Answer:

It will take 4.84 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial amount that Matt invested was $1669. It means that principal is

P = 1669

It was compounded 12 times per year. So

n = 12

The rate at which the principal was compounded is 2%. So

r = 2/100 = 0.02

The formula for compound interest is

A = P(1+r/n)^nt

A = total amount in the account at the end of t years.

A = 1,844.38

Therefore

1,844.38 = 1669(1+0.02/12)^(12×t)

1,844.38/1669 = (1.0017)^(12t)

1.1051 = (1.0017)^(12t)

Taking log to base 10 of both sides, it becomes

Log 1.1051 = log 1.0017^(12t)

Log 1.1051 = 12tlog 1.0017

0.043 = 0.00074 × 12t

0.043 = 0.00888t

t = 0.043/0.00888

t = 4.84 years

Find the midpoint of the line segment joining the points P1 and P2.
ludmilkaskok [199]

Formula for midpoint between two points is M(x,y)

x=(x1+x2)/2 and y=(y1+y2)/2

In our case (x1,y1)=(m,b) and (x2,y2)=(0,0)

x=(m+0)/2=m/2 and y=(b+0)/2=b/2     M(m/2,b/2)

Good luck!!!

Help!!! I don’t get this :(
mafiozo [28]
You have to use distributive property. Multiply the numbers outside of the parenthesis by the numbers inside. For example, you would multiply 0.4 by 2x first, then multiply it by 1/2. You should get two answers. Write them down in this form: first answer + second answer. Then do the same for the other side of the equal sign, but leave the - 4 alone. If you need more help, let me know
