10^-8 would be .000000001 I believe lightning would be the correct answer because .00000001 is bigger than 10^-8 hope this is correct

A person invests $1,150 in an account that earns 5% annual interest compounded continuously. Find when the value of the investme
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

11.1 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for interest compounding continuously is:

A(t)=Pe^{rt}

Where A(t) is the amount after the compounding, P is the initial deposit, r is the interest rate in decimal form, and t is the time in years.  Filling in what we have looks like this:

2000=1150e^{{.05t}

We will simplify this first a bit by dividing 2000 by 1150 to get

1.739130435=e^{.05t}

To get that t out the exponential position it is currently in we have to take the natural log of both sides.  Since a natural log has a base of e, taking the natual log of e cancels both of them out.  They "undo" each other, for lack of a better way to explain it.  That leaves us with

ln(1.739130435)=.05t

Taking the natural log of that decimal on our calculator gives us

.5533852383=.05t

Now divide both sides by .05 to get t = 11.06770477 which rounds to 11.1 years.

jasenka [17]
Each cow eats 12 pounds then 24 will eat 288 pounds so to know how many days it will last we will divide 10656 by 288 which is 37

so it will last for 37 days.

Write the equation of a line through points (5,5) and (1, 0) in point-slope form?
algol [13]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I’m assuming that the equation is to be written in slope intercept form (y=mx+b), so for this, you want to find the slope and y-intercept. To find the slope, use the equation in picture 1.

0 - 5 = -5

1 - 5 = -4

-5 / -4 = 1.25

So m, or the slope, is equal to 1.25.

To find the y-intercept, make a table like the second picture. Choose one of the ordered pairs as the given. I used 1,0.

0,?

1,0

Now find the change in x, which in this case, is 1. Then set up something like picture three.

1.25/1 = ?/1

?=1.25

Now backtrack to get:

0, -1.25

1, 0

Now we know what is y when x is 0, we know the y intercept and can make the equation:

y = 1.25x - 1.25
