Hello!

To find the amount of years it will take for Tina's account to reach $11,900, we need to first, write an equation, then we would solve for the amount of years it would take using logarithms.

1. Write an equation

Since this question is a compound interest problem, we would write the equation in a format like this: y = a(1 + n)^x.

In this equation, y is the final value, a is the beginning value, n is the interest rate, and x is the amount of years. Since we are given the values of y, a, and n, we can substitute those values into the equation.

11900 = 1200(1 + .0625)^x

Notice that 6.25% was converted to 0.0625. To convert percentages to a decimal, divide the percent by 100.

2. Solve for x using logarithms

11900 = 1200(1.0625)^x (divide by 1200 to both sides)

11900/1200 = 1.0625^x (take the log of both sides)

log 11900/1200 = x log 1.0625 (divide both sides by log 1.0625)

log 11900/1200 / log 1.0625 = x

x = 37.8429...

This can be rounded to about 37.84 years.

Therefore, it will take about 37.84 years for Tina's account to reach 11,900 dollars.

PLEASE ANSWER ASAP What does it mean for a scatter plot to have a negative trend?
mestny [16]

Answer:

D: None of these are true

Explanation:

If the points on the scatter plot seem to form a line that slants down from left to right, there is a negative relationship or negative correlation between the variables. If the points on the scatter plot seem to be scattered randomly, there is no relationship or no correlation between the variables

Express secΦ in terms of tanΦ​
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

\sec\theta=\sqrt{1+\tan^2\theta}

Step-by-step explanation:

The trigonometric identity is :

\sec^2\theta-\tan^2\theta=1\\\\or\\\\\sec^2\theta=1+\tan^2\theta

We need to express secθ in terms of tanθ.

The above equation becomes,

\sec\theta=\sqrt{1+\tan^2\theta}

Hence, this is the required solution.

What is the conjecture of 1, 8, 27, 64, __, __, __, __, __, what is the pattern?
NikAS [45]

Answer:

The pattern = 1³, 2³ 3³, 4³, 5³, 6³, 7³, 8³, 9³,

The answer = 1, 8, 27, 64, 125, 216, 343, 512, 729,

Step-by-step explanation:

what is the pattern?

We are given the following sequence:

1, 8, 27, 64, __, __, __, __, __,

Observing the sequence above, for every consecutive natural number

x, x + 1, x + 2, x + 3.......

The above pattern is : the cube of every consecutive natural number. That is: x³, (x + 1)³, (x + 2)³, (x + 3)⁴

1, 8, 27, 64, __, __, __, __, __,

= 1³, 2³ 3³, 4³, 5³, 6³, 7³, 8³, 9³,

Hence, the answer

1, 8, 27, 64, 125, 216, 343, 512, 729,

Use the method of cylindrical shells to find the volume of the solid obtained by rotating the region bounded by the given curves
Vadim26 [7]

The expression on the left side describes a parabola. Factorize it to determine where it crosses the y-axis (i.e. the line x = 0) :

-3y² + 9y - 6 = -3 (y² - 3y + 2)

… = -3 (y - 1) (y - 2) = 0

⇒   y = 1   or   y = 2

Also, complete the square to determine the vertex of the parabola:

-3y² + 9y - 6 = -3 (y² - 3y) - 6

… = -3 (y² - 3y + 9/4 - 9/4) - 6

… = -3 (y² - 2•3/2 y + (3/2)²) + 27/4 - 6

… = -3 (y - 3/2)² + 3/4

⇒   vertex at (x, y) = (3/4, 3/2)

I've attached a sketch of the curve along with one of the shells that make up the solid. For some value of x in the interval 0 ≤ x ≤ 3/4, each cylindrical shell has

radius = x

height = y⁺ - y⁻

where y⁺ refers to the half of the parabola above the line y = 3/2, and y⁻ is the lower half. These halves are functions of x that we obtain from its equation by solving for y :

x = -3y² + 9y - 6

x = -3 (y - 3/2)² + 3/4

x - 3/4 = -3 (y - 3/2)²

-x/3 + 1/4 = (y -  3/2)²

± √(1/4 - x/3) = y - 3/2

y = 3/2 ± √(1/4 - x/3)

y⁺ and y⁻ are the solutions with the positive and negative square roots, respectively, so each shell has height

(3/2 + √(1/4 - x/3)) - (3/2 - √(1/4 - x/3)) = 2 √(1/4 - x/3)

Now set up the integral and compute the volume.

\displaystyle 2\pi \int_{x=0}^{x=3/4} 2x \sqrt{\frac14 - \frac x3} \, dx

Substitute u = 1/4 - x/3, so x = 3/4 - 3u and dx = -3 du.

\displaystyle 2\pi \int_{u=1/4-0/3}^{u=1/4-(3/4)/3} 2\left(\frac34 - 3u\right) \sqrt{u} \left(-3 \, du\right)

\displaystyle -12\pi \int_{u=1/4}^{u=0} \left(\frac34 - 3u\right) \sqrt{u} \, du

\displaystyle 12\pi \int_{u=0}^{u=1/4} \left(\frac34 u^{1/2} - 3u^{3/2}\right)  \, du

\displaystyle 12\pi \left(\frac34\cdot\frac23 u^{3/2} - 3\cdot\frac25u^{5/2}\right)  \bigg|_{u=0}^{u=1/4}

\displaystyle 12\pi \left(\frac12 u^{3/2} - \frac65u^{5/2}\right)  \bigg|_{u=0}^{u=1/4}

\displaystyle 12\pi \left(\frac12 \left(\frac14\right)^{3/2} - \frac65\left(\frac14\right)^{5/2}\right) - 12\pi (0 - 0)

\displaystyle 12\pi \left(\frac1{16} - \frac3{80}\right) = \frac{12\pi}{40} = \boxed{\frac{3\pi}{10}}
