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

morpeh [17]

Answer:

4.756 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

The running trail in the local park is 3.416 miles long. If the park board were planning to extend the trail by 1.34 miles.

We need to find the new length of the running trial. It is equal to the sum of length of running trail and the extended length. So,

l = 3.416 +1.34

l = 4.756 miles

So, the new length of the running trail be 4.756 miles

The height of a golfball hit off a 128-foot hill is modeled by the function h(t) = −16t2 + 32t + 128, where h is height in feet
taurus [48]

The time taken for the golf ball to reach the ground is 1 s.

<h3>Motion of the golf ball</h3>

The path of motion of the golf ball can be described as parabolic because it is projectile.

When the golf ball reaches the ground, the final velocity will be zero.

Velocity of the golf ball is change in height with time.

v = dh/dt

h(t) = -16t² + 32t  + 128

dh/dt = -32t + 32

0 = -32t + 32

32t = 32

t = 1 s

Thus, the time taken for the golf ball to reach the ground is 1 s.
