Answer:

94 years

Step-by-step explanation:

We can approach the solution using the compound interest equation

A= P(1+r)^t

Given data

P= $40,000

A=  $120,000

r=  1.25%= 1.25/100= 0.0125

substituting and solving for t we have

120000= 40000(1+0.0125)^t \\\120000= 40000(1.0125)^t

dividing both sides by 40,000 we have

(1.0125)^t=\frac{120000}{40000} \\\\(1.0125)^t=3\\\ t Log(1.0125)= log(3)\\\ t*0.005= 0.47

dividing both sides by 0.005 we have

t= 0.47/0.005\\t= 94

What is the area of the triangle whose vertices are D( 3, 3), E(3, -1), and F(-2, -5)?
ycow [4]

<u>Answer-</u>

<em>Area of the triangle is </em><em>10 sq.units</em>

<u>Solution-</u>

We know that,

\text{Area of the triangle}=\dfrac{1}{2}[{x_1(y_2-y_3)+x_2(y_3-y_1)+x_3(y_1-y_2)]

Taking,

(x₁, y₁) = (3, 3)

(x₂, y₂) = (3, -1)

(x₃, y₃) = (-2, -5)

Then putting these in the formula,

\text{Area of the triangle}=\dfrac{1}{2}[3(-1+5)+3(-5-3)-2(3+1)]

=\dfrac{1}{2}[3(4)+3(-8)-2(4)]

=\dfrac{1}{2}[12-24-8]

=\dfrac{1}{2}[-20]

=-10

As area can not be negative, ignoring negative sign,

\text{Area of the triangle}=10

After a 80 % ​reduction, you purchase a new DVD player on sale for ​$128. What was the original price of the DVD player​?
Gelneren [198K]
So with an 80% reduction the decimal is 0.80
128 \times 0.80 = 102.40
128.00 + 102.40 = 230.40
230.40 - 102.4 = 128.00
The original price was $230.40
