Answer:

  7 years 11 months

Step-by-step explanation:

The future value formula for the value of a principal P invested at annual rate r compounded n times yearly for t years is ...

  FV = P(1 +r/n)^(nt)

For the given numbers, we want to find t:

  6000 = 3700(1 +.062/2)^(2t)

Dividing by 3700 and taking the logarithm, we get ...

  6000/3700 = 1.031^(2t)

  log(60/37) = 2t·log(1.031)

Dividing by the coefficient of t gives ...

  t = log(60/37)/(2log(1.031)) ≈ 7.92 . . . . . years

It will take about 7 years 11 months for the investment to grow to $6000.

You would put 9 times v because you are multiplying it to the 9 and you do not know what v is then you would divide it by 3 and get your answer so for example if you should have gotten 9 times v = 72 then 72 divided by 3 = 24 and 24 divided by 3 = 8

(a 3 - 2a + 5) - (4a 3 - 5a 2 + a - 2)
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

- 3a³ + 5a² - 3a + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(a³ - 2a + 5) - (4a³ - 5a² + a - 2)

Distribute both parenthesis noting the second is distributed by - 1

= a³ - 2a + 5 - 4a³ + 5a² - a + 2 ← collect like terms

= (a³ - 4a³ ) + 5a² + (- 2a - a) + (5 + 2)

= - 3a³ + 5a² - 3a + 7
