You make an initial investment of $500. Fill in the table below to show how much money you would have after 3 years if your acco
Aleksandr [31]
After three years, your investment would be $575. The formula is A=P(1+(r/n)^(n*t) where A is the final amount, P is the initial balance, r is the interest rate, n is the amount of time the interest is compounded in a year, and t is the amount of time that has passed.
P=500
r= 5% is which converted into a decimal by dividing 5 by 100 which is then 0.05
n= 1 since it is compounded annually
t= 3
Hope this helped.

Allometric relations often can be modeled by ​f(x)= x^b​, where a and b are constants. One study showed that for a male fiddler
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

a) f(2)= 0.448 (2)^{1.21}= 1.036 grams

b) 0.5 = 0.448 x^{1.21}

Dividing both sides by 0.448 we got:

\frac{0.5}{0.448} = x^{1.21}

We can appy the exponent \frac{1}{1.21} in both sides of the equation and we got:

(\frac{0.5}{0.448})^{\frac{1}{1.21}} = x= 1.095grams

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we know the following function:

f(x) = 0.448 x^{1.21}

The notation is: x is the weight of the crab in​ grams, and the output​ f(x) is the weight of the claws in grams.

Part a

For this case we just need to replace x = 2 gram in the function and we got:

f(2)= 0.448 (2)^{1.21}= 1.036 grams

Part b

For this case we know tha value for f(x) =0.5 and we want to find the value of x who satisfy this condition:

0.5 = 0.448 x^{1.21}

Dividing both sides by 0.448 we got:

\frac{0.5}{0.448} = x^{1.21}

We can appy the exponent \frac{1}{1.21} in both sides of the equation and we got:

(\frac{0.5}{0.448})^{\frac{1}{1.21}} = x= 1.095grams

The quotient of a number and 5, less 10, is 3
sergejj [24]
Quotient is the result of division. Assign a variable to the unknown number. Let's make it x. Write the statement as an equation.
x/5 - 10 = 3

solve for x

x/5 - 10 = 3
x/5 = 3 + 10
x/5 = 13
x = 5 × 13
x = 65

A city has a population of 250,000 people. Suppose that each year the population grows by 6%. What will the population be after
irinina [24]

Answer:

503,049

Step-by-step explanation:

250,000 × 1.06^12 is the formula.

You take the percentage which is 6% and you add 1 to it.

So, you get 1.06

Then you take the 1.06 and raise it to the number of years which is 12.

1.06^12

Then you multiply that number to the base number which is 250,000 and get 503,049.

Hope this helps!
