The variables x and y are inversely proportional, and y=2 when x=3. What is the value of y when x=9?

If x is inversely proportional to y, then:

x=k/y.

When y=2, x=3.

3=k/2, therefore k=6.

So, x=k/y is in fact x=6/y.

When x=9:

9=6/y

9y=6

y=6/9=2/3.

x = z / y

when x = 3, y = 2

3 = z / 2
z = 6

when x = 9, z = 6 

9 = 6 / y

y = 6 / 9 = 2 / 3 Answer

Olivia invested $2,400 in an account paying an interest rate of 4.6\% compounded continuously. Assuming no deposits or withdrawa

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

8.5

Step-by-step explanation:

For continuous compounding, the account value formula is ...

A = Pe^(rt)

where P is the invested amount, r is the annual interest rate, and t is the number of years. We want to find t when ...

3550 = 2400e^(.046t)

ln(355/240) = 0.046t

t = ln(355/240)/0.046 ≈ 8.5

It will take 8.5 years for the value to reach $3550.
