Answer:

31.43 years

Explanation:

The number of years can be calculated using growth rate formula

yf = yi ( 1 + r) ^ t where yf is the final population, yi is the initial population, r is the rate in % and t is the number of years

yi = 50, yf = 1000, r = 10% and t = ?

substitute the values into the formula

1000 = 50 ( 1 + (10/100)) ^ t

divide both side by 50

1000/ 50 = 1000/50 ( 1.1) ^t

20 = (1.1) ^t

take log of both side

log 20 = t log 1.1  ( remember log a^b = b log a)

divide both side by log 1.1

log 20 / log 1.1 = t

t = 31.43 years

ElenaW [278]

Based on the amount you pay now and the increase in insurance premiums, your annual insurance costs next year would be $6,325.

<h3>What is the next insurance cost next year?</h3>

The annual cost of insurance refers to the amount that is paid in premiums in a year.

That cost is currently $5,500 but will increase by 15%.

= Current insurance cost x ( 1 + rate of increase)

Solving gives:

= 5,500 x ( 1 + 15%)

= $6,325

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

D. Market maturity

Explanation:

Over the past several years, like other auto manufacturers, General Motors (GM) has introduced many new models of sport utility vehicles (SUVs) in all of its major divisions. This proliferation of SUVs and an increase in gasoline prices have caused sales to level off. In response, General Motors offered rebates of up to $5,000, or no-interest financing, on selected models of SUVs. The largest rebates went to current owners of GM vehicles, so that they would replace their current vehicles with a GM model instead of switching to another brand. The rebates have been heavily advertised on national television. Profit margins per vehicle have shrunk as a result of these costly promotions.

General Motors is currently operating in the Market maturity stage of production life cycle.
