Math Help Please explain the questions How long will it take for the balance of an account to double if the savings account earn
s 0.75% annual interest compounded monthly? Hint: Set up the problem using the formula: = (1 + r/n). Solve. Give BOTH the exact answer and approximate answer for x. The attachment is below for this second question. Write as a single logarithm.
4 ∙ log3 + log2
4 ∙ log3 + log2
1 answer:
(See attached formula)
Years = log (total / principal) / n*log(1 + rate/n) where n = compounding periods per year
Years = log (total / principal) / n*log(1 + rate/n)
Rate of .75% = .0625 per month
We'll say we want total = 200 and principal = 100
Years = log (200 / 100) / 12*log(1 + rate/n)
Years = log (2) / 12 * log (1 + .0625/12)
Years = <span> <span> <span> 0.3010299957 </span> </span> </span> / 12 * <span> <span> <span> 0.0022560803 </span> </span> </span> <span><span> </span> </span>

I don't think that's right
The interest rate is REALLY low. (Less than 1%)
Rate = .75 and .0075 when in a formula
Years = log (2) / 12 * log (1 + .0075/12)
Years = log (2) / 12 * log( <span>1.000625</span>)
Years = <span> <span> <span> 0.3010299957 </span> </span> </span> / 12 * <span> <span> <span> 0.0002713493 </span> </span> </span>
Years = <span><span><span> <span> 0.3010299957 </span> </span> / 0.0032561912 </span>
</span>Years = <span><span><span>92.4485010892
THAT seems a more likely answer with such a low interest rate.

Answer:
When we have a rational function like:
The domain will be the set of all real numbers, such that the denominator is different than zero.
So the first step is to find the values of x such that the denominator (x^2 + 3) is equal to zero.
Then we need to solve:
x^2 + 3 = 0
x^2 = -3
x = √(-3)
This is the square root of a negative number, then this is a complex number.
This means that there is no real number such that x^2 + 3 is equal to zero, then if x can only be a real number, we will never have the denominator equal to zero, so the domain will be the set of all real numbers.
D: x ∈ R.
b) we want to find two different numbers x such that:
r(x) = 1/4
Then we need to solve:
We can multiply both sides by (x^2 + 3)
Now we can multiply both sides by 4:
Now we only need to solve the quadratic equation:
x^2 + 3 - 4*x - 4 = 0
x^2 - 4*x - 1 = 0
We can use the Bhaskara's formula to solve this, remember that for an equation like:
a*x^2 + b*x + c = 0
the solutions are:
here we have:
a = 1
b = -4
c = -1
Then in this case the solutions are:
x = (4 + 4.47)/2 = 4.235
x = (4 - 4.47)/2 = -0.235
