This is an exponential decay problem.
Using the equation Y = a *(1-rate)^time
where Y is the future value given as 12,000 and a is the starting value given as 13,000.
The rate is also given as 5%.
The equation becomes:
12,000 = 13,000(1-0.05)^x
12,000 = 13,000(0.95)^x
Divide each side by 13000:
12000/13000 = 0.95^x/13000
12/13 = 0.95^x
Use the natural log function:
x = ln(12/13) / ln(0.95)
x = 1.56 years. ( this will equal 12,000
Round to 2 years it will be less than 12000.
The answer would be B. b = 8 * 4. If Joan picked 4 bushels of apples in an hour and the question wants to know how many bushels could be picked in 8 hours, its basically asking how many bushels are in 8 groups of 4.
Answer: -5/21
Step-by-step explanation:
-3/7 & -4/6
common detonator is 42
-3/7 = -18/42 reduced to -9/21
-4/6 = -28/42 reduced to -14/21
difference between -9/21 and -14/21 = -5/21
Answer:
The scale factor is 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The width of A is 1, the width of B is 3
the length of A is 3, the length of B is 9 so the scale factor from A to B is 3
