Answer:
5.93 years
Step-by-step explanation:
The continuous compounding formula tells you the amount after t years will be ...
A = Pe^(rt) . . . . principal P compounded continuously at annual rate r for t years
7400 = 5500e^(0.05t)
ln(7400/5500) = 0.05t . . . . divide by 5500, take natural logs
t = 20×ln(74/55) ≈ 5.93
It will take about 5.93 years for $5500 to grow to $7400.

Answer:
Average rate of change is <u>0.80.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
The two points given are (5, 6) and (15, 14).
Average rate of change is the ratio of the overall change in 'y' and overall change in 'x'. If the overall change in 'y' is positive with 'x', then average rate of change is also positive and vice-versa.
The average rate of change for two points
is given as:

Plug in
and solve for 'R'. This gives,

Therefore, the average rate of change for the points (5, 6) and (15, 14) is 0.80.
