Q:

Find the effective rate of interest for an investment that earns 5 1/2% per year, compounded continuously

A) 5.65% B) 5.75%
C) 5.85% D) 5.95%
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 5.65%

Explanation:

We are not given a value of P in this problem, so either pick a value

for P and stick with that throughout the problem, or just let P = P.

We have that t = 1, and r = .055. To find the effective rate of interest,

first find out how much money we have after one year:

A = Pert

A = Pe(.055)(1)

A = 1.056541P.

Therefore, after 1 year, whatever the principal was, we now have 1.056541P.

Next, find out how much interest was earned, I, by subtracting the initial amount of money from the final amount:

I = A − P

  = 1.056541P − P

  = .056541P.

Finally, to find the effective rate of interest, use the simple interest formula, I = Prt. So,

I = Pr(1) = .056541P

.056541 = r.

Therefore, the effective rate of interest is 5.65%

Q:

If the ratio of area of rectangle to its perimeter is 60:11. And length and breadth are in the ratio 6 : 5. Find length of rectangle.

A) 40 units B) 30 units
C) 13 units D) 24 units
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 24 units

Explanation:

Ratio of length and breadth is 6 : 5
∴ Length = 6x
Breadth = 5x
∴ Area = l x b = 30x2
∴ Perimeter = 2 (l + b) = 2(6x + 5x) =22x
∴ (30*x*x)/(22x)= 60/11
∴ X = 4
∴ Length = 6x = 6 x 4 = 24 units
