Answer:
It will take about 35.439 years to triple.
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall the formula for continuously compounded interest:
where "A" is the total (accrued or future) accumulated value, "r" is the rate (in our case 0.031 which is the decimal form of 3.1%), "P" is the principal, and "t" is the time in years (our unknown).
Notice also that even that the final amount we want to get is three times $48,000. So our formula becomes:
Now,in order to solve for "t" (which is in the exponent, we use logarithms:
The table is missing, so i have attached it.
Also, the correct question is;
The surface area of the East China Sea is k times the surface area of the Baltic Sea.
Work out the value of k.
Give your answer to the nearest whole number
Answer:
k = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
From the attached table,
Surface area of east china = 1.25 × 10^(6) km²
Surface area of Baltic sea = 4.22 × 10^(5) km² = 0.422 × 10^(6) km²
We are told that the surface area of East China Sea is k times that of the surface area of the Baltic Sea.
Thus;
1.25 × 10^(6) = k × 0.422 × 10^(6)
k = 1.25/0.422
k = 2.96
Approximating to whole number gives;
k = 3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1,8
5,7
2,3
3x+4x+5x=54
12x=54
x=4.5
Plug in the value of x into all three segments.
AB= 3*4.5= 13.5
BC= 4*4.5= 18
AC= 5*4.5= 22.5
The answer is 1 and I’m sure about that
