Alright, so you have the basic formula- good.
You have the A value (400), the interest rate r (7.5% -> .075 in decimal), and the final P value (8500). So, we only need to solve for t.
8500 = (400)(1+.075)^t
/400 /400
21.25 = 1.075^t
logarithms are the inverse of exponents, basically, if you have an example like
y = b^x, then a logarithm inverts it, logy(baseb)=x
Makes sense if you consider a power of ten.
1000 = 10^3
if you put logbase10(1000), you'll get 3.
Anyways, though, to solve the problem make a log with a base of 1.075 in your calculator
log21.25(base 1.075) = t
also, because of rules of change of base (might want to look this up to clarify), you can write this as log(21.25)/log(1.075) = t
Thus, t is 42.26118551.
Rounded to hundredths, t=42.26
Answer:
just add 8+8+8 until you get to the number u want/need and the same with 7. Or you can multiply.
8x1=8
7x1=7
8x3=24 (8+8+8=24)
7x3=21 (7+7+7=21)
etc.
Hope it helps!
Hello,
The answer to this problem is -90.05.
Hope this helps
Answer:
i think it is 1.5
Step-by-step explanation
because 5 tenths is equal .5 and adding 1 unit which is adding on one which should equal 1.5
