To answer this question, we need to use the next formula for simple interest:
[tex]FV=PV\cdot(1+in)[/tex]Where:
FV is the future value we need to find (in this case).
PV is the present value, that is, $400 (in this case).
i is the interest rate. In this case, we have 8% (0.08).
n is the number of periods (n = 3, in this case).
Then, we have:
[tex]FV=400\cdot(1+(0.08)\cdot3)\Rightarrow FV=496[/tex]That is, the FV is $496. Therefore, the simple interest is $(496-400 = 96).
Thus, the amount of simple interest that $400 would earn at 8% per year by the end of 3 years is $96 (option A).
In other words, the result can be obtained also if we have is $400 * (0.08)*3 = $96.

[tex]\begin{equation*} 20u^5 \end{equation*}[/tex]I only need part bb) A foam protector is covered with PVC material to make it waterproof. Find the total surface area of a protector which is covered by PVCmaterial.
Assuming all the parts are covered, inluding the internal part, we have to find the surface area of the whole protector.
So, let's list which areas we need:
- We need the lateral areas of the external parts, which are 4 rectangles.
- We need the top and bottom areas, which are both area of squares minus the area of the cicle of the hole.
- We need the interior aread, which is the same as the lateral area of a cylinder.
For the external part, we only need the dimensions of each rectangle. since they have the same length and the other sides are the sides of the squares, they are all the same.
The area of each of them is:
[tex]A_{\text{rectangle}}=300mm\cdot1.8m=0.3m\cdot1.8m=0.54m^2[/tex]Since we have 4, the total exterior lateral area is:
[tex]A_{\text{lateral}}=4\cdot0.54m^2=2.16m^2[/tex]For the top and bottom, both are the same, a square of 300 mm x 300 mm with a hole of 150 mm diameter.
First, let's get all to meters: 0.3 m x 0.3 m and 0.15 m diameter. The radius of the circle is half the diameter, so:
[tex]r=\frac{0.15m}{2}=0.075m[/tex]The area of a circle given its radius is:
[tex]A=\pi r^2[/tex]So, the area of both the top and bottom is the area of the square minus the area of the circle and double all of this:
[tex]\begin{gathered} A_{\text{top/ottom}}=2((0.3m)^2-\pi(0.075m)^2) \\ A_{\text{top/ottom}}=2(0.09m^2-0.005625\pi m^2) \\ A_{\text{top/ottom}}=2(0.09-0.005625\pi)m^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]We deal with π later on.
For the lateral area of the cylinder, we can remember that it is the same as the area of a rectangle with on dimension being the length of the cylinder and the other being the circumference of the top/bottom.
the circumference of a circle is:
[tex]C=2\pi r[/tex]The radius is the same as the hole, and the length is 1.8m, so the lateral area of the cylinder is:
[tex]\begin{gathered} A_{\text{cylinder}}=1.8m\cdot2\pi(0.075m) \\ A_{\text{cylinder}}=(1.8\cdot0.15\pi)m^2 \\ A_{\text{cylinder}}=(0.27\pi)m^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]So, the total surface area is the sum of all of these:
[tex]A=2.16m^2+2(0.09-0.005625\pi)m^2+(0.27\pi)m^2[/tex]Now, we just need to evaluate:
[tex]\begin{gathered} A=2.16m^2+2\cdot0.072328\ldots m^2+0.848230\ldots m^2 \\ A=2.16m^2+0.144657\ldots m^2+0.848230\ldots m^2 \\ A=3.152887\ldots m^2 \\ A\approx3.15m^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]So, the lateral area is approximately 3.15 m².

5. SOLVE THe linear equation : 13x – 5 + 171 = x
Answer:
x = -83/6 = -13.833
Step-by-step explanation:
Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :
13*x-5+171-(x)=0
1.1 Pull out like factors :
12x + 166 = 2 • (6x + 83)
2.2 Solve : 6x+83 = 0
Subtract 83 from both sides of the equation :
6x = -83
Divide both sides of the equation by 6:
x = -83/6 = -13.833
determin wether true or false. (2 points) True False The functions f(x) = x – 5 and g(x) = -3x + 15 intersect at x = 5. The functions f (x) = 3 and g(x) = 11 – 2. intersect at x = 3. O The functions f (x) = x + 3 and g(x) = -x + 7 intersect at x = 2. The functions f (x) = {x – 3 and g(x) = -2x + 2 intersect at x = -2.
To find the intersection point between f(x) and g(x) we will equate their right sides
[tex]\begin{gathered} f(x)=x-5 \\ g(x)=-3x+15 \end{gathered}[/tex]Equate x - 5 by -3x + 15 to find x
[tex]x-5=-3x+15[/tex]add 3x to both sides

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{4x}{4}=\frac{20}{4} \\ x=5 \end{gathered}[/tex]Then the first one is TRUE
For the 2nd one
f(x) = 3, and g(x) = 11 - 2x
If x = 3, then substitute x by 3 in g(x)
[tex]\begin{gathered} g(3)=11-2(3) \\ g(3)=11-6 \\ g(3)=5 \end{gathered}[/tex]Since f(3) = 3 because it is a constant function and g(x) = 5 at x = 3
That means they do not intersect at x = 3 because f(3), not equal g(3)
[tex]f(3)\ne g(3)[/tex]Then the second one is FALSE
For the third one
f(x) = x + 3
at x = 2
[tex]\begin{gathered} f(2)=2+3 \\ f(2)=5 \end{gathered}[/tex]g(x) = -x + 7
at x = 2
[tex]\begin{gathered} g(2)=-2+7 \\ g(2)=5 \end{gathered}[/tex]Since f(2) = g(2), then
f(x) intersects g(x) at x = 2
The third one is TRUE
For the fourth one
[tex]f(x)=\frac{1}{2}x-3[/tex]At x = -2
[tex]\begin{gathered} f(-2)=\frac{1}{2}(-2)-3 \\ f(-2)=-1-3 \\ f(-2)=-4 \end{gathered}[/tex]g(x) = -2x + 2
At x = -2
[tex]\begin{gathered} g(-2)=-2(-2)+2 \\ g(-2)=4+2 \\ g(-2)=6 \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence f(-2) do not equal g(-2), then
[tex]f(-2)\ne g(-2)[/tex]f(x) does not intersect g(x) at x = -2
The fourth one is FALSE

