Answer:

It'll take 38.3 years to obtain the desired return of $25,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve a continuosly coumponded interest question we need to apply the correct formula that is given bellow:

M = C*e^(r*t)

Where M is the final value, C is the initial value, r is the interest rate and t is the time at which the money was applied. Since he wants an return of $25,000 his final value must be the sum of the initial value with the desired return. So we have:

(25000 + 8000) = 8000*e^(0.037*t)

33000 = 8000*e^(0.037*t)

e^(0.037*t) = 33000/8000

e^(0.037*t) = 4.125

ln[e^(0.037*t)] = ln(4.125)

t = ln(4.125)/(0.037)

t = 1.4171/0.037 = 38.2991

t = 38.3 years

Using a straightedge draw a random triangle now carefully cut it out next amputate the angles by snipping through adjacents side
Nezavi [6.7K]
This is usually used as a proof that triangles have 180°.  Look at the attached figures.  If you cut off angle A, angle B and angle C and rotate them so that their vertices touch, you form a half-circle out of them (or a straight line).  We know that half a circle is 1/2 of 360° or 180; therefore all 3 angles in a triangle must add up to 180°.

What is the percent decrease from 60 to 39?
IrinaK [193]
X - the percent decrease

60-60x=39 \ \ \ |-60 \\
-60x=-21 \ \ \ |\div (-60) \\
x=\frac{-21}{-60} \\ \Downarrow \\ x=\frac{-21}{-60}=\frac{-21 \div (-3)}{-60 \div (-3)}=\frac{7}{20}=\frac{7 \times 5}{20 \times 5}=\frac{35}{100}=35\%

It's a 35% decrease.
