You have just made your first $5,500 contribution to your retirement account. assume you earn a return of 10 percent per year and make no additional contributions.

a. what will your account be worth when you retire in 45 years? (do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e. g., 32.16.)
b. what if you wait 10 years before contributing? (do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e. g., 32.16.)

a. $400,897.66

b. $154,563.40

Explanation:

The computations are shown below:

We know that

Amount = Present value × (1 + rate)^number of years

a. So the amount for 45 years would be

= $5,500 × (1 + 0.10)^45

= $5,500 × 72.8904836851

= $400,897.66

b. The amount before 10 years means 45 years - 10 years = 35 years

= $5,500 × (1 + 0.10)^35

= $5,500 × 28.1024368481

= $154,563.40

among other factors, composers started writing dynamic markings in their scores because "new instruments allowed for more dynamic ranges and contrast."

dynamics allude to the loudness or softness of music. dynamics offer an approach to demonstrate articulation in sheet music. they to drive the enthusiastic substance of music through volume and force. maybe you could alter both the volume and the shading profundity on your screen at the same time. we can likewise think about the force side of elements as the quality of a note. a few notes are intended to be played delicately and gently, while others are intended to be played all the more firmly.  

some dynamics markings have a letter 'm,' which remains for mezzo, signifying 'medium.' so a mezzo piano unique stamping resembles this (mp) and intends to play medium calm, while a mezzo specialty dynamic resembles this (mf) and intends to play medium loud.
