The function f(t)=3,502.86(1.15)(t−12) models the amount of money in Gavin's investment account after t years. Gavin says this m

eans that the initial amount in the account was $3,502.86. Is he correct? Why or why not?
A.No, because you need to multiply 3,502.86 to find the initial amount.

B.No, because f(0) is not 3,502.86.

C.Yes, because 3,502.86 is multiplied by the exponential term.

D.Yes, because f(0)=3,502.86

Answer: C.Yes, because 3,502.86 is multiplied by the exponential term.

Step-by-step explanation:

3502.86 is the capital

1.15 is the interest

While ( t - 12 ) tells us about the period of time.

And f(t) is the amount of money in Gavin's investment account after t years

Answer:

C. Yes, because 3,502.86 is multiplied by the exponential term.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The function, f(t) = 3,502.86 × (1.15)× (t−12)

Simple interest, I = (P × R × t)/100

Where,

P = initial sum of money

R = rate

t = time in years

Amount of money after t years, A = I + P

But I = (P × R × T)/100

A = (P × R × T)/100 + P

= P × (1 + 0.01R) × t

Comparing this equation with the equation above,

P = 3,502.86

= initial sum of money.

Gavin is correct.

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

for the first gear

revolutions/teeth

1 / 24

2 / 48

3 / 72

4 / 96

5 / 120

6 / 144

for the second gear

revolutions/teeth

1 / 40

2 / 80

3 / 120

4 / 160

<em>the two marks will meet after 120 teeth, 5 revolutions of the first gear and 3 revolutions of the second.</em>

the way to get that amount of teeth is

$24 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3 = {2}^{3} \times 3$

$40 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 5 = {2}^{3} \times 5$

the Least Common Multiple equals the product of all factors, but those factors who are repeted for both numbers should be only once.

${2}^{3} \times 5 \times 3 = 120$

120 teeth are 5 revolutions for gear1 and 3 por gear2

Without further study, you forget things as time passes. A model of human memory gives the percentage, p, of acquired knowledge

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

42.69% of information is acquired by the student in two weeks.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

$p = (100 -a)e^{-bt} + a$

where a and b are constants.

$a = 18\\b = 0.6$

p tells us about the percentage of acquired knowledge that a person retains after t weeks.

We have to find the percentage of knowledge acquired in two week.

We put t = 2

$p = (100 -18)e^{-(0.6)(2)} + 18\\p = 42.69$

Thus, 42.69% of information is acquired by the student in two weeks.
