2x - 5 = 8 Add 5 on both sides

2x - 5 + 5 = 8 + 5

2x = 13 Divide 2 on both sides to get "x" by itself

x = $\frac{13}{2}$

So addition and division

Money Flow The rate of a continuous money flow starts at $1000 and increases exponentially at 5% per year for 4 years. Find the

77julia77 [94]

Answer:

Present value = $4,122.4

Accumulated amount = $4,742

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Amount at the Start of money flow = $1,000

Increase in amount is exponentially at the rate of 5% per year

Time = 4 years

Interest rate = 3.5% compounded continuously

Now,

Accumulated Value of the money flow = $1000e^{0.05t}$

The present value of the money flow = $\int\limits^4_0 {1000e^{0.05t}(e^{-0.035t})} \, dt$

= $1000\int\limits^4_0 {e^{0.015t}} \, dt$

= $1000\left [\frac{e^{0.015t}}{0.015} \right ]_0^4$

= $1000\times\left [\frac{e^{0.015(4)}}{0.015} -\frac{e^{0.015(0)}}{0.015} \right]$

= 1000 × [70.7891 - 66.6667]

= $4,122.4

Accumulated interest = $e^{rt}\int\limits^4_0 {1000e^{0.05t}(e^{-0.035t}} \, dt$

= $e^{0.035\times4}\times4,122.4$

= $4,742

If AB = 9 and BC = 12 then what is AC?

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

AC = 12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

AB=9 centimeters, you figure out what times what is 9. in this case, it is 3 for A and B. Then you go to BC=12 and 3 for B and 4 for C making it 12 So AC would equal 3x4.
