8 0

Answer: 31.25%

Step-by-step explanation: To answer the question what percent of 80 is 25, we translate the question into an equation.

So we have "what percent" that's x, "of 80" means times 80, "is 25" = 25.

Now to solve for x, since x is being multiplied by 80, we need to divide by 80 on both sides of the equation. On the left side of the equation the 80's cancel and we have x and on the right side of the equation, we have 25 ÷ 80 which gives us 0.3125. Now, remember that we want to right our answer as a percent so to write 0.3125 as a percent, we move the decimal point 2 places to the right and we get 31.25%.

Therefore, 31.25% of 80 is 25.

Compound interest of $1000 is invested at 10% compounded continuously, the future value s at any time t in years is given by s=1

crimeas [40]

Answer: 6.93 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Rate of interest is $r=10\%$

Future value is given by $s=1000e^{0.1t}$

For the investment to double itself, i.e. $s=2000$

$\Rightarrow 2000=1000e^{0.1t}\\\Rightarrow 2=e^{0.1t}\\\\\text{Taking log both sides}\\\\\Rightarrow \ln 2=0.1t\\\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{\ln 2}{0.1}\\\\\Rightarrow t=6.93\ \text{years}$
