2x - 10 - 5x = -4

Add 10

+10 +10

2x - 5x = 6

An initial investment of $100 is now valued at $150. The annual interest rate is 5%, compounded continuously. The equation 100e0

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

$8\ years$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula to calculate continuously compounded interest is equal to

$A=P(e)^{rt}$

where

A is the Final Investment Value

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested

r is the rate of interest in decimal

t is Number of Time Periods

e is the mathematical constant number

we have

$t=?\ years\\ P=\$100\\A=\$150\\ r=0.05$

substitute in the formula above

$150=100(e)^{0.05*t}$

$1.5=(e)^{0.05*t}$

Applying ln both sides

$ln(1.5)=(0.05t)ln(e)$

$ln(1.5)=(0.05t)$

$t=ln(1.5)/(0.05)$

$t=8\ years$
