A=p (1+r)^t
A future value
P present value 4.98
R rate 0.04
T time
After 3 years
A=4.98×(1+0.04)^(3)
A=5.60
7.50=4.98 (1.04)^t
Solve for t
T=log(7.50÷4.98)÷log(1.04)
T=10 years
Hope it helps:-)
So you know the compound continuously formula is

. Thus, just plug in.

Plug that into your calc to get $1832.
You have the correct axis of symmetry value. Nice work.
Plug that x value into the equation to get...
y = -2x^2 - 12x - 10
y = -2*(-3)^2 - 12*(-3) - 10 <<-- replace every x with -3; then use PEMDAS
y = -2*(9) - 12*(-3) - 10
y = -18 + 36 - 10
y = 18 - 10
y = 8
The vertex is the ordered pair (-3, 8)
Note: the axis of symmetry is the vertical line through the vertex
This equals 365 i know that is not what you ask but this is what i know
