Answer: (c)

Because it is 5 units to the left of 1 on a horizontal number line

Step-by-step explanation:

Number lines are laid out like books, we read from left to right. Therefore, negative numbers are on the left of the number line. Starting at 1, moving five place left would land you on -4.

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

(a) The future value after 9 ​years is $7142.49.

(b) The effective rate is r_E=4.759 \:{\%}.

(c) The time to reach ​$13,000 is 21.88 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

The definition of Continuous Compounding is

If a deposit of P dollars is invested at a rate of interest r compounded continuously for t years, the compound amount is

A=Pe^{rt}

(a) From the information given

P=4700

r=4.65\%=\frac{4.65}{100} =0.0465

t=9 \:years

Applying the above formula we get that

A=4700e^{0.0465\cdot 9}\\A=7142.49

The future value after 9 ​years is $7142.49.

(b) The effective rate is given by

r_E=e^r-1

Therefore,

r_E=e^{0.0465}-1=0.04759\\r_E=4.759 \:{\%}

(c) To find the time to reach ​$13,000, we must solve the equation

13000=4700e^{0.0465\cdot t}

4700e^{0.0465t}=13000\\\\\frac{4700e^{0.0465t}}{4700}=\frac{13000}{4700}\\\\e^{0.0465t}=\frac{130}{47}\\\\\ln \left(e^{0.0465t}\right)=\ln \left(\frac{130}{47}\right)\\\\0.0465t\ln \left(e\right)=\ln \left(\frac{130}{47}\right)\\\\0.0465t=\ln \left(\frac{130}{47}\right)\\\\t=\frac{\ln \left(\frac{130}{47}\right)}{0.0465}\approx21.88

Write the inverse function for the function, ƒ(x) =1/2x + 4. Then, find the value of ƒ^ -1(4). Type your answers in the box.
Kipish [7]

Answer:

f⁻¹(x) = 2x - 8

f⁻¹(4) = 2 × 4 - 8

f⁻¹(4) = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = \frac{1}{2} x + 4\\x = \frac{1}{2} f^{-1}(x) + 4\\x - 4 = \frac{1}{2} f^{-1}(x)\\2x - 8 = f^{-1}(x)\\f^{-1}(x) = 2x - 8

Let's test it

f^{-1}(f(x)) = 2(f(x)) - 8\\f^{-1}(f(x)) = 2( \frac{1}{2}x + 4) - 8\\f^{-1}(f(x)) = \frac{2}{2}x + 8 - 8\\f^{-1}(f(x)) = x

So we do indeed have the inverse function, so using that we can plug in the values requested:

f⁻¹(x) = 2x - 8

f⁻¹(4) = 2 × 4 - 8

f⁻¹(4) = 0
