On Saturday he will have 36 ducks and the pattern is multiplying by 2 for each number

The pattern is:     Ducks always swim on that pond <em><u>in powers of 2</u></em> .

Monday ........ 2⁰ =  1
Tuesday ........ 2¹ =  2
Wednesday ... 2² =  4
Thursday ....... 2³ =  8

So
Friday ........... 2⁴ =  16
<em>Saturday ...... 2⁵ =  32</em>        <=== the answer  

AND ...
If they kept doing this for a month, then
on the 31st day there would be

       2³⁰ = <em>1,073,741,824</em> (more than 1 billion) ducks out there !

Answer:

83°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since angle x and angle y are supplementary angles,

x + y = 180°.

Since y = 97°

x = 180° - y = 180° - 97° = 83°

A sum of money is invested at 12% compounded quarterly. About how long will it take for the amount of money to double?
Fofino [41]
Follow the given formula.  The initial amount of money invested, P, becomes 2P (same thing as "doubles) after t years.  Since compounding is quarterly, n=4.  The annual interest rate is 12%.  That is, r=0.12.

Then we have 2P = P (1 + 0.12/4)^(4t) and need only solve for time, t.

Simplifying the above equation:  2 = (1.03)^(4t)

We must isolate 4t, and then isolate t.  To do this, take the common log of both sides of the above equation.  We get:

log 2 = (4t) log 1.03.  This gives us 4t = [log 2] / [log 1.03], or

4t =  23.4498

Dividing both sides by 4, we get     t = 5.86 (years).
