We begin with an unknown initial investment value, which we will call P. This value is what we are solving for.

The amount in the account on January 1st, 2015 before Carol withdraws $1000 is found by the compound interest formula A = P(1+r/n)^(nt) ; where A is the amount in the account after interest, r is the interest rate, t is time (in years), and n is the number of compounding periods per year.

In this problem, the interest compounds annually, so we can simplify the formula to A = P(1+r)^t. We can plug in our values for r and t. r is equal to .025, because that is equal to 2.5%. t is equal to one, so we can just write A = P(1.025).

We then must withdraw 1000 from this amount, and allow it to gain interest for one more year.

The principle in the account at the beginning of 2015 after the withdrawal is equal to 1.025P - 1000. We can plug this into the compound interest formula again, as well as the amount in the account at the beginning of 2016.

23,517.6 = (1.025P - 1000)(1 + .025)^1
23,517.6 = (1.025P - 1000)(1.025)

Divide both sides by 1.025

22,944 = (1.025P - 1000)

Add 1000 to both sides

23,944 = 1.025P

Divide both by 1.025 for the answer

$22,384.39 = P. We now have the value of the initial investment.

A crane is lowering a concrete block from a height of 270 feet above the ground at a constant rate of 2.5 feet per second. Which
iogann1982 [59]

The function would be h = 270 - 2.5s, where h is the height (in feet) and s it the time (in seconds) that has passed.

The 270 represents the initial value, which is given. We are told that the initial height of the block is 270 feet.

2.5s represents the feet that it has descended. We know the block is lowered at a rate of 2.5 feet per second. Multiplying this by s, the time, will give us how much it has descended.
