Question

The following graph shows the temperature in degrees Celsius of Robert’s cup of coffee, \(t\) minutes after pouring it out. The equation of the cooling graph is \(f (t) = 16 + 74 \times 2.8^{−0.2t}\) where \(f (t)\) is the temperature and \(t\) is the time in minutes after pouring the coffee out.

Robert, who lives in the UK, travels to Belgium. The exchange rate is 1.37 euros to one British Pound (GBP) with a commission of 3 GBP, which is subtracted before the exchange takes place. Robert gives the bank 120 GBP.

Question

Give your answers to parts (b), (c) and (d) to the nearest whole number.

Harinder has 14 000 US Dollars (USD) to invest for a period of five years. He has two options of how to invest the money.

Option A: Invest the full amount, in USD, in a fixed deposit account in an American bank.

The account pays a nominal annual interest rate of r % , compounded yearly, for the five years. The bank manager says that this will give Harinder a return of 17500 USD.

Option B: Invest the full amount, in Indian Rupees (INR), in a fixed deposit account in an Indian bank. The money must be converted from USD to INR before it is invested.

The exchange rate is 1 USD = 66.91 INR.

The account in the Indian bank pays a nominal annual interest rate of 5.2 % compounded monthly.

Calculate the value of r.[3]

a.

Calculate 14 000 USD in INR.[2]

b.

Calculate the amount of this investment, in INR, in this account after five years.[3]

c.

Harinder chose option B. At the end of five years, Harinder converted this investment back to USD. The exchange rate, at that time, was 1 USD = 67.16 INR.

Calculate how much more money, in USD, Harinder earned by choosing option B instead of option A.[3]
