Answer:

(a) annually = 17.67 years

(b) monthly = 17.36 years

(c) daily =  17.34 years

(d) continuously = 17.328 years

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

principal =  $500

annual rate = 4%

solution

we know here amount formula that is

amount = principal × (1+\frac{r}{n})^{n*t}    ..................1

put here value for compound annually

1000 = 500 × (1+\frac{0.04}{1})^{t}

take ln both side

ln 2 = ln {1.04}^{t}

t = 17.67 years

and

put value now in equation 1 for monthly

amount = principal × (1+\frac{r}{n})^{n*t}

1000 = 500 × (1+\frac{0.04}{12})^{12*t}

take ln both side

ln 2 = 12t × ln(1.003333)

t = 17.36 years

and

put value now in equation 1 for daily

amount = principal × (1+\frac{r}{n})^{n*t}

1000 = 500 × (1+\frac{0.04}{365})^{365*t}

take ln both side

ln 2 = 365 t × ln (1.0001095)

t = 17.34 years

and

for compound continuously

amount = principal × e^{r*t}   .................2

put here value

1000 = 500 × e^{0.04*t}

t = 17.328 years

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:  2y = 3x

Reason:

The equation x:y = 2:3 is the same as saying x/y = 2/3

Cross multiply to get 3x = 2y which flips to 2y = 3x
