Answer:

10.14 feet per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Over the next 3 1/2 years, a tree grew to a final height of 35 1/2 feet.

Question asked:

During those 3 1/2 years, what was the average yearly growth rate of the height of the tree?

Solution:

We can find the average yearly growth rate by using average formula, taking

final height of the tree as sum of observation and time span taken to growth as number of observation:-

As we know:

Average=\frac{Sum\ of\ observation}{number \ of\ observation}

             =35\frac{1}{2} \div3\frac{1}{2} \\ \\ =\frac{71}{2} \div\frac{7}{2} \\ \\ =\frac{71}{2}\times\frac{2}{7} \\ \\ =\frac{142}{14} =10.14\ feet

Thus, during 3\frac{1}{2} \ years, the average yearly growth rate of the height of the tree was 10.14 feet per year

fredd [130]

Answer:

Since we do not know the balance we should start with, a general answer:

b_{new} = b_{old} + \sum_{i} d_{i} - \sum_{j} w_{j} \\

598 - 47,27 = 550,73, assuming b_old was 0$ for your example

Step-by-step explanation:

b stands for balance (old - before any deposits or withdrawals, new after all done)

d for deposits

w for withdrawals
