The part of 35 that is 7 is 5
The answer is 2.5 years.
The compound interest formula is:
A = P(1 + r/n)ⁿˣ
A - the final value
P - the initial value
r - the interest rate
n - the number of times interest is compounded by year
t - the numbers of years of investment
We have:
A = $21,000
P = $15,000
r = 15% = 15/100 = 0.15
n = 1 (since this is per year)
t = ?
So:
Now, logarithm both sides of the equation:
Since
, then
Therefore:
1 shell of slated peanuts = 30 cents of dollar/Ounce = $0.3/Ounce
Money available = $5
Required purchase = 1 pound of slated peanuts = 16 ounces of peanuts
Given the cost per ounce,
16 ounces pf peanuts = 0.3*16 = $4.8
Balance = $5-$4.8 = $0.2 = 20 cents
There, $5 can buy 1 pound of peanuts will a balance of 20 cents.
Let "x" represent the number of units
5x = the number of tomato plants in Inessa's garden
6x = the number of tomato plants in Ralph's garden
the question says that half (1/2 x (5x)) of Inessa's tomato plants are taken from her garden and put into Ralph's garden
this means that Ralph has a total of 850 tomato plants in his garden
using all of this information, we get the following (which we have to solve):
(1/2)(5x) + 6x = 850
when we solve for "x", we find that:
"x" = 100
so, going back to the original statement, if Ralph started out with (6x) tomato plants, and "x" = 100, we have to multiply 6 by 100
doing so gives us our final answer:
Ralph had 600 tomato plants in the beginning
