Answer:

The capital will first exceed RM 10 000 after 12 complete years.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a compound interest problem.

The compound interest formula is given by:

A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}

Where A is the amount of money, P is the principal(the initial sum of money), r is the interest rate(as a decimal value), n is the number of times that interest is compounded per unit t and t is the time the money is invested or borrowed for.

In this exercise, we have:

So, for our problem, we have:

We first want to find t, when A = 10,000, given that P = 5,000, n = 1 and r = 0.06.

A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}

10,000 = 5,000(1 + \frac{0.06}{1})^{t}

1.06^{t} = 2

Now we apply log to both sides. Important to remember the following proprierty:

\log{a^{b}} = b\log{a}

\log{1.06^{t}} = \log{2}

t\log{1.06} = \log{2}

t = \frac{\log{2}}{\log{1.06}}

t = 11.9

11.9 years is 11 years and some 330 days. The next complete year will be the 12th year.

The capital will first exceed RM 10 000 after 12 complete years.

The length of the garden is 10 feet more than twice its width. The perimeter of the garden is 170 feet.
icang [17]

Answer:

The width of the garden is 25 feet

The length of the garden is 60 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle

= P = 2L + 2W

Where L = Length, W = Width

The length of the garden is 10 feet more than twice its width.

P = 170

L = 2W + 10

Hence,

170 = 2(2W + 10) + 2W

170 = 4W + 20 + 2W

Collect like terms

170 - 20 = 6W

150 = 6W

W = 150/6

W = 25 feet

The width of the garden is 25 feet

Remember

L = 2W + 10

L = 2(25) + 10

L = 50 + 10

L = 60 feet

The length of the garden is 60 feet

The answer to the question below is 8/15 right?
ioda
When you have something like this, to simplify the exponent you multiply them together, so the exponent is 1/3 x 1/5. 
1/3 x 1/5 is 1/15, so the simplified expression is: 
m^{ \frac{1}{15} } 
Hope this helps!

3. Connie bought several types of candy for Halloween: Milky Ways, Tootsie Rolls,
devlian [24]

Answer:

Tootsie Rolls = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Milky Ways and Tootsie Rolls together were 15 more than the number of Reese's Cups.

There were 4 fewer Reese's Cups than Hershey Bars.

There were 12 Milky Ways and 14 Hershey Bars.

Solution

Milky Ways and Tootsie Rolls = Reese's Cups + 15

There were 4 fewer Reese's Cups than Hershey Bars.

Hershey Bars = 14

Then,

Reese's Cups = 14 - 4

= 10

Milky ways = 12

Hershey bars = 14

Reese's Cups = 10

Milky ways = 12

Milky Ways + Tootsie Rolls = Reese's Cups + 15

12 + Tootsie Rolls = 10 + 15

12 + Tootsie Rolls = 25

Subtract 12 from both sides

Tootsie Rolls = 25 - 12

= 13

Tootsie Rolls = 13

Look at the graph of the linear function. On a coordinate plane, a line goes through 4 points. Point A is (negative 2, negative
kondor19780726 [428]

Using it's concept, the rate of change between point C and point D is of 2.

<h3>What is the average rate of change of a function?</h3>

The average rate of change of a function is given by the <u>change in the output divided by the change in the input</u>. Hence, over an interval [a,b], the rate is given as follows:

r = \frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a}

Considering the points of the given linear function, we have that:

  • Point C: f(1) = 2.
  • Point D: f(2) = 4.

Hence the rate of change between point C and point D is given by:

r = (4 - 2)/(2 - 1) = 2.
