Why should I? I like having a secretary. Girls are good at that kind of thing.  Much better than guys are. 

Just like this: (1 + 0.05)^5 =1.05^5 =1.2762815625

;)                            !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you think that $100 is per quarter, then this is the formula you would use, "Mr. Economist"!

FV=P{[1 + R]^N - 1/ R}

FV =$100 x {[1 + 0.03/4]^(3*4) - 1 / (0.03/4)}

FV = $100 x {[1.0075]^12 - 1 / 0.0075}

FV =$100 x       {0.0938069... / 0.0075}

FV =$100 x           12.5075863.........

FV =$1,250.76 - And that is what you would have if it were $100 per quarter !!.

Exactly

Who cares?

Damņ you JB! Read your blŏŏdy messages! I told you there were forum members who think your troll posts are my work. You not only imitate Nauseated’s dark passenger, you imitate mine too. I sometimes get hate mail because of it. I don’t mind that much, but I most of the time I have no bleedin' idea what the helļ they’re writing about because I didn’t write the posts and they’ve long been deleted.

There are three blanked posts on this thread, so your snarky and rude comments must have been voluminous; though I am sure they were quite funny, you need to log on and claim your copyright.  I don’t want to be your secretary.

Oh! I almost forgot: Hi Melody.

CPhill, Oh my gosh, yes! you're a genius. thank you so much! 

No! It is compounded QUARTERLY!!. Which means you divide the interest rate by 4 and you will get:

0.03 /4 =0.0075 per QUARTER!. So, you will have this: $100 x 1.0075^12 =$109.38.

Hmm it seems your response shows your knowledge of economics. The term compounding refers to interest which gathers interest... You can't just multiply by 3 silly. The reason I set compound period equal to the payment period is an easy way to get the effective interest rate.

You say " I've assumed it's $100.00 per year for 3 years" Even if you were right, what is $100 per year for 3 years??? $100 x 3 =$300 + interest. So, where did $995.40 come from? Of course, your assumption is wrong, because this question is very clear to those of us who regularly deal with such simple questions. 

Even if it is a single deposit of $100.00 Cphill is wrong...

100(1+(.03/12)^12) = $103.04

Well look more into my description Guest... I've assumed it's $100.00 per year for 3 years. Maybe a better explanation of the question would equal a better answer.

Are you correct?

Guest #2

Is that the "new math" you are using for a very simple financial question? Just see what CPhill did and learn from it.

$100.00 for three years. This implies you receive $100.00 every year for 3 years.

Let's adjust our payment period to equal our compound period by multiplying 3 by 4 (since there are 4 quarters per year).

Now we should be able to set this problem into a notation such as

100(P/A,3%,12)

(Use interest factor tables or actual formulas)

100(9.954)=

$995.40

100 (1 + .03/4)^(3 * 4)  = $109.38

Volume would normally be given as inches^3....I'm going to assume that it is supposed to be

215 in ^3

The paint can is a cylinder.....and the volume of a cylinder is

pi * radius ^2 * height

Filling in what we know, we have

215  = pi * radius^2 * 7.5      

Divide both sides by  pi *  7.5

[215 / ( pi * 7.5) ]  = radius^2

Take the square root of both sides

sqrt [  215 / (pi * 7.5) ]  =  radius  = about 3.02 inches  =  about 3 inches to the nearest whole number

Hope that helped....!!!

Pyscho Baker, I'm homeschooled, doing Distance Education, and my school sends me paces, It's basically a 10 - 50 page workbook, with lots of questions and all that stuff, but the thing is a lot of the stuff they explain very poorly cause they don't have space to put massive detailed instructions. it sucks.

What's a "pace?" Is it a workbook, are you in a private school or something?

You can press the 2nd button in the top left, then press "atan"

Also, you can type in " atan(  ) ," " arctan(  ) ," or " tan^-1(  ) " into the bar.

For example..... to take the inverse tangent of  0.5  , type:  " atan(0.5) " .
