<span>Annual = Years = 6.64; Actually 7 years Monthly = Years = 6.33; 6 Years, 4 months Daily = Years = 6.30; 6 Years, 111 days Continuously = 6.30; 6 Years, 110 days The formula for compound interest is FV = P*(1 + R/n)^(nt) where FV = Future Value P = Principle R = Annual interest rate n = number of periods per year t = number of years For this problem, we can ignore p and concentrate on the (1+R/n)^(nt) term, looking for where it becomes 2. So let's use this simplified formula: 2 = (1 + R/n)^(nt) With R, n, and t having the same meaning as in the original formula. For for the case of compounding annually 2 = (1 + R/n)^(nt) 2 = (1 + 0.11/1)^(1t) 2 = (1.11)^t The above equation is effectively asking for the logarithm of 2 using a base of 1.11. To do this take the log of 2 and divide by the log of 1.11. So log(2) / log(1.11) = 0.301029996 / 0.045322979 = 6.641884618 This explanation of creating logarithms to arbitrary bases will not be repeated for the other problems. The value of 6.641884618 indicates that many periods is needed. 6 is too low giving an increase of 1.11^6 =1.870414552 and 7 is too high, giving an increase of 1.11^7 = 2.076160153 But for the purpose of this problem, I'll say you double your money after 7 years. For compounding monthly: 2 = (1 + R/n)^(nt) 2 = (1 + 0.11/12)^(12t) 2 = (1 + 0.009166667)^(12t) 2 = 1.009166667^(12t) log(2)/log(1.009166667) = 0.301029996 / 0.003962897 = 75.96210258 And since the logarithm is actually 12*t, divide by 12 75.96210258 / 12 = 6.330175215 Which is 6 years and 4 months. For compounding daily: 2 = (1 + 0.11/365)^(365t) 2 = (1 + 0.00030137)^(365t) 2 = 1.00030137^(365t) log(2)/log(1.00030137) = 0.301029996 / 0.000130864 = 2300.334928 2300.334928 / 365 = 6.302287474 Continuously: For continuous compounding, there's a bit of calculus required and the final formula is FV = Pe^(rt) where FV = Future value P = Principle e = mathematical constant e. Approximately 2.718281828 r = Interest rate t = time in years Just as before, we'll simplify the formula and use 2 = e^(rt) Since we have the function ln(x) which is the natural log of x, I won't bother doing log conversions. rt = ln(2) 0.11 * t = 0.693147181 t = 0.693147181 / 0.11 t = 6.301338005</span>

Explain how depth affects oxygen content in ocean water.
stira [4]

Explanation:

Ocean warming-driven deoxygenation: Warmer ocean water holds less oxygen and is more buoyant than cooler water. This leads to reduced mixing of oxygenated water near the surface with deeper waters, which naturally contain less oxygen. Warmer water also raises oxygen demand from living organisms.

At the beginning of this year, daily consumption of gasoline in the US amounted to 344 million gallons. It is estimated that for
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

335.43 million gallons

Explanation:

price elasticity of demand (PED) = % change in quantity demanded / % change in price

PED = -1.9% / 10% = -0.19, very inelastic

expected price increase $0.40

% change in price = ($3.45 - $3.05) / $3.05 = 13.11%

% change in quantity demanded:

-0.19 = D / 13.11%

D = 2.49%

quantity demanded will decrease by 2.49%, from 344 million gallons to 335.43 million gallons
