Answer: option B

This is because you have to work out the range of both periods

The range is the highest number - the lowest number

Range for period 1: 92-81=11
Range for period 3:92-74=18

As you can see the range for period 3 is 7 points greater than period 1 therefore the answer is the second option ( option B)

Hope this helped

How long will it take to have R30 000 for a trip to Europe if I invest R20 000 now at 15% per year, compounded quarterly?

Compound interest formula

$A=P(1+ \frac{r}{n} )^{nt}$

Where

A= Future value
P = the Principal (the initial amount of money)
r = annual interest rate

t = time

n= number of times compounded in one t

Remark
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

r is generally a percentage like 3%, 7% etc and are applied in the formula as 0.03, 0.07...,

the interest is compounded generally annually (n=1), quarterly (n=4), monthly (n=12), etc...

t is in years,

In our problem:

A= 30 000

P =20 000

r = 15%=0.15

time = t = ?

n= 4

applying the formula:

$A=P(1+ \frac{r}{n} )^{nt}\\\\30,000=20,000(1+ \frac{0.15}{4} )^{4t}\\\\ \displaystyle{\frac{30,000}{20,000} =(1.0375)^{4t}$

$\displaystyle{ 1.5={(1.0375^4)}^t\\\\$

$1.5=1.159^t\\\\ \displaystyle { t=log_{1.159}1.5=2.75$
