You purchased a rare painting for $150 that is increasing in value by 3% annually. How many years will it take until it is doubl

Ahat [919]

Answer:

23 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the initial price of painting is $150 and its values increasing by 3% annually.

We need to find how many years will it take until it is doubled in value.

The value of painting after t years is given by

$y=150(1+0.03)^t$

$y=150(1.03)^t$

The value of painting after double is 300. Substitute y=300.

$300=150(1.03)^t$

Divide both sides by 150.

$2=(1.03)^t$

Taking log both sides.

$\log 2=\log (1.03)^t$

$\log 2=t\log (1.03)$

$t=\dfrac{\log 2}{\log (1.03)}$

$t=23.44977$

$t\approx 23$

Therefore, the required number of years is 23.

Por favor alguien sabe cuál es. soy un número de 5 dígitos. Mi dígito de las decenas es la suma de mi cientos dígitos y miles de

mixas84 [53]

47184.

Así que la suma de los cientos y miles será dos veces el dígito de las unidades . Miles ( 7 ) + cientos ( 1 ) = 8. 8 es dos veces más que el dígito de las unidades ( 4) de los miles de diez dígitos es el mismo que el de un dígito es así, esto hace que los miles a decenas 4 también .

Given the recursive formula for a geometric sequence find the common ratio, the first four terms, and the explicit formula.

Dahasolnce [82]

Since a(n)=-3(a(n-1)) the common ratio is -3, and a(1)=-3 so

a(n)=-3(-3^(n-1)) so the first four terms are:

-3, 9, -27, 81

Simplify completely the quantity 5 times x to the third power plus 10 times x to the 2nd power plus 15 times x all over 5 times

dedylja [7]

The correct answer is:

x²+2x+3.

Explanation:

$\frac{5x^3+10x^2+15x}{5x}$

We need to divide each term of the numerator by the denominator. For the first term:
$\frac{5x^3}{5x}$

Dividing the coefficients, we have 5/5 = 1.
When dividing the variables, we use the quotient rule: when dividing powers that have the same base, subtract the exponents. This gives us:
x³/x = x³/x¹ = x³⁻¹ = x²

For the first monomial, this gives us 1x² = x².

The second term:
$\frac{10x^2}{5x}$

Dividing the coefficients, we have 10/5 = 2.
Dividing the variables, we again use the product rule:
x²/x = x²/x¹ = x²⁻¹ = x¹ = x

Together this gives us 2x.

The third term:
$\frac{15x}{5x}$

Dividing the coefficients, we have
15/5 = 3.
Dividing the variables, we have x/x; when you divide something by itself, the answer is 1. This gives us:
3*1 = 3.

Together our quotient is x²+2x+3.
