Summarizing the question,
Principle(P)=$100
Rate (r)=12%=0.12
Amount (A)=3×P=$300
Time=t=?
n=no of times the interest is compouned per year=4
Then,
A=P{(1+r/n)}^(n×t)
or,300=100×{1+0.12/4}^(4×t)
or,300/100=(1+0.03)^(4×t)
or,3=1.03^(4×t)
Taking log on both sides,
log3=log[(1.03)^(4×t)]
or,log3= (4×t)×log(1.03)
or,4t=log3/log(1.03)
or,t=log3/[4×log(1.03)]
or, t=9.29175...
t=9.3 years ANS!!!

Erika worked 14 hours last week and 20 hours this week. If she earns $9 per hour, how much did she earn during these two weeks?
ozzi

we know that

Erika earns \$9 per hour

so

By proportion

Find how much she earn during the total hours of two weeks

The total hours of two weeks is equal to

14+20=34\ hours

\frac{9}{1} \frac{\$}{hour} =\frac{x}{34} \frac{\$}{hours} \\ \\x=34*9 \\ \\x=\$306

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

\$306

Angles α and β are angles in standard position such that: α terminates in Quadrant I and sinα = 3/5 β terminates in Quadrant III
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

-16/65

Step-by-step explanation:

Given sinα = 3/5 in quadrant 1;

Since  sinα = opp/hyp

opp = 3

hyp = 5

adj^2 = hyp^2 - opp^2

adj^2 = 5^2 = 3^2

adj^2 = 25-9

adj^2 = 16

adj = 4

Since all the trig identity are positive in Quadrant 1, hence;

cosα = adj/hyp = 4/5

Similarly, if tanβ = 5/12 in Quadrant III,

According to trig identity

tan theta = opp/adj

opp = 5

adj = 12

hyp^2 = opp^2+adj^2

hyp^2 = 5^2+12^2

hyp^2 = 25+144

hyp^2 = 169

hyp = 13

Since only tan is positive in Quadrant III, then;

sinβ = -5/13

cosβ = -12/13

Get the required expression;

sin(α - β) = sinαcosβ - cosαsinβ

Substitute the given values

sin(α - β) = 3/5(-12/13) - 4/5(-5/13)

sin(α - β)= -36/65 + 20/65

sin(α - β) = -16/65

Hence the value of sin(α - β) is -16/65

In a certain region, the number of children who have been vaccinated against rubella is twice the number who have been vaccinate
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

C. 10 000

Step-by-step explanation:

If we called:

x = children who have been vacinated against rubella only

2x = children who have been vaccinated against mumps

y = children who have been vaccinated agains both

Children who have been vaccinated against mumps only = x - y

And we know that y = 2*(x-y)

=> 2y = 3x

y = 5000

There fore x = 7500

The number of children who have been vaccinated against rubella

= 2x - y = 2*7500 - 5000 = 15 000 - 5000 = 10 000
