8:00 a.m - 2:00 p.m. is 6 hours.

6/24 * 100 %= 1/4 * 100% = 25%

A school hold classes for 25% of the day.

8:00 a.m all the way until 2:00 p.m.

8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m is 4 hours.
12:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m is 2 hours

8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. is 6 hours.

6 hours out of a 24 hour day.

\frac{6}{24} =\frac{x}{100}\\\\\frac{1}{4} =\frac{x}{100}\\\\\sf{Cross~multiplying}\\\\100 = 4x\\\\\sf{Divide~4~on~both~sides

\boxed{\bf{x =25}}

The school holds classes for 25% of the 24-hour day.

Ira Lisetskai [31]

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.
