Answer:

80 miles

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Rental of the first agency = $36.95 + 36 cents per mile

or

= $36.95 + $0.36 per mile                   [as $1 = 100 cents ]

Rental of the second agency = $44.95 + 26 cents per mile

or

= $44.95 + $0.26 per mile  

now,

let the mileage be 'x' miles

therefore,

the cost for the first agency will be = $36.95 + ( 0.36 × x )    ............(a)

and,

the cost for the second agency will be = $44.95 + ( $0.26 × x )    ........(b)

for the equal mileage, equating (a) and (b)

$36.95 + ( 0.36 × x ) = $44.95 + ( $0.26 × x )

or

( $0.36 - $0.26 ) × x = $44.95 - $36.95

or

0.1x = 8

or

x = 80 miles

At a growth (interest) rate of 8 percent annually, how long will it take for a sum to double? To triple? Use Appendix A for an a
Yanka [14]

Answer:

n =   ㏒ P ÷ ㏒ (1.08)

Explanation:

Compound interest rate

A = P × (1 + r)^{n}

where

P = principal amount (the initial amount you borrow or deposit)

r  = annual rate of interest (as a decimal)

A = amount of money accumulated after n years, including interest.

n  =  number of years

Since we want the principle amount to double i.e., A = 2P

put this in above equation

2P = P × (1 + r)^{n}

divide both sides by P, we get

P = (1 + r)^{n}

put r = 0.08

P = (1 + 0.08)^{n}

P = (1 .08)^{n}

Taking log on both sides

㏒ P =㏒ (1 .08)^{n}

㏒ P = n ㏒ (1.08)

n =   ㏒ P ÷ ㏒ (1.08)
