Answer:

0.01

Steps:

The definition of "reciprocal" is simple. To find the reciprocal of any number, just calculate "1 ÷ (that number)." For a fraction, the reciprocal is just a different fraction, with the numbers "flipped" upside down (inverted). For instance, the reciprocal of 3/4 is 4/3

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

Using continuous interest 6.83 years before she has $1600.

Using continuous compounding, 6.71 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Compound interest:

The compound interest formula is given by:

$A(t) = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}$

Where A(t) is the amount of money after t years, P is the principal(the initial sum of money), r is the interest rate(as a decimal value), n is the number of times that interest is compounded per unit year and t is the time in years for which the money is invested or borrowed.

Continuous compounding:

The amount of money earned after t years in continuous interest is given by:

$P(t) = P(0)e^{rt}$

In which P(0) is the initial investment and r is the interest rate, as a decimal.

If Tanisha has $1000 to invest at 7% per annum compounded semiannually, how long will it be before she has $1600?

We have to find t for which $A(t) = 1600$ when $P = 1000, r = 0.07, n = 2$

$A(t) = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}$

$1600 = 1000(1 + \frac{0.07}{2})^{2t}$

$(1.035)^{2t} = \frac{1600}{1000}$

$(1.035)^{2t} = 1.6$

$\log{1.035)^{2t}} = \log{1.6}$

$2t\log{1.035} = \log{1.6}$

$t = \frac{\log{1.6}}{2\log{1.035}}$

$t = 6.83$

Using continuous interest 6.83 years before she has $1600

If the compounding is continuous, how long will it be?

We have that $P(0) = 1000, r = 0.07$

Then

$P(t) = P(0)e^{rt}$

$1600 = 1000e^{0.07t}$

$e^{0.07t} = 1.6$

$\ln{e^{0.07t}} = \ln{1.6}$

$0.07t = \ln{1.6}$

$t = \frac{\ln{1.6}}{0.07}$

$t = 6.71$

Using continuous compounding, 6.71 years.

1. If a scale factor is applied to a figure and all dimensions are changed proportionally, what is the effect on the perimeter o

tester [92]

Answer:

Part 1) The perimeter of the new figure must be equal to the perimeter of the original figure multiplied by the scale factor (see the explanation)

Part 2) The area of the new figure must be equal to the area of the original figure multiplied by the scale factor squared

Part 3) The new figure and the original figure are not similar figures (see the explanation)

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) If a scale factor is applied to a figure and all dimensions are changed proportionally, what is the effect on the perimeter of the figure?

we know that

If all dimensions are changed proportionally, then the new figure and the original figure are similar

When two figures are similar, the ratio of its perimeters is equal to the scale factor

so

The perimeter of the new figure must be equal to the perimeter of the original figure multiplied by the scale factor

Part 2) If a scale factor is applied to a figure and all dimensions are changed proportionally, what is the effect on the area of the figure?

we know that

If all dimensions are changed proportionally, then the new figure and the original figure are similar

When two figures are similar, the ratio of its areas is equal to the scale factor squared

so

The area of the new figure must be equal to the area of the original figure multiplied by the scale factor squared

Part 3) What would happen to the perimeter and area of a figure if the dimensions were changed NON-proportionally? For example, if the length of a rectangle was tripled, but the width did not change? Or if the length was tripled and the width was decreased by a factor of 1/4?

we know that

If the dimensions were changed NON-proportionally, then the ratio of the corresponding sides of the new figure and the original figure are not proportional

That means

The new figure and the original figure are not similar figures

therefore

Corresponding sides are not proportional and corresponding angles are not congruent

so

A) If the length of a rectangle was tripled, but the width did not change?

Perimeter

The original perimeter is P=2L+2W

The new perimeter would be P=2(3L)+2W ----> P=6L+2W

The perimeter of the new figure is greater than the perimeter of the original figure but are not proportionals

Area

The original area is A=LW

The new area would be A=(3L)(W) ----> A=3LW

The area of the new figure is three times the area of the original figure but its ratio is not equal to the scale factor squared, because there is no single scale factor

B) If the length was tripled and the width was decreased by a factor of 1/4?

Perimeter

The original perimeter is P=2L+2W

The new perimeter would be P=2(3L)+2(W/4) ----> P=6L+W/2

The perimeter of the new figure and the perimeter of the original figure are not proportionals

Area

The original area is A=LW

The new area would be A=(3L)(W/4) ----> A=(3/4)LW

The area of the new figure is three-fourth times the area of the original figure but its ratio is not equal to the scale factor squared, because there is no single scale factor
