Answer:
13.86
Step-by-step explanation:
formula for cont. compounding interest is
Amount = Principal * e^rt
in this case the principal is 5000, and the amount is 10000 (double). the rate is 5% or 0.05. and t is what we are solving for.
sub in to get:
10000 = 5000e^0.05t
2 = e^0.05t
now convert to log form.
ln 2 = 0.05t
ln 2 / 0.05 = t
punch that into your calculator and you get 13.86 years
Answer:
The first equation, sorry can’t explain.
Answer:
3/4 or 0.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Regroup terms.
2. Add 1 to both sides.
3. Simplify 3x + 3 + 1 to 3x + 4.
4. Subtrect 3x from both sides.
5. Simplify 4x - 3x to x.
Therefor, the answer is, x = 4.
His car gets 21 mpg (miles per gallon). With 1 gallon he can drive 21 miles. For example, with 10 gallons, he can drive 21 mpg * 10 gal = 210 miles.
He bought $19.50 worth of gas at $1.40 per gallon.
$19.50 / ($1.40/gal) = 13.93 gal
He already had 5 gal of gas in his tanks, so now he has
5 gal + 13.93 gal = 18.93 gal
With 18.93 gal, he can drive
18.93 gal * 21 mpg = 292.5 miles
