Hi there!

The correct answer is 6.25 times.

This is how you get there:

1) First off, you are going to need to have the same unit (either cm or mm). I used millimeters for this problem. 25cm=250mm

2) This next part is very easy to get wrong. You need to figure out what you are dividing, and by what. Simply look at the problem. <span><em>"How much longer is the guinea pig than her fish?" </em>This shows what numbers you should be getting. The guinea pig is 250mm long, where the fish is only 40. This means that her guinea pig should be larger. 250÷40=6.25

If you did this problem the other way, you would've ended up with .16. If you put the sizes into perspective, you will notice that this is highly unlikely.

I hope that I have been able to simplify this problem for you!

Answer:

x=35.35

Step-by-step explanation:

If you multiply \frac{x}{10.1} .1 by 10.1 that will cancel out the 10.1s, then since you multiplies one side of the equation by something you have to multiply the other too.  So 3.5*10.1 = 35.35.  Then since the 10.1s canceled out this leaves us with x=35.35.  Let me know if you need any more help.

You have been told that you need $21,600 today in order to have $100,000 when you retire 42 years from now. what rate of interes
Savatey [412]
You will have to use this formula:
<span>log(1 + rate) = {log(total) -log(Principal)} ÷ Years
</span>log(1 + rate) = {log(100,000) -log(21,600)} <span>÷ </span><span>Years
</span>log(1 + rate) = { 5 -4.3344537512} / Years
log(1 + rate) = <span> <span> <span> { 0.6655462488} / 42
</span></span></span>log(1 + rate) = <span> <span> <span> 0.0158463393 </span> </span> </span>
1 + rate = 10^<span> <span> 0.015846339
</span></span><span>1 + rate = </span>1.0371613856
rate = .0371613856<span>
rate = </span><span>3.71613856%

</span>************************************************************************
Double-Check
Total = principal * (1 +rate)^years
Total = 21,600 * (<span>1.0371613856)^42
</span> <span>Total = 21,600 * </span> <span> <span> <span> 4.6296296291 </span> </span> </span> <span><span> </span> </span> 
Total = 100,000

Correct !!
