Hey there!

First, set up an exponential equation that represents the rate at which your original amount, 1000, gains interest:

y = 1000(1.24)^x

Y represents the value after X years. 1.24 represents the rate at which the money gains interest, 1 + 0.24 (your 24% interest rate in decimal form). 1000 is your original amount.

Now, set this equation equal to 64000, graph y = 64000 and y = 1000(1.24)^x on a graphing calculator, and see where the two equations intersect in order to solve for x.

They intersect when x is about 19.334, as seen in the graph below (it is very zoomed in so that you can see where the two functions intersect). Therefore, it will be about 19 years after the year in which you deposited the 1000 dollars before the money is worth 64000 dollars.

I believe the answer is c ,BECAUSE... to find the change you take 5000 multiply it by the numbers that if aded would equal 5600 and 5000 times .12= 600, 5000 +600= 5600 hence the number of population in 2010.

Is 4/6 greater than 2/8?
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

Yes it is.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two ways to do this.

1: Find a common denominator, such as _/24. First, you do how many times does 6 go into 24? Well, 4, so then do 4x4 = 16/24 then do the same thing for 8. 8x3=24, so 2x3=6/24. So 16/24 is greater than 6/24.

2: 4/6 = 0.667 and 2/8 = 0.25. So yes, 0.667 is greater.
