formula is A=P(1-\frac{r}{n})^{nt}

where A=final amount

P=principal

r=interest rate in decimal

n=number of times per year it is compounded

t=time in years


we want to find where

A=2P

and P=5745

and r=6.5%=0.065

n=monthly=12


remember that ln(x^a)=a(ln(x))

also that (a^b)^c=a^{bc}

2(5745)=5745(1+\frac{0.065}{12})^{12t}, solving for t

divide both sides by 5745 to simplify things a bit

2=(1+\frac{0.065}{12})^{12t} I'd rather not simplify this because it give us a decimals and those aren't exact, if we combine, we get 12.065/12 for inside parenthases

2=(\frac{12.065}{12})^{12t}

take ln of both sides

ln(2)=ln((\frac{12.065}{12})^{12t})

ln(2)=(12t)ln(\frac{12.065}{12})

divide both sides by 12ln(\frac{12.065}{12})

\frac{ln(2)}{12ln(\frac{12.065}{12})}=t

using our calculator, t≈10.6927


so rounded, we get 10.7 years

When the p-value is used for hypothesis testing, the null hypothesis is rejected if _____
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are to give the reason why we would reject the null hypothesis during the hypothesis testing.

In considering whether to accept the null hypothesis or reject the null hypothesis, we have to take into consideration two things.

The p-value and the alpha value. The p-value refers to the probability which is directly obtainable from the standard score which is referred to as the z-score while the alpha refers to the level of significance.

Now, when the p-value is less than alpha, we simply reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternative hypothesis. In a case however, we have the value of p greater than or equal to the significance level alpha, we simply accept the null hypothesis in this case.

The question asks for a rejection case and this can happen only when the p-value is less than the level of significance alpha
