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

A polar bear swims 390 meters at a constant rate in 150 seconds. what is the speed of the polar bear?
worty [1.4K]
The answer is 2.6 m/s

The speed (v) is distance (d) through time (t).
v = d/t

We know:
d = 390 m
t = 150 s

v = d/t
v = 390 m / 150s
v = = 2.6 m/s
