Alright, so you have the basic formula- good.
You have the A value (400), the interest rate r (7.5% -> .075 in decimal), and the final P value (8500). So, we only need to solve for t.
8500 = (400)(1+.075)^t
/400 /400
21.25 = 1.075^t
logarithms are the inverse of exponents, basically, if you have an example like
y = b^x, then a logarithm inverts it, logy(baseb)=x
Makes sense if you consider a power of ten.
1000 = 10^3
if you put logbase10(1000), you'll get 3.
Anyways, though, to solve the problem make a log with a base of 1.075 in your calculator
log21.25(base 1.075) = t
also, because of rules of change of base (might want to look this up to clarify), you can write this as log(21.25)/log(1.075) = t
Thus, t is 42.26118551.
Rounded to hundredths, t=42.26
The function of the length z in meters of the side parallel to the wall is A(z) = z/2(210 - z)
<h3>How to write a function of the length z in meters of the side parallel to the wall?</h3>
The given parameters are:
Perimeter = 210 meters
Let the length parallel to the wall be represented as z and the width be x
So, the perimeter of the fence is
P = 2x + z
This gives
210 = 2x + z
Make x the subject
x = 1/2(210 - z)
The area of the wall is calculated as
A = xz
So, we have
A = 1/2(210 - z) * z
This gives
A = z/2(210 - z)
Rewrite as
A(z) = z/2(210 - z)
Hence, the function of the length z in meters of the side parallel to the wall is A(z) = z/2(210 - z)
