Mathematics

EleoNora [17]2 years ago

Answer:

18 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for computing accrued amount A for a principal of P at an interest rate of r(in decimal) compounded n times in a year for t years is given by

A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}

Note that r is percentage converted to decimal. So 3% = 3/100 = 0.03

We can rearrange the above equation to:

\frac{A}{P} = (1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}

Taking logs on both sides

log(\frac{A}{P}) = log(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}

This gives

log(\frac{A}{P}) =nt \times log(1 + \frac{r}{n})\\So,\\nt = \frac{log(\frac{A}{P})}{ log(1 + \frac{r}{n})}

In this particular problem, n = 4, , A= 9600, P = 5600, r =0.03, so r/n = 0.03/4 = 0.0075

1 + r/n = 1+0.0075 = 1.0075

4t = log(9600/5600)/log(1.0075) = log(1.714) / log(1.0075) = 0.234 /0.00325 = 72

t = 72/4 = 18 years

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

4V = 3U

Step-by-step explanation:

The final cost of a sale item is determined by multiplying the price on the tag by 75%.

Let us assume that the final cost of the sale item is V and the price on the tag is given by U.

Then the equation that best describes the function that represents the situation is V = \frac{75U}{100} =\frac{3U}{4}

⇒ 4V = 3U  (Answer)
