An amount was invested at % r per quarter. What value of rwill ensure that accumulated amount at the end of one year is 1.5 times more than amount invested? Correct to 2 decimal places

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  42.67%

Step-by-step explanation:

The annual growth factor for interest at annual rate r compounded quarterly is ...

  (1 +r/4)^4

You want that value to be 1.5:

  1.5 = (1 +r/4)^4

  1.5^(1/4) = 1 +r/4

  (1.5^(1/4) -1) = r/4

  4(1.5^(1/4) -1) = r ≈ 0.426728

The rate r must be about 42.67%.

_____

Comment on the wording

We interpreted the problem to mean the end-of-year amount is 1.5 times the beginning-of-year amount. That is, it is "1.5 times the amount invested."

The word "more" is typically used when addition is involved. For example, "25% more" means 25% of the original is added to the original. We occasionally see "more" where "x times more" is intended to mean "x times", rather than "x times the amount, added to the original amount."

Account A and Account B both have a principal of $2,000 and an annual interest rate of 5%. No additional deposits or withdrawals are made. Account A earns simple interest. Account B earns interest compounded annually. Compare the amounts in the two accounts after 20 years. Which earns more interest? How much more?

Answers

Answer:

Which earns more interest = Account B

How much more = $1,306.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Principal P = $2,000

Interest rate r = 5% = 0.05

Time t = 20 years

For account A;

Simple interest = P×r×t

Substituting the values;

Simple interest = 2,000 × 0.05 × 20 = $2000

Interest on account A = $2,000

For account B;

Compound interest

Final amount = P(1 + r)^t

Since it's compounded annually

Substituting the values;

Final amount = 2000(1+0.05)^20

Final amount = $5306.60

Interest = final amount - principal = $5306.60 -$2000

Interest = $3,306.60

Therefore, account B earns more interest.

Difference = account B interest - account A interest

Difference = $3,306.60 - $2,000

Difference = $1,306.60

The article "A Shovel with a perforated blade reduces energy expenditure required for digging wet clay" (Human Factors, 2010:492-502) reported on an experiment in which each of 13 workers was provided with both a conventional shovel and a shovel whose blade was perforated with small holes. The authors of the cited article provided the following data on stable energy expenditure (measured in kilocalories per kg of subject per pounds of clay):

Step-by-step explanation:

Corresponding true average energy expenditure of shovel with conventional blade and true average energy expenditure of shovel with perforated blades form matched pairs.

The data for the test are the differences between the true average energy expenditures of the shovels.

μd = true average energy expenditure of shovel with conventional blade minus true average energy expenditure of shovel with perforated blades.

Sample mean, xd

= (0 + 0.0004 - 0.0001 + 0.0009 - 0.0001 - 0.0001 + 0.0004 + 0 + 0.0002 + 0.0006 - 0.0003 + 0.0007 + 0.0001)/13 = 0.0002077

xd = 0.0002077

Standard deviation = √(summation(x - mean)²/n

n = 13

Summation(x - mean)² = (0 - 0.0002077)^2 + (0.0004 - 0.0002077)^2 + (- 0.0001 - 0.0002077)^2+ (0.0009 - 0.0002077)^2 + (- 0.0001 - 0.0002077)^2 + ( - 0.0001 - 0.0002077)^2 + (0.0004 - 0.0002077)^2 + (0 - 0.0002077)^2 + (0.0002 - 0.0002077)^2 + (0.0006 - 0.0002077)^2 + (- 0.0003 - 0.0002077)^2 + (0.0007 - 0.0002077)^2 + (0.0001 - 0.0002077)^2 = 0.00000158923

Standard deviation = √(0.00000158923/13

sd = 0.00035

For the null hypothesis

H0: μd ≥ 0

For the alternative hypothesis

H1: μd < 0

The distribution is a students t. Therefore, degree of freedom, df = n - 1 = 13 - 1 = 12

The formula for determining the test statistic is

t = (xd - μd)/(sd/√n)

t = (0.0002077 - 0)/(0.00035/√13)

t = 2.14

We would determine the probability value by using the t test calculator.

p = 0.027

Since alpha, 0.05 > than the p value, 0.027, then we would reject the null hypothesis. Therefore, at 5% significance level, we can conclude that the true average energy expenditure using the conventional shovel does not exceed that using the perforated shovel.

