Answer:

The principal must be = $8991.88

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for compound interest is:

A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}

Where A is the amount after 't' years.

P is the principal amount

n is the number of times interest is compounded each year.

r is the rate of interest.

Here, we are given that:

Amount, A = $15000

Rate of interest = 13 % compounded quarterly i.e. 4 times every year

Number of times, interest is compounded each year, n = 4

Time, t = 4 years.

To find, Principal P = ?

Putting all the given values in the formula to find P.

15000 = P(1 + \frac{13}{400})^{4\times 4}\\\Rightarrow 15000 = P(1 + 0.0325)^{16}\\\Rightarrow 15000 = P(1.0325)^{16} \\\Rightarrow 15000 = P \times 1.66817253\\\Rightarrow P = \dfrac{15000}{1.66817253}\\\Rightarrow P \approx \$8991.88

So, <em>the principal must be = $8991.88</em>

From first principle find the derivative of logx​
Archy [21]

Hello!

\large\boxed{\frac{dy}{dx}logx = \frac{1}{xln10}  }

Recall that:

logx can be rewritten as:

log_{10}x

Use the equation for the derivative of a log expression:

\frac{dy}{dx}log_{a}u = \frac{1}{ulna} * u'

Substitute in the values in the expression:

logx = \frac{1}{xln10} * 1 = \frac{1}{xln10}

Help due soon <br> find the area using 3.14 for π<br> round to the nearest Hundredth if you have too
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

Circumference is about 185.26 cm.

Area is about 2732.585 cm^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference = 2πr

2 x 3.14 x 29.5 = 185.26

Area of a circle = πr^{2}

3.14 x 29.5 x 29.5 = 2732.585

I got this question that says to Complete the table for the given rule. and that is y=5x and it says (the chart has only numbers
Ainat [17]

Answer:

X     Y

1       5

4/5   4

2/5   2

Step-by-step explanation:

y=5x

We we know y we need to solve for x

X Y

  5

  4

  2

Let y =5

5 = 5x

Divide by 5

5/5 =5x/5

1=x

Let y =4

4 = 5x

Divide by 5

4/5 =5x/5

4/5=x

Let y =2

2 = 5x

Divide by 5

2/5 =5x/5

2/5=x

X     Y

1       5

4/5   4

2/5   2
