square both sides

So, we have

[tex]y^2 = 7 - 4\sqrt 3 + 7 + 4\sqrt 3 - 2 * \sqrt{7-4\sqrt{3 } } * \sqrt{7 + 4\sqrt{3} }[/tex]

y = 2√3

[tex]z^2 = 2 + \sqrt 3 + 2- \sqrt 3 - 2 * \sqrt{2 + \sqrt{3} } * \sqrt{2 - \sqrt{3} }[/tex]

The equation is 2w + 10 = 26.

The number of weeks the driving class lasts is 8 weeks.

With that,

Terrence signed up for the Safe Venture driving school.

He will spend 10 hours driving with an instructor and will also attend weekly 2-hour classes.

When Terrence completes the 26 total hours of instruction, he will take his driver's test.

We have to determine,

Which equation can you use to find w, the number of weeks the driving class lasts.

According to the question,

He will spend 10 hours driving with an instructor and will also attend weekly 2-hour classes.

Then, The equation of the number of weeks the driving class lasts,

= 2w + 10

When Terrence completes the 26 total hours of instruction, he will take his driver's test.

2w + 10 = 26

He spends 10 hours driving and adding on 2 more classes with a total of 26 hours.

Therefore,

The number of weeks the driving class lasts,

2W + 10 = 26

2W = 26 - 10

2W = 16

W = (16/2)

W = 8

Hence, The number of weeks the driving class lasts is 8 weeks.

The probability that a given class period runs between 50.5 and 51.25 minutes is 15%.

Probability defines the likelihood of occurrence of an event. There are many real-life situations in which we may have to predict the outcome of an event. We may be sure or not sure of the results of an event. In such cases, we say that there is a probability of this event to occur or not occur. Probability generally has great applications in games, in business to make probability-based predictions, and also probability has extensive applications in this new area of artificial intelligence.

The probability of an event can be calculated by probability formula by simply dividing the favorable number of outcomes by the total number of possible outcomes. The value of the probability of an event to happen can lie between 0 and 1 because the favorable number of outcomes can never cross the total number of outcomes. Also, the favorable number of outcomes cannot be negative.

[tex]P(50.5 < = X < = 51.25) =\frac{51.25-50.5}{54-49 } = \frac{0.75}{5} = 0.15[/tex]

P = 0.15 means that the probability is 15%.

Thus, the probability that a given class period runs between 50.5 and 51.25 minutes is 15%.

The required polynomial function is f(x) = (x + i)² which is degree 2 with the zeros x = √2 and x = -i.

We have to determine a polynomial function for each set of zeros:

x = √2, -i

To write a polynomial function with the zeros x = √2 and x = -i, we can start by setting the function equal to zero and substituting in the zeros:

f(√2) = 0

f(-i) = 0

We can then solve for the coefficients by expressing the polynomial function in terms of (x - √2) and (x + i).

For example, we can write:

f(x) = (x - √2)(x + i)q(x)

for some polynomial q(x).

Substituting in the zeros, we get:

f(√2) = (√2 - √2)(√2 + i)q(√2) = 0

f(-i) = (-i - √2)(-i + i)q(-i) = 0

Solving for q(x), we find:

q(x) = (x + i)/(x - √2)

Substituting this back into the original equation, we get:

f(x) = (x - √2)(x + i)(x + i)/(x - √2)

f(x) = (x + i)²

This is a polynomial function of degree 2 with the zeros x = √2 and x = -i.
