Answer:

Time in months ≈ 16 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Principal Amount = $500

Interest Rate = 6.5%

Amount = $543

n = Number of times the interest is compounded

⇒ n = 12 ( because given that the interest is compounded continuously)

We need to calculate Time in months :

Amount=Principal\times (1+\frac{Rate}{100\times n})^{Time\times n}\\\\\implies 543 = 500\times (1+\frac{6.5}{100\times 12})^{12\times Time}\\\\\implies 1.086=(1.0054)^{12\times Time}\\\\\text{Taking log on both the sides}\\\\\implies \log1.086 = 12\times Time \times \log 1.0054\\\\\implies 12 \times Time=15.32\\\\\implies Time = 1.28\:\:years

So, Time in months = 1.28 × 12

                                  ≈ 16 months

The formula is
A=pe^(r×t/12)
A future value 543
P present value 500
R interest rate 0.065
E constant
T time t ( in months)

Solve the formula for t
T/12=[log (A/p)÷log (e)]÷r
T/12=(log(543÷500)÷log(e))÷0.065
T/12=1.3
T=1.3×12
T=15 months

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

5 − 3 x = x + 1

 Move all terms containing  x  to the left side of the equation.

5 − 4 x = 1

Move all terms not containing  x  to the right side of the equation. − 4 x = − 4

Divide each term by  − 4  and simplify.

You Will Add Up All The Number Then Divide By The Total Number You Have In All
The Mean Is 185
You Put All The Number In Order For The Median
