Answer:

Equation is  A = 5000(1.015)^(4t)

Her investment will be worth $10,000 in about <u>11.63888 years</u>

Rounding up to the nearest whole number gets to <u>12 years</u>

==========================================================

Explanation:

Part 1) Finding the equation

The compound interest formula is

A = P(1+r/n)^(n*t)

Here are the variables

  • A = final amount
  • P = starting amount, or deposit, or principal
  • r = interest rate in decimal form
  • n = number of times money is compounded per year
  • t = number of years

In this case,

  • P = 5000
  • r = 0.06 from the 6% annual interest
  • n = 4 times a year is the compounding frequency
  • t = unknown amount of time

Therefore, the equation is

A = P(1+r/n)^(n*t)

A = 5000(1+0.06/4)^(4t)

A = 5000(1.015)^(4t)

The decimal value is exact.

--------------------------

Part 2) Let's plug in A = 10,000 and solve for t.

You'll need to use logarithms to isolate the exponent.

A = 5000(1.015)^(4t)

10,000 = 5000(1.015)^(4t)

10,000/5000 = (1.015)^(4t)

2 = (1.015)^(4t)

Log[ 2 ] = Log[ (1.015)^(4t) ]

Log(2) = 4t*Log( 1.015 )

4t = Log(2)/Log(1.015)

4t = 46.5555256308062

t = 46.5555256308062/4

t = 11.6388814077015

t = 11.63888

It takes about 11.63888 years for the investment to reach $10,000.

Therefore, at the 12 year mark is when the investment is more than $10,000.

Answer:

11 years and 9 months

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Compound Interest Formula</u>

\large \text{$ \sf A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt} $}

where:

  • A = final amount
  • P = principal amount
  • r = interest rate (in decimal form)
  • n = number of times interest applied per time period
  • t = number of time periods elapsed

Given:

  • A = $10000
  • P = $5000
  • r = 6% = 0.06
  • n = 4 (as compounded quarterly)
  • t = years

Substitute the given values into the equation and solve for t:

\implies 10000=5000\left(1+\dfrac{0.06}{4}\right)^{4t}

\implies \dfrac{10000}{5000}=\left(1+0.015\right)^{4t}

\implies 2=\left(1.015\right)^{4t}

Take natural logs of both sides:

\implies \ln 2=\ln \left(1.015\right)^{4t}

Apply the power log law:

\implies \ln 2=4t\ln \left(1.015\right)

Simplify:

\implies t=\dfrac{\ln 2}{4 \ln 1.015}

\implies t=11.63888141

11.6388141... years ≈ 11 years and 7.7 months

As the interest is earned <u>quarterly</u>, round this to the nearest quarter

⇒ 11 years and 9 months.

Therefore, Kim's investment will be worth <em>more</em> than $10,000 at <u>11 years and 9 months</u>.

Calculate the value of X
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

x=\frac{133}{3}^o

Step-by-step explanation:

The <u><em>Triangle external angle theorem</em></u> states that :An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles. For more on this see

see the attached figure with letter to better understand the problem

step 1

Find the measure of the interior angle  at B

we know that

m\angle B+2x=180^o ----> by supplementary angles (form a linear pair)

m\angle B=180^o-2x

step 2

Find the value of x

Applying the triangle external angle theorem

86^o+(180-2x)^o=4x^o

solve for x

86^o+(180-2x)^o=4x^o

4x+2x=266\\6x=266

x=\frac{266}{6}^o

simplify

x=\frac{133}{3}^o

Which calculation will ALWAYS give a result greater than 1? A.5 × a number less than 1 B.4/9+ a fraction less than 12 C. 1 3/4 -
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

  C.  1 3/4 - (a fraction less than 3/4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Your number sense should be able to help you with this one.

A. 5 × 1/10 = 1/2, not a number greater than 1

B. 4/9 + 1/3 = 7/9, not a number greater than 1

C. 1 3/4 -1/2 = 1 1/4, a number greater than 1 (see below for more explanation)

D. 7/8 × 1/2 = 7/16, not a number greater than 1.

__

<em>More explanation</em>

Let x represent a number less than 3/4. Then we want to make sure that ...

  y = 1 3/4 - x

will be greater than 1.

Solving for x, we get ...

  x = 1 3/4 - y

Applying the requirement that x < 3/4, we have ...

  x < 3/4

  (1 3/4 -y) < 3/4

  1 3/4 < y + 3/4 . . . . . . add y

  1 < y . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 3/4

We see that the condition on x makes sure that y is always greater than 1.
