A. use the formula for continuous compounding with the original example: $1000 invested at 2% for 1 year. record the amount to 5 decimal places. use a calculator. b. compare it to the result using the original compound interest formula with n = 365 calculated to 5 decimal places. which has a larger value? explain.

An incoming airplane is x miles due north from the control tower at an airport. a second incoming airplane is y miles due east of the same control tower. the shortest distance between the two airplanes is z miles. which of the following functions would best model the situation above?

Arandom sample of 15 observations is used to estimate the population mean. the sample mean and the standard deviation are calculated as 172 and 63, respectively. assume that the population is normally distributed. a. with 99 confidence, what is the margin of error for the estimation of the population mean? b. construct the 99% confidence interval for the population mean. c. construct the 95% confidence interval for the population mean. d. construct the 83% confidence interval for the population mean. hint: you need to use excel function =t.inv.2t to find the value of t for the interval calculation.
