Answer:

13.6 years

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question;

  • Money invested (Principal) is 7500 dollars
  • Rate of interest is 4% compounded annually
  • Amount, (money accrued ) is 12800 dollars

We are needed to determine the time it took for the money to reach the given amount;

  • To solve the question we need to know the compound interest formula, that is;

A=P(1-\frac{r}{100})^n

Where n is the interest periods;

  • Therefore, substituting the variables with the corresponding values, we can determine n.

Therefore;

12800=7500(1-\frac{4}{100})^n

Dividing both sides by 7500, we get;

1.7067=(1-\frac{4}{100})^n

1.7067=(1.04)^n

Introducing logarithms on both sides;

log1.7067=log(1.04)^n\\nlog1.04=log1.7067\\n=\frac{log1.7067}{log1.04} \\n=13.63

Thus, n=13.6 years

Thus, it would take 13.6 years for the invested money to accumulate to 12800 dollars

-5/12-(-9/3) Reduce to simplest form
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

2 7/12

Step-by-step explanation:

−512−−93=?

Since the the second fraction is negative and you are subtracting, remove the negative sign and switch the operation to addition.

The equivalent equation is

−512+93=?

The fractions have unlike denominators. First, find the Least Common Denominator and rewrite the fractions with the common denominator.

LCD(-5/12, 9/3) = 12

Multiply both the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the number that makes its denominator equal the LCD. This is basically multiplying each fraction by 1.

(−5/12×1/1)+(9/3×4/4)=?

Complete the multiplication and the equation becomes

−5/12+36/12=?

The two fractions now have like denominators so you can subtract the numerators.

Then:

−5+36/12=31/12

This fraction cannot be reduced.

The fraction

31/12

is the same as

31÷12

Convert to a mixed number using

long division for 31 ÷ 12 = 2R7, so

31/12=2 7/12

Therefore:

−5/12−−9/3=2 7/12

Answer:

161 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 115 cm is 5 boxes, we take 115 and divide it by 5. This will get us the cm of 1 box. 115/5=23

Now we take 23 and multiply it by 7 to get the final height. 23x7=161
