Answer: X=5 or X=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the method complete the square.

1. Subtract 4 from both sides.

X^2-4x+4-4=9-4

Find what value added to both sides of the equation will make the equation on the left a perfect square trinomial.

(B/2)^2

-4/2=-2   (-2)^2 = 4

2.Add 4 to both sides.

X^2-4x + 4= 5+4

3.Factor

(x-2)^2=9

Solve for X

x-2= +or- 3

x=5 or x=-1

What principal invested at 8% compounded continuously for 4 years will yield $1190?
zhuklara [117]
For continuously compounded interest:

Amount = Principle * e^(rate * time)

A rate of 8% converted to a decimal value: r=0.08
With time t=4
and amount 1190

Plug all these values in,

1190 = Principle * e^(0.08 * 4)

And use your calculator to solve for the principle.
Maybe we'll call it P to make things easier.

1190 = P * e^(0.08 * 4)
1190 = P * 1.377

The principle is being multiplied by this 1.377,
divide by 1.377 to undo the multiplication.

864.11735 = P
