Answer:

19.8%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following formula for continuous compound interest:

A = P * e ^ (i * t)

Where:

A is the final value

P is the initial investment

i is the interest rate in decimal

t is time.

The time can be calculated as follows:

25 - 18 = 7

That is, the time corresponds to 7 years. In addition, A is 20,000 for A and P would be 5,000, we replace:

20000 = 5000 * e ^ (7 * i)

20000/5000 = e ^ (7 * i)

e ^ (7 * i) = 4

ln e ^ (7 * i) = ln 4

7 * i = ln 4

i = (ln 4) / 7

i = 0.198

Which means that the rounded percentage will be 19.8% per year

The sum of four consecutive even integers is 256. what are the numbers?
Naily [24]

Answer:

61 , 63 , 65 , 67

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the least even number be denoted by x. The sum of the four consecutive even numbers would be:

(x) + (x + 2) + (x + 4) (x + 6) = 256

First, simplify. Combine all like terms:

x + x + x + x + 2 + 4 + 6 = 256

4x + 12 = 256

Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

First, subtract 12 from both sides of the equation:

4x + 12 (-12) = 256 (-12)

4x = 256 - 12

4x = 144

Next, divide 4 from both sides of the equation:

(4x)/4 = (144)/4

x = 144/4

x = 61

61 is your first number. Find the next 3 consecutive numbers:

x = 61

x + 2 = 63

x + 4 = 65

x + 6 = 67

Check:

61 + 63 + 65 + 67 = 256

256 = 256
