A $50,000 investment earns 18% annually. If B represents the balance and t represents the number of years, determine an expression that gives the account balance, B, after t years. Also, determine an equivalent expression that displays the effective monthly interest rate. A) B = 50000(1.18)t; B = 50000(1.14)12t
B) B = 50000(1.18)t; B = 50000(1.014)12t
C) B = 50000(1.018)t; B = 50000(1.14)12t
Eliminate
D) B = 50000(1.18)t; B = 50000(0.014)12t

Determine if the following statement is true or false. the normal curve is symmetric about its​ mean, mu. choose the best answer below. a. the statement is false. the normal curve is not symmetric about its​ mean, because the mean is the balancing point of the graph of the distribution. the median is the point where​ 50% of the area under the distribution is to the left and​ 50% to the right.​ therefore, the normal curve could only be symmetric about its​ median, not about its mean. b. the statement is true. the normal curve is a symmetric distribution with one​ peak, which means the​ mean, median, and mode are all equal.​ therefore, the normal curve is symmetric about the​ mean, mu. c. the statement is false. the mean is the balancing point for the graph of a​ distribution, and​ therefore, it is impossible for any distribution to be symmetric about the mean. d. the statement is true. the mean is the balancing point for the graph of a​ distribution, and​ therefore, all distributions are symmetric about the mean.
