the account balance be after 20 years?
A) $16,031.88 B) $17,704.05
C) $15,329.01 D) $16,844.10

Answers

Answer:

B) $17,704.05

Step-by-step explanation:

20 years later is a time in the future so you use Future value formula;

FV = PV* (1+r)^t

where PV= Amount invested in the present = $6,540

r= discount rate = (5% / 6) = 0.833% or 0.00833

t= total duration = 20 *6 = 120

Next, plug in the numbers into the formula;

=6,540* (1+0.00833)^120

=6,540 * 2.707041491

= 17,704.05

Remember that radius is half of the diameter (1/2 d)

10 * 2 = 20 

20 is the diameter. 

c
---   =  3.14               Get 'c' by itself by multiplying 20 to both sides
20

This eliminates the '20' in c/20 

c   =   3.14 (20)

Multiply. 

c = 62.8 

Your circumference is 62.8

Well I don't know ! 
Let's take a look and see:

The idea is that there could be more than one way
for a roll of the dice to land with the same number.  

-- If the sum is from 1-4, you get the point.
There are  6  different ways for a roll of the dice to come up 1-4.

-- If the sum is from 5-8, Adam gets the point.
There are  20  different ways for a roll of the dice to come up 5-8.

-- If the sum is 9-12, Lana gets the point.
There are  10  different ways for a roll of the dice to come up 9-12.

-- The game is not fair to all three of you.
-- Lana has a distinct advantage over you.
-- Adam has a big advantage over Lana.
-- Adam has an even bigger advantage over you.
-- You are at a big disadvantage.  (Notice that one of your
numbers ... 1 ... can never come up unless one of the dice
falls off of the table.)
