Last one anyone that can help me out?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Usimov [2.4K]3 years ago

Answer:

Part a. t = 7.29 years.

Part b. t = 27.73 years.

Part c. p = $3894.00

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for continuous compounding is: A = p*e^(rt); where A is the amount after compounding, p is the principle, e is the mathematical constant (2.718281), r is the rate of interest, and t is the time in years.

Part a. It is given that p = $2000, r = 2.5%, and A = $2400. In this part, t is unknown. Therefore: 2400 = 2000*e^(2.5t). This implies 1.2 = e^(0.025t). Taking natural logarithm on both sides yields ln(1.2) = ln(e^(0.025t)). A logarithmic property is that the power of the logarithmic expression can be shifted on the left side of the whole expression, thus multiplying it with the expression. Therefore, ln(1.2) = 0.025t*ln(e). Since ln(e) = 1, and making t the subject gives t = ln(1.2)/0.025. This means that t = 7.29 years (rounded to the nearest 2 decimal places)!!!

Part b. It is given that p = $2000, r = 2.5%, and A = $4000. In this part, t is unknown. Therefore: 4000 = 2000*e^(2.5t). This implies 2 = e^(0.025t). Taking natural logarithm on both sides yields ln(2) = ln(e^(0.025t)). A logarithmic property is that the power of the logarithmic expression can be shifted on the left side of the whole expression, thus multiplying it with the expression. Therefore, ln(2) = 0.025t*ln(e). Since ln(e) = 1, and making t the subject gives t = ln(2)/0.025. This means that t = 27.73 years (rounded to the nearest 2 decimal places)!!!

Part c. It is given that A = $5000, r = 2.5%, and t = 10 years. In this part, p is unknown. Therefore 5000 = p*e^(0.025*10). This implies 5000 = p*e^(0.25). Making p the subject gives p = 5000/e^0.25. This means that p = $3894.00(rounded to the nearest 2 decimal places)!!!

Three vertices of a parallelogram are shown in the figure below. Give the coordinates of the fourth vertex.
topjm [15]

Given:

The three vertices of a parallelogram are (-3,8), (4,5), (2,-5).

To find:

The fourth vertex of the parallelogram.

Solution:

Let the vertices of the parallelogram are A(-3,8), B(4,5), C(2,-5) and D(a,b).

We know that, diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other. It means midpoints of both diagonals are same.

Midpoint formula:

Midpoint=\left(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2},\dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2}\right)

Two diagonals of ABCD are AC and BD.

Midpoint of AC = Midpoint of BD

\left(\dfrac{-3+2}{2},\dfrac{8-5}{2}\right)=\left(\dfrac{4+a}{2},\dfrac{5+b}{2}\right)

\left(\dfrac{-1}{2},\dfrac{3}{2}\right)=\left(\dfrac{4+a}{2},\dfrac{5+b}{2}\right)

On comparing both sides, we get

\dfrac{4+a}{2}=\dfrac{-1}{2}

4+a=-1

a=-1-4

a=-5

And,

\dfrac{5+b}{2}=\dfrac{3}{2}

5+b=3

b=3-5

b=-2

Therefore, the coordinates of fourth vertex are (-5,-2).

A photo of a beetle in a science book is increased to 535​% as large as the actual size. If the beetle is 14 ​millimeters, what
AnnZ [28]

Answer: 74.9 millimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, a photo of a beetle in a science book was.increased to 535​% as large as its actual size and the beetle.has a actual size of 14 ​millimeters,

The size of the beetle on the photo will be 535% of 14 millimeters. This will be:

= 535% of 14

= 535/100 × 14

= 5.35 × 14

= 74.9 millimeters

Help, please show how to find x, thank you
Stells [14]
Notice the tickmark on the angles, those angles are equal to each other.

now, notice the angle at the very top, the large triangle is really sharing it with smaller-inscribed triangle, and therefore is equal on both triangles.

therefore, the larger triangle, is similar with smaller-inscribed triangle by AA.

what the dickens does that mean?

\bf \cfrac{large}{small}\qquad \cfrac{4+5}{4}=\cfrac{5+x}{5}\implies \cfrac{9}{4}=\cfrac{5+x}{5}\implies 45=20+4x&#10;\\\\\\&#10;25=4x\implies \cfrac{25}{4}=x\implies 6\frac{1}{4}=x

strojnjashka [21]
Y=8x+12

y=8(32)+12
y=256+12
y=268

y=8(24)+12
y=192+12
y=204

204+268=$472

The instructor makes $472 a month.
