The time it will take the principal to grow to the desired amount is 0.7 years
Using the compound interest formula :
A = P(1 + r/n)^(nt)
A = final amount = 225,000
P = principal = 180,000
r = rate = 3.12%
n = Number of compounding times per period = 12(monthly)
t = time
225000 = 180000(1 + (0.0312 /12))^(12t)
Divide both sides by 180000
225000/180000 = (1 + (0.0312 /12))^(12t)
1.25 = 1.026^12t
Take the log of both sides
0.0969100 = 0.0111473 × 12t
0.0969100 = 0.1337676t
Divide both sides by 0.1337676 to isolate t
0.0969100 / 0.1337676 = t
0.7244 years
0.7 years
It will take 0.7 years for the amount to grow

Answer:
Hence the correct answer is option (A) 4.708.
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution:-
Now, we need to find the angle of the sector by using sector formula,
We now convert the angle to radian
Now we calculate the length of arc by arc formula
So, The length of steel that must be replaced is 4.708 ft.
You would use the distance formula
