Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

To compare between the two investments, it is necessary to calculate the required principal to be deposited in the bank at 9 rate of interest for ten years to generate 12,990.
The present value of 12,990 at 9 rate of interest is 12,990/(1.09 )10 = 5,487.12.
Hence, if the rate of interest is 9, the sum of 12,990 can be earned by depositing approximately 5,488 in the bank for ten years.
Because George needs to invest a smaller amount of money to generate the same return from the bank, investing in the bank is a better option for him.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
