The CD be worth in 5 years is

We would use the following formula to calculate compound interest:

A = P(1 + r / n) nt

Where

A is the CD's total value after t years.

The interest rate is represented by r.

The periodic interval at which it was compounded is represented by n.

P stands for the principal, or the amount of the CD purchase.

Considering the data provided,

P = 1500

r = 6% = 6/100 = 0.06

Since it was compounded 12 times in a year, n = 12.

The phrase changes.

A = 1500(1+0.06/12)^12 × t

A = 1500(1+0.005)^12t

A = 1500(1.005)^12t

1) If t is five years,

A = 1500(1.005)^12 × 5

A = $2023.3

2) If t equals ten years,

A = 1500(1.005)^12 × 10

A = $2729.1

3) If t equals 486 months, then 486/12 is 40.5 years.

A = 1500(1.005)^12 × 40.5

A = $16935

If ∠2=10x+7 and one angle is 67 degrees then value of x is 6.

A triangle is a three-sided polygon that consists of three edges and three vertices.

Given that the triangle has two equal sides which makes the triangle as isosceles.

In an isosceles triangle the two sides will be always equal and the angles will be also equal.

One angle of the triangle is 67 degrees

We need to find the ∠2.

As we know that the equal sides make equal angles.

∠2=67 degrees

and from given ∠2=10x+7

Now equation 67 with the 10x+7 to find the value of x.

So 67=10x+7

subtract 7 from both sides

67-7=10x+7-7

60=10x

Divide both sides by 10

x=60/10

x=6

The measure of an interior angle (in degrees) of an [tex]n[/tex]-sided regular polygon is [tex]\frac{180(n-2)}{n}[/tex].

[tex]n=45 \implies \frac{180(n-2)}{n}=\boxed{172^{\circ}}[/tex]

The degree measure of one angle of a 45-sided regular polygon is 172°.

When two lines or rays intersect at a single point, an angle is created. The vertex is the term for the shared point. An angle measure in geometry is the length of the angle created by two rays or arms meeting at a common vertex.

Here, the polygon has 45 sides.

To find the measure of an interior angle of a regular polygon,

we make use of the formula for each angle = (n - 2) × 180 / n.

The formula calculated is only valid in cases of regular-sided polygons.

n =  45 substituting the value of n to the formula.

(n - 2) × 180 / n

= 180 ( 45-2) / 45

= 180 x 43 / 45

= 7740 / 45

= 172°

Therefore, the measure of one angle is 172°.

1. If a polynomial function with rational coefficients has -4 and 8 as roots, it means we can factor this polynomial this way :

What is rational coefficients?

A coefficient is a number that is placed in front of a variable. A variable and a rational number are preceded by a rational coefficient, which may be an integer, decimal, or fraction.

(x - (-4))(x-8) = (x+4)(x-8) = x² - 8x + 4x - 32 = x² - 4x - 32

1x² - 4x - 32 is a polynomial function of least degree with rational coefficients that satisfices the given conditions. The leading coefficient here is 1, we call this a monic polynomial.

2. There may be something missing in the question here

3. We can use the factoring techniques to find the roots :

x^3 - 5x² + 9x - 45 let us group x^3 with -5x² and 9x with -45 :

(x^3 - 5x²) + (9x - 45) = x²(x - 5) + 9(x - 5)

We can notice now that there is a common factor : (x-5) this allows us to factor again by (x-5) :

Y = (x-5)(x²+9)

This is the maximum we can do on R, but on C the set of complex we can still factor again.

x² + 9 has a negative discriminant : Δ = b² - 4ac where b = 0 , a = 1, c = 9

Δ < 0, Δ = - 36

Applying the formulas for the roots x1 and x2 we get x1 = -3i, and x2 = + 3i

Y = (x-5)(x-3i)(x+3i)

So the solution is S = {5, 3i, -3i} the three roots of the function.

What are solids ?

A three-dimensional object that is closed (which may, according to some terminology conventions, be self-intersecting). A solid is any constrained area of space that is bounded by surfaces, according to Kern and Bland (1948, p. 18). The sphere, cube, cone, and cylinder, as well as the polyhedra more broadly, are some of the most basic solids.

h= 12

diameter = d = 8

so, radius, r = d/2 = 8/2 = 4

Formula for slant height , l is:

l = √(h² + r²) = √(12² + 4² )

The pressure of 28 inches of mercury occurs about 6 miles from the eye of the hurricane. We get this from the given algebraic expression.

An expression is formed by variables, constants, and algebraic operations. Since the operation among them is an algebraic or arithmetic operation, it is said to be an algebraic expression.

It is given that the algebraic expression that relates the barometric pressure and the eye of the hurricane as

f(x) = 0.48 ln(x+2) + 27

Here x is the distance in miles from the eye of the hurricane.

f(x) is the pressure of the mercury in a barometer in inches

So, the required distance from the eye of the hurricane when the pressure of 28 inches of mercury in the meter is

(Here f(x) = 28)

f(x) = 0.48 ln(x+2) + 27

⇒ 28 = 0.48 ln(x+2) + 27

⇒ 0.48 ln(x+2) = 28 - 27

⇒ ln (x+2) = 1/0.48

⇒ ln(x+2) = 2.0833

Applying exponential base "e" on both sides, we get

(x+2) = [tex]e^{2.0833}[/tex]

⇒ x + 2 = 8.0309

⇒ x = 8.0309 - 2 = 6.0309

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

Men : Women = 5 : 3

Children : Adults = 1 : 2

This means that

Children : Men : Women  = 1 : 2(Men : Women)

So, we have the following representation

Children : Men : Women  = 1 : 2(5/8 : 3/8)

Open the brackets

Children : Men : Women  = 1 : 5/4 : 3/4

Children : Men : Women  = 4 : 5 : 3

Rewrite the ratio as

Men : Women : Children 5 : 3 : 4

a) The monthly repayment amount is $466.67.

b) The total interest paid on loan is $21,000.

Interests on student loans are computed using the simple interest system, instead of compound interest.

The total interest payable is a function of the outstanding balance (principal amount plus accumulated interest) during the non-payment period, the interest rate, and the number of years of payment.

Unsubsidized Loans plus Accumulated Interest = $35,000

Interest rate (APR) = 6%

Repayment period = 120 months (10 years x 12)

Interest on the student loan = $21,000 ($35,000 x 6% x 10)

Total amount to repay for 10 years = $56,000

Monthly repayment = $466.67 ($56,000 ÷ 120)

Thus, the monthly repayment will be $466.67, which is determined by adding the total interest for 10 years to the outstanding balance and dividing the result by 120 months.

The value of x is 18 if ∠C and ​ ∠D ​ are vertical angles. m∠C = 5x - 7 and m∠D = 8x – 55.

It is defined as the angles when two lines intersect each other and at the intersecting point, some pair of angles are formed which we call vertically opposite angles, as the name describes that they have vertically opposite angles.

It is given that:

∠C and ​ ∠D ​ are vertical angles.

5x-7 = 8x-55

Subtract 5x from both sides:

-7 = 3x -55

Add 55 to both sides:

3x = 48

x = 48 /3

x = 16

Thus, the value of x is 18 if ∠C and ​ ∠D ​ are vertical angles. m∠C = 5x - 7 and m∠D = 8x – 55.
