So, to set up your equation is the hardest part. If you remember the basic format, you're set.
I(t) = P * (1+r%)^t
t= time and this will be our variable
Initial amount P = $2740
Rate = 4.3% which converts numerically into .043
I(t) = 7000
Before we get to find out how to find how many years it takes to get to $7000, set up the basic equation by plugging in what we know.
I(t) = $2740(1+4.3%)^t
I(t)=2740(1.043)^t
Now plug in for $7000 for I(t)
7000=2740(1.043)^t Divide both sides by 2740
7000/2740 = 2740/2740(1.043)^t
2.55474453=(1.043)^t
Now you can solve for t in two ways. You can either use the natural log or graph it on your graphing calculate and see when the two equations meet.
In your calculator you can set up:
ln(2.55474453)/ln(1.043) = t which is the method I prefer since it's much simpler
t=22.278528
but you can also graph it in your ti-84
with
y1=2.55474453
y2=(1.043)^x
and find where they intersect on the graph.
either way it'll be the same answer
Answer:
175 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Hillary has travelled
320 + 350 = 670 miles
in the first two weeks.
Therefore, Hillary starts with 670 miles and needs to add a certain number of miles "x" to get 845 in total.
670 + x = 845
And if we subtract 670 from both sides:
x = 845 - 670 = 175
175 miles
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
All other options are more biased
In B, the official wants to use 50 people from a library to represent the <u>entire town's</u> opinion on the library itself.... that's biased.
In C, it's the same. Of course basketball players would like to watch basketball.... right?? That's why the choice is biased.
In D, the location is a deli.... and from experience people order meat at a deli... cuz why else go there?
The box has volume
11 in × 3 in × <em>x</em> in = 33<em>x</em> in³
and surface area
2 (11 in × 3 in + 11 in × <em>x</em> in + 3 in × <em>x</em> in) = (66 + 28<em>x</em>) in²
The volume and area have the same value if
33<em>x</em> = 66 + 28<em>x</em>
Solve this equation for <em>x</em> :
33<em>x</em> - 28<em>x</em> = 66
5<em>x</em> = 66
<em>x</em> = 66/5 = 13.2
