Find the doubling time of an investment earning 7% interest if interest is compounded continuously

Mathematics
1 answer:
Alex3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The doubling time of this investment would be 9.9 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

The appropriate equation for this compound interest is

A = Pe^(rt), where P is the principal, r is the interest rate as a decimal fraction, and t is the elapsed time in years.

If P doubles, then A = 2P

Thus, 2P = Pe^(0.07t)

Dividing both sides by P results in 2 = e^(0.07t)

Take the natural log of both sides:  ln 2 = 0.07t.

Then t = elapsed time = ln 2

                                       --------- = 0.69315/0.07 = 9.9

                                         0.07

The doubling time of this investment would be 9.9 years.

\frac{df+10}{6}= g

Now, multiply both sides by 6 and you get.....

 df+10=6g

now, subtract 10 on both sides and you get.....

df=6g-10

now divide both sides by d to get f by itself and you get........

f= \frac{6g-10}{d}

Circumference is found with the formula

c = pi × d

d is diameter and we will use 3.14 for pi.

The diameter is the measure across the center of the circle. In the first problem, you are given the radius, so we have to multiply by 2 to get the diameter. Then we can use the formula.

12.4 in × 2 = 24.8 in (that's the diameter)

c = pi × D
c = 3.14 × 24.8
c = 77.872 inches

circumference is 77.872 inches.

Try the other problems on your own. They are just like this one. Just make sure they are giving you the diameter and not the radius. Post if you have problems.

The life expectancy of a particular brand of tire is normally distributed with a mean of 40,000 and a standard deviation of 5,00
timama [110]

Answer: the probability that a randomly selected tire will have a life of exactly 47,500 miles is 0.067

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the life expectancy of a particular brand of tire is normally distributed, we would apply the formula for normal distribution which is expressed as

z = (x - µ)/σ

Where

x = life expectancy of the brand of tire in miles.

µ = mean

σ = standard deviation

From the information given,

µ = 40000 miles

σ = 5000 miles

The probability that a randomly selected tire will have a life of exactly 47,500 miles

P(x = 47500)

For x = 47500,

z = (40000 - 47500)/5000 = - 1.5

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.067
