This is a case of exponential growth.  The appropriate equation, with the given data inserted, is     P(t) = 500 ( 1+0.15)^50

or                                   = 500 (1.15)^50

Evaluate this on your calculator.

800-20 is 780. A third of 780 is 780(1/3) = 260. 780 - 260 = 520. 25% of $520 is 0.25(520) = 130. 520 - 130 = 390. One sixth of 390 is 390(1/6) = 65. 390 - 65 = 325. So, Bob kept $325 for himself.

f is a differentiable function on the interval [0, 1] and g(x) = f(4x). The table below gives values of f '(x). What is the valu
polet [3.4K]

The table is attached in the figure.

    g(x) = f(4x) ⇒⇒⇒ differentiating both sides with respect to x

∴  g'(x) = \frac{d}{dx} [f(x)] * \frac{d}{dx} [4x]=4*f'(x) ⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒ chain role

To find g '(0.1)

Substitute with x = 0.1

from table: 

f'(0.1) = 1 ⇒ from the table

∴  g'(0.1) = 4 * [ f'(0.1) ]  = 4 * 1 = 4
