For this case we have a function of the form:
 y = A * (b) ^ x

 Where,
 A: initial amount
 b: growth rate
 x: time in years
 Substituting values we have:
 y = 1600 * (1,042) ^ x

 For the moment when the value of Cate's stock is $ 2000 we have:
 2000 = 1600 * (1,042) ^ x

 From here, we clear x:
 (1,042) ^ x = 2000/1600

log1.042 ((1.042) ^ x) = log1.042 (2000/1600)
 x = log1.042 (2000/1600)

x = 5.4 years
 Answer:
 
the value of Cate's stock will be about $ 2000 in:
 
x = 5.4 years

In circle B with the measure of minor arc AC= 84°, find m
ELEN [110]

Answer:

m<ADC = 42°

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the inscribed angle theorem, the inscribed angle, m<ADC is ½ the measure of minor arc AC.

If minor arc is given as 84°, therefore:

m<ADC = ½(84)

m<ADC = 42°
