Let the principal be 'x' then the Amount will be 4x.

As the interest is compounded monthly:

Rate of interest = 10.1 % = 10.1/(100*12) = 0.101/12 

Time = 12t

Amount = Principal[1 + Rate/100]

⇒ 4x = x[1 + 0.101/12]¹²t

⇒ 4x/x [1 + 0.008416667]¹²t

⇒ 4 = [1.008416667]¹²t

⇒ log(4) = log[1.008416667]¹²t

⇒ 0.602059991327 = [0.003640014891]¹²t

⇒ 12t = 0.602059991327/0.003640014891

⇒ 12t = 165.400419876

⇒ t = 165.400419876/12

t = 13.78 years  or 13 years 9 months.

So, it is about 13 years 9 months she will have 4 times the amount of money.

Which is equivalent to RootIndex 3 StartRoot 8 EndRoot Superscript one-fourth x?
Nat2105 [25]
<h3>Answer: Choice C</h3>

RootIndex 12 StartRoot 8 EndRoot Superscript x

12th root of 8^x = (12th root of 8)^x

\sqrt[12]{8^{x}} = \left(\sqrt[12]{8}\right)^{x}

=========================================

Explanation:

The general rule is

\sqrt[n]{x} = x^{1/n}

so any nth root is the same as having a fractional exponent 1/n.

Using that rule we can say the cube root of 8 is equivalent to 8^(1/3)

\sqrt[3]{8} = 8^{1/3}

-----

Raising this to the power of (1/4)x will have us multiply the exponents of 1/3 and (1/4)x like so

(1/3)*(1/4)x = (1/12)x

In other words,

\left(8^{1/3}\right)^{(1/4)x} = 8^{(1/3)*(1/4)x}

\left(8^{1/3}\right)^{(1/4)x} = 8^{(1/12)x}

-----

From here, we rewrite the fractional exponent 1/12 as a 12th root. which leads us to this

8^{(1/12)x} = \sqrt[12]{8^{x}}

8^{(1/12)x} = \left(\sqrt[12]{8}\right)^{x}

For a direct variation describe how the constant of variation affects whether y increases or decreases as x increases
Goryan [66]
Direct variation is of the form: y=kx  (inverse variation is of the form y=k/x)

Assuming that k is positive :)

y increases as x increases and y decreases as x decreases.  There is a direct ratio that is described by k.  k=y/x.

(PLEASE HELP!!) Use the following diagram to answer the questions.
monitta

Answer:

x:

5x - 29 = 3x+ 19

2x = 48

x = 24°

Angle 1:

180 - (3x+7) = 180 - 79 = 101°

Angle 2:

3x + 7 = 79°

Angle 3:

Same as Angle 1 = 101°

Angle 4:

Same as Angle 1 = 101°

Angle 5:

Same as Angle 2 = 79°

Angle 6:

Same as Angle 5 = 79°

Angle 7:

180 - (5x - 29) = 180 - 91 = 89°

Angle 8:

Same as Angle 7 = 89°

Angles 2 and 3 are Supplementary angles
