Use the given values in the compound interest formula to solve for time, n.
A is the final amount of money, $2800
P is the initial or starting amount $1900
i is the interest rate as a decimal 0.025
n is time in years since it annual.
2800 = 1900(1 + 0.025)^n
2800 = 1900(1.025)^n
2800/1900 = (1.025)^n
28/19 = (1.025)^n
take the natural log of both sides to solve for exponent.
ln(28/19) = ln(1.025^n)
power rule of logarithmic moves exponent
ln(28/19) = n*ln(1.025)
ln(28/19) / ln(1.025) = n
put into a calculator
15.7 years = n
Answer: -2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
As an equation: 15 × x = -75
Solved: x = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
15*x = -75
=
, Divide by 15 on both sides to solve for x
x=
, The 15 in the numerator cancels out with the denominator
x= -5, because 75/15=5
Answer:
C and A
Step-by-step explanation:
expand the things in parentheses so for C
1/2(x + 16) = 1/2(x) + 1/2(16) = 1/2 x + 8
same process for A
3x+4y=12
9x-2y=15
we will use elimination
multiply 3x+4y=12 by -3
-9x-12y=-36
9x-2y=15
_________ add
-14y=-21
÷-14 both sides
y=1.5
find x
3x+4 (1.5)=12
3x+6=12
-6 both sides
3x=6
÷3 both sides
x=2
x=2
y=1.5
