Set this up as a ratio putting inches on top and feet on bottom. Then your first ratio would be 1/25 since 1 inch is the same as 25 feet. In between them goes an equals sign and the the other ratio has an x on top (because inches is what we are looking for) and the 1500 on the bottom. Cross multiply to solve for x:
1(1500) = x(25). Divide both sides by 25 to get 60
Answer:
After 23 years , the capital will get three times as big
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly, let us write the compound interest formula
P = I( 1 + r)^n
Since we are considering a capital rise of 3 times
If I, the initial value is x, the P
value later will be 3x
Interest rate is 5/100 = 0.05
so we need the value of t
This will be;
3x = x(1 + 0.05)^t
3= 1.05^t
ln 3 = t ln 1.05
t = ln 3/ln 1.05
t = 23 years
9/10 = x/13. Solve for x. X = 11.7.
Your answer would be 11.7oz. Hope this helps
We begin with 1,000 fish in a lake.
Each year the population declines to 15%
Then they put back 500 fish in the lake.
The equation: (1000 * .85) +500
