Answer:
It will take an interest rate of 8.1% to get 150% of the initial investment in just 5 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the formula for continuous compounding
where r stands for the (annual) interest rate, t for time in years, P for the initial principal (investment) and X is the amount after t years.
(this formula can be beautifully derived from just basic considerations, btw)
We are given t=5, and percent increase on the initial P, so we can solve for r
It will take an interest rate of 8.1% to get 150% of the initial investment in just 5 years.
For f(x) = 12/(1+x²), and subinterval width 4, you are to evaluate f(1), f(5), and f(9) and combine them according to the rule
... Integral ≈ (4/3)(f(1) + 4·f(5) + f(9)) = (4/3)(6.0000 + 4·0.4615 + 0.1463) ≈ 10.66
_____
Simpson's rule has you combine values of f(x) with coefficients 1, 4, 2, 4, ..., 2, 4, 1, where those values are evenly spaced at the edges of an even number of subintervals. Since we have only 3 values to combine, there are no terms that have a coefficient of 2. The entire sum is multiplied by 1/3 the subinterval width.
Remember, the volume formula of a sphere is 
.
Set that equation equal to whatever volume they give you and solve for r.
= 
Now solve for r! I know you can do this. If you need help, just comment.
