You will need this formula:
Years = ln (Total / Principal) / rate
(where "ln" means natural logarithm)
and we'll use $100 and $200 for beginning and ending amount
Years = ln (200 / 100) / rate
Years = 0.69314718056 / .052
Years = <span> <span> <span> 13.3297534723 </span> </span> </span>
Rounding to the nearest tenth of a year:
Years = <span> <span> <span> 13.3

Solve for x and verify:3(x+3)-2(x-1)=5(x-5)
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

x=9

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute:

3x+9-2x+2=5x-25

Combine like terms:

x+11=5x-25

Solve:

x-x+11=5x-x-25

11=4x-25

11+25=4x-25+25

36=4x

Divide by 9:

x=9.

Hope this helps :D

If [infinity] cn8n n = 0 is convergent, can we conclude that each of the following series is convergent? (a) [infinity] cn(−3)n
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

a) we know that this is convergent.

b) we know that this might not converge.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the \sum^\infty_{n=0}C_n8^n is convergent

Therefore,

(a)  \sum^\infty_{n=0}C_n(-3)^n The power series \sum C_nx^n has radius of convergence at least as big as 8. So we definitely know it converges for all x satisfying -8<x≤8. In particular for x = -3

∴ \sum^\infty_{n=0}C_n(-3)^n  is convergent.

(b) \sum^\infty_{n=0}C_n(-8)^n -8 could be right on the edge of the interval of convergence, and so might not converge

Why is it important to calculate the distance between two points on a cartesian coordinate plane?
Gwar [14]

Answer:

Derived from the Pythagorean Theorem, the distance formula is used to find the distance between two points in the plane. The Pythagorean Theorem,

a

2

+

b

2

=

c

2

, is based on a right triangle where a and b are the lengths of the legs adjacent to the right angle, and c is the length of the hypotenuse. The relationship of sides

|

x

2

−

x

1

|

and

|

y

2

−

y

1

|

to side d is the same as that of sides a and b to side c. We use the absolute value symbol to indicate that the length is a positive number because the absolute value of any number is positive. (For example,

|

−

3

|

=

3

. ) The symbols

|

x

2

−

x

1

|

and

|

y

2

−

y

1

|

indicate that the lengths of the sides of the triangle are positive. To find the length c, take the square root of both sides of the Pythagorean Theorem.

c

2

=

a

2

+

b

2

→

c

=

√

a

2

+

b

It follows that the distance formula is given as

d

=

(

x

−

x

)

2

+

(

y

−

y

)

→

d

=

√

(

x

2

−

x

1

)

2

+

(

y

2

−

y

1

)

2

We do not have to use the absolute value symbols in this definition because any number squared is positive.

A GENERAL NOTE: THE DISTANCE FORMULA

Given endpoints

(

x

,

y

)

and

(

x

,

y

)

, the distance between two points is given by
