r\approx0.139

1) Since this is a Continuously Compounded operation in a 10 yrs period, then we can write out the following equation:

\begin{gathered} A=Pe^{rt} \\  \end{gathered}

2) Plugging into the equation the given data and since Otto is 20 yrs old and he plans to get $4,000 in ten years, we can write out:

\begin{gathered} 4000=1000e^{\mleft\{10r\mright\}} \\ \frac{4000}{1000}=\frac{1000e^{10r}}{1000} \\ 4=e^{10r} \\ \ln (4)=\ln (e)^{10r} \\ 10r=\ln (4) \\ r=\frac{\ln (4)}{10} \\ r=0.1386 \end{gathered}

3) Thus the rate Otto needs is

r=0.1386\approx0.139

Note that since the 0.1386 the six here is greater than 5 then we can round up to the next thousandth, in this case: 0.139. For the 0.1386 is closer to 0.139 (0.004) than to 0.138 (0.006).

Or 13.9%

One day, a sprinter runs the 100 m dash 24 times, for a total distance of 24 00 m. how many kilometers did the sprinter run?
tigry1 [53]

The total distance that was covered by the sprinter in Kilometers is:

  • 2.4 Km

<h3>How much is the total distance covered?</h3>

To obtain the total distance covered by the sprinter, we need to first realize that 1 Km is equal to 1000 meters. That said, the question above requires us to change 2400 meters to kilometers.

Thus we will have:

2400 Meters * 1 km / 1000 meters

= 2.4 km

So, the total distance covered by the sprinter in kilometers is 2.4
