\bf \qquad \qquad \textit{Future Value of an ordinary annuity}

\\\\\\


\bf A=5280\left[ \cfrac{\left( 1+\frac{0.06}{1} \right)^{1\cdot  4}-1}{\frac{0.06}{1}} \right]

Joe is making $485 payments monthly, but the amount gets interest on a yearly basis, not monthly, so the amount that yields interest is 485*12

also, keep in mind, we're assuming is compound interest, as opposed to simple interest

What is the solution to log (9x)-log 3 = 3?
xeze [42]

Answer:

The solution x = \frac{e^{3} }{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1</u>:-

Given log(9 x) -log 3 =3

we have to use formula  log a-log b=log\frac{a}{b}

log(9 x)- log 3 = log(\frac{9 x}{3} ) =3

Again by using formula log a =b

                                       a = e^{b}

so \frac{9 x}{3} =e^{3}

<u>step 2:</u>-

   3 x = e^{3}

  x = \frac{e^{3} }{3}

The solution of given problem is x=\frac{e^3}{3}

The variable y is directly proportional to the variable x. If y = 32 when x = 20, what is the value of x when y = 40?
elena55 [62]

Answer:

The Correct option is C ) 25

Therefore the value of x is 25 when y =40.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Variable 'y' is directly proportional to the variable 'x'.

\therefore y=kx     ......Direct Variation

Where,

k = Constant of proportionality

To Find:

value of x = ? when y = 40

Solution:

First we need to find Constant of proportionality

When x = 20 and y = 32

Substituting the values we get

32=k\times 20\\k=\dfrac{32}{20}=1.6\\\\k=1.6

Now when k =1.6 , y = 40 then x will be

40=1.6\times x\\\\x=\dfrac{40}{1.6}=25\\\\x=25

Therefore the value of x is 25 when y =40.
