C) 5387.42 D) 6387.42

 FV=p1+rnnt

 

FV = Future value of the Deposit

 

p = Principal or Amount of Money deposited

 

r = Annual Interest Rate (in decimal form )

 

n = No of times compounded per year

 

t = time in years

FV=40001+0.0644(5)= 5387.42

Q:

A vessel is filled with liquid, 3 parts of which are water and 5 parts of syrup. How much of the mixture must be drawn off and replaced with water so that the mixture may be half water and half syrup?

A) 1/3 B) 1/4
C) 1/5 D) 1/7
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 1/5

Explanation:

Suppose the vessel initially contains 8 litres of liquid.

 

Let x litres of this liquid be replaced with water.
Quantity of water in new mixture =  3-3x8+xlitres.

 

Quantity of syrup in new mixture =  5-5x8 litres.

 

  3-3x8+x=5-5x8

 

=>   5x + 24 = 40 - 5x 

 

=>   10x = 16    => x = 8/5

 

So, part of the mixture replaced = 85×18 = 1/5.