The total claim amount for a health insurance policy follows a distribution with density function 1 ( /1000) ( ) 1000 x fx e− = , x > 0. The premium for the policy is set at the expected total claim amount plus 100. If 100 policies are sold, calculate the approximate probability that the insurance company will have claims exceeding the premiums collected.

Answers

Answer:

the approximate probability that the insurance company will have claims exceeding the premiums collected is [tex]\mathbf{P(X>1100n) = 0.158655}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of the density function of the total claim amount for the health insurance policy  is given as :

[tex]f_x(x) = \dfrac{1}{1000}e^{\frac{-x}{1000}}, \ x> 0[/tex]

Thus, the expected  total claim amount [tex]\mu[/tex] =  1000

The variance of the total claim amount [tex]\sigma ^2 = 1000^2[/tex]

However; the premium for the policy is set at the expected total claim amount plus 100. i.e (1000+100) = 1100

To determine the approximate probability that the insurance company will have claims exceeding the premiums collected if 100 policies are sold; we have :

P(X > 1100 n )

where n = numbers of premium sold

[tex]P (X> 1100n) = P (\dfrac{X - n \mu}{\sqrt{n \sigma ^2 }}> \dfrac{1100n - n \mu }{\sqrt{n \sigma^2}})[/tex]

[tex]P(X>1100n) = P(Z> \dfrac{\sqrt{n}(1100-1000}{1000})[/tex]

[tex]P(X>1100n) = P(Z> \dfrac{10*100}{1000})[/tex]

[tex]P(X>1100n) = P(Z> 1) \\ \\ P(X>1100n) = 1-P ( Z \leq 1) \\ \\ P(X>1100n) =1- 0.841345[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{P(X>1100n) = 0.158655}[/tex]

Therefore: the approximate probability that the insurance company will have claims exceeding the premiums collected is [tex]\mathbf{P(X>1100n) = 0.158655}[/tex]

But 4 billion people ... live in the zone in which pieces could fall. So any one person’s chances of being struck are one in 150 times 4 billion—or one in 600 billion." Do you see any inaccuracies in this reasoning?

Answers

Answer:

The odds are one in approximately 27 million.Not one in 600 billion

Step-by-step explanation:

From the news story, we are told that:

The odds are 1 in 150 that a piece of Skylab will hit someone.

However, 4 billion people live in the zone in which pieces could fall.

Therefore, any one person’s chances of being struck are:

[tex]=\dfrac{1}{150} \times 4$ billion\\=\dfrac{1}{37.5}$ billion\\\\=26,666,667 million[/tex]

Therefore, the odds are one in approximately 27 million.

The inaccuracy presented in this reasoning was that the odds are one in 600 billion.

Do all perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes?

Answers

Not necessarily, the more correct definition is opposite reciprocal slopes.

The example used is how horizontal and vertical lines are parallel. Horizontal lines have a slope of 0, also written as 0/1. However, vertical lines have an undefined slope, which isn't necessarily negative. It has a slope of 1/0, which is undefined. In this case, the reciprocal isn't negative.

Answer:

x = 1/9

Step-by-step explanation:

3^ (x+1) = 9 ^ (5x)

Replace 9 with 3^2

3^ (x+1) = 3^2 ^ (5x)

We know that a^b^c = a ^(b*c)

3^ (x+1) = 3^(2 * (5x))

3^ (x+1) = 3^(10x)

The bases are the same so the exponents are the same

x+1 = 10x

Subtract x from each side

x+1-x = 10x-x

1 = 9x

Divide each side by 9

1/9 = 9x/9

A random sample of 150 mortgages in the state of Florida was randomly selected. From this sample, 17 were found to be delinquent on their current payment. The 98% confidence interval for the proportion based on this sample is ________.

Answers

Answer:

The 98% confidence interval for the proportion based on this sample is (0.0531, 0.1735).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

For this problem, we have that:

[tex]n = 150, \pi = \frac{17}{150} = 0.1133[/tex]

98% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.02[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.02}{2} = 0.99[/tex], so [tex]Z = 2.327[/tex].

The lower limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.1133 - 2.327\sqrt{\frac{0.1133*0.8867}{150}} = 0.0531[/tex]

The upper limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.1133 + 2.327\sqrt{\frac{0.1133*0.8867}{150}} = 0.1735[/tex]

The 98% confidence interval for the proportion based on this sample is (0.0531, 0.1735).
