Well if it pumps 4 2/5 per minute that is equal to 4 4/10 in a minute or 4.4 because you multiply the top and bottom of the fraction by two. it’s still the same fraction but it is easy to convert to a decimal now. you could use this fraction but it’s much easier to use decimals. Because the first number is a decimal you should make the second one a decimal too. To do this you need to know that 1/4 of 100 is 25. so now we have these numbers and all you do now is divide 17.25 by 4.4 which could be rounded to 4 because it’s a long decimal
Answer:
t = -24*log(2/3)
Step-by-step explanation:
The expression is:
V = 22,500*10^(-t/12)
Replacing with V = 10,000 and isolating t, we get:
10,000 = 22,500*10^(-t/12)
10,000/22,500 = 10^(-t/12)
4/9 = 10^(-t/12)
(2/3)² = 10^(-t/12)
2*log(2/3) = -t/12
-12*2*log(2/3) = t
t = -24*log(2/3)
Step-by-step explanation:
use Pythagoras theorem,


It's annuity problem
To solve your question use the formula of the present value of annuity ordinary which is
Pv=pmt [(1-(1+r)^(-n))÷r]
Pv present value?
PMT yearly payments 18000
R interest rate 0.09
N time 20 years
So
Pv=18,000×((1−(1+0.09)^(−20))÷(0.09))
pv=164,313.82