The path of particle 1 is,

[tex]x(t)=\sqrt{t+6},\text{ }y(t)=-3+2t[/tex]To model the path of the two particles in cartesian form and to find whether, the two particles collide.
Explanation:
It is given that,
The path of the first particle is,
[tex]x(t)=3t-6,\text{ }y(t)=t^2-2t[/tex]That implies,
[tex]x=2t-6,\text{ }y=t^2-2t[/tex]Consider,
[tex]\begin{gathered} x=2t-6 \\ 2t=x+6 \\ t=\frac{x+6}{2} \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore,
[tex]\begin{gathered} y=(\frac{x+6}{2})^2-2(\frac{x+6}{2}) \\ y=\frac{x^2+12x+36}{4}-\frac{2x+12}{2} \\ y=\frac{x^2+12x+36-2(2x+12)}{4} \\ y=\frac{x^2+12x+36-4x-24}{4} \\ y=\frac{x^2+8x+12}{4}\text{ \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\lparen1\rparen} \end{gathered}[/tex]Also, the path of second particle is,
[tex]x(t)=\sqrt{t+6},\text{ }y(t)=-3+2t[/tex]That implies,
[tex]x=\sqrt{t+6},\text{ }y=-3+2t[/tex]Consider,
[tex]\begin{gathered} y=-3+2t \\ 2t=y+3 \\ t=\frac{y+3}{2} \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore,
[tex]\begin{gathered} x=\sqrt{t+6} \\ \Rightarrow x^2=(t+6) \\ \Rightarrow x^2=(\frac{y+3}{2})+6 \\ \Rightarrow x^2=\frac{y+3+12}{2} \\ \Rightarrow2x^2=y+15 \\ \Rightarrow y=2x^2-15\text{ \_\_\_\_\_\lparen2\rparen} \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence, y=(x^2+8x+12)/4, y=2x^2-15 are the paths of the two particles respectively.

Use the table to write an equation that relates the cost of lunch Y and the number of students X
In order to determine what is the equation which describes the values of the table, consider that the general form of the equation is:
y = mx
where m is the constant of proportionality between both variables x and y.
To calculate m you calculate the quotient between any pair of data from the table.
If you for example use the following values:
Students = 8.00
Lunch cost = 2
the constant of proportionality is:
m = 8.00/2 = 4.00
Next, you replace the value of m in the equation y=mx:
y = $4.00x

The quadratic equation that gives the height of the rocket, h = 156·t - 16·t² is evaluated at h = 60 feet to give the two times the rocket's height is 60 feet as 0.40 seconds and 9.35 seconds.
What is a quadratic equation?A quadratic equation is an equation of the second degree that can be expressed in the form; a·x² + b·x + c = 0, where the letters, a, and b represents the coefficients of x and c is a constant.
The initial velocity of the rocket = 156 ft./s upwards
The given equation of the rocket is: h = 156·t - 16·t²
The times when the rocket height is 60 feet are found by plugging in the value h = 60, in the equation of the vertical height of the rocket as follows:
h = 60 = 156·t - 16·t²
156·t - 16·t² - 60 = 0
4·(39·t - 4·t² - 15) = 0
Therefore: [tex]39\cdot t - 4\cdot t^2 - 15 = \dfrac{0}{4} =0[/tex]
39·t - 4·t² - 15 = 0
-4·t² + 39·t - 15 = 0
From the quadratic formula which is used to solve the quadratic equation of the form; f(x) = a·x² + b·x + c, is presented as follows;
[tex]x = \dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4\cdot a \cdot c} }{2\cdot a}[/tex]
The solution of the equation, -4·t² + 39·t - 15 = 0, is therefore:
[tex]t = \dfrac{-39\pm\sqrt{(39)^2-4\times (-4) \times (-15)} }{2\times (-4)}= \dfrac{-39\pm\sqrt{1281} }{-8}[/tex]
Therefore, when the height of the rocket is 60 feet, the times are: [tex]t = \dfrac{-39-\sqrt{1281} }{-8}\approx 9.35[/tex] and [tex]t = \dfrac{-39+\sqrt{1281} }{-8}\approx 0.40[/tex]
The times when the height of the rocket is 60 feet, the times are:
t ≈ 9.35 s, and t ≈ 0.40 s

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]For x = 3.4
[tex]z=\frac{3.4-4.0}{0.4}=\frac{-0.6}{0.4}=-1.5[/tex]For x = 4.5
[tex]z=\frac{4.5-4.0}{0.4}=\frac{0.5}{0.4}=1.25[/tex]The probability we have to find is
[tex]P=(3.4Using a z-table, we have[tex]\begin{gathered} P(3.4Then, we multiply by 100 to express it in percetange.[tex]0.2351\cdot100=23.51[/tex]Hence, the probability is 23.51%.
