The formula for compounded continuously is :

Here the Amount triples , so let us say the new amount A=3P

Cancelling P from both sides we get,

Now here we are given rate is 2.75% or 0.0275,

solving for t we get
t=39.95 years
The GCF of 18 and 72 would be the first step.
the gcf is 18
So we we now have 18 (x^2y)(xy)
factor both variables
18xy would be the gcf
It will take her 5 5/8 hours to read 3/4 of the book
<h3>Ratio and proportions</h3>
Given that Elisabeth reads 1/5 of her book in 1 1/2 hours, this is expessed as:
0.2 of a book = 1.5 hours
In order to determine the time taken to read 0.75 part of the book, we will have:
0.75 of a book = x
Take the ratios
0.2/0.75 = 1.5/x
0.2x = 1.125
x = 1.125/0.2
x = 5.625
Hence it will take her 5 5/8 hours to read 3/4 of the book

Answer:
square units
Step-by-step explanation:
The simple formula we need here is:

Where
d is length of diagonal
s is length of side of square
Let's find side length of square from information given:

Now,
we know area of square is 
We know s, and now we find area
Area = 
The first answer choice is right, 1/2x^2 sq. units.
