Answer:

B. 8.66%

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we have to evaluate the following formula:

n = e ^ (k * t)

where n would be the growth rate, we are told that it doubles therefore it is 2.

k is the monthly rate and time, 8 months.

Solved for k, we are left with:

ln (n) = k * t

k = ln (n) / t

replacing we have:

k = ln (2) / t = 0.693 / 8

k = 0.0866

If we take this to a percentage it would be 0.0866 * 100 = 8.66%

Therefore the answer is B.

so the numbers are

2, -7, -16, -25, -34, -43, -52, -61, -70

so adding all these numbers we get

2-7-16-25-34-43-52-61-70

= -306

Janka si vložila 3200 eur na termínovaný účet s 1,2 úrokovou mierov koľko bude mať po 1 roku
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

the present value is 3,162 euros

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the present value is shown below:

As we know that

Future value = Present value × (1 + rate of interest)^number of years

3,200 euros = Present value × (1 + 0.012)^1

3,200 euros =  Present value × 1.012^1

Present value is

= 3,200 euros ÷ 1.012

= 3,162 euros

Hence, the present value is 3,162 euros
