compound interest equation for annually compounded

A=P(1+r)^t

A=final amount

P=principal

r=rate in decimal

t=time in years


given that

A=1550

P=1000

r=5.5%=0.055

find t


1550=1000(1+0.055)^t

divide both sides by 1000

1.55=1.055^t

take ln of both sides

ln(1.55)=ln(1.055^t)

use ln rule ln(a^b)=b(ln(a))

ln(1.55)=t(ln(1.055))

divide both sides by ln(1.055)

\frac{ln(1.55)}{ln(1.055)}=t

using a calculator, we get that t=8.18544 yrs

so about 8.2yrs

3/5 +9/10= Please answer<br>​
Art [367]

Answer:

3/2 or 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply 3/5 by 2 to make the denominator of both fractions equal.

2 x 3/5 = 6/10

Now that the denominators are equal, add the two fractions together

6/10 + 9/10 = 15/10 = 3/2 or 1.5

The measure of the second angle of a triangle is twice as large as the measure of the first measure of the third angle is 30° le
Alex777 [14]

Applying the triangle sum theorem, we have:

First angle measure = 35°

Second angle = 70°

Third angle = 75°

<h3>What is the Triangle Sum Theorem?</h3>

According to the triangle sum theorem, all angles in a triangle will give a sum of 180 degrees.

First angle measure = x

Second angle = 2x

Third angle = (2x + x) - 30 = 3x - 30

x + 2x + 3x - 30 = 180 [triangle sum theorem]

6x - 30 = 180

6x = 180 + 30

6x = 210

x = 210/6

x = 35

First angle measure = x = 35°

Second angle = 2x = 2(35) = 70°

Third angle = 3x - 30 = 3(35) - 30 = 75°
