<span>25.7 years
The rule of 72 is a simple approximation on how long it will take to double your money. You simply divide 72 by the interest rate and you'll have your estimate on the number of years it will take. So
72 / 2.8 = 25.7 years.
To demonstrate that it's just an estimate, you can take the log of 2 and divide by the log of 1.028 to get the exact value. This far more complicated calculation gives the result of 25.1 years. And to be honest, the estimate of 25.7 years is more than close enough for such an quick and easy rule of thumb.</span>
I think the answer is B. because it says "waste of time"
I would say you are more likely to have complex roots. If you think of graphs of polynomials, if you draw a function that doesn't pass through the x-axis, all roots are complex.
If there are 128 fluid ounces per US gallon, and there are 3 gallons, 3x128=384. The teacher brought 384 fluid ounces of juice on the feild trip.
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 3x² - 2x + 7
f(-2) = 3(-2)² -2(-2) + 7
= 3(4) + 4 + 7
= 23
