Getting at least a 80% ( B average) is also good still very close to 90
Let the amount invested at 4% be = x
Let the amount invested at 3% be = y
Given is:
or
.... (1)
As, total income for the two investments is $194, so equation is:
....(2)
Putting value of x from (1) in (2)




And x=5200-y

Hence, money invested at 4% is $3800 and money invested at 3% is $1400
Answer: 41.5 min
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem can be solved with the Radioactive Half Life Formula:
(1)
Where:
is the final amount of the radioactive element
is the initial amount of the radioactive element
is the time elapsed
is the half life of the radioactive element
So, we need to substitute the given values and find
from (1):
(2)
(3)
(4)
Applying natural logarithm in both sides:
(5)
(6)
Clearing
:
This is the time elapsed
For x = 4, then it means 3 to the fourth power or 3 times 3 times 3 times 3 times 3. 3^4 = 81 and 8 times that is 648.
y(x) = 8 * 3^x where x = 4:
y(x) = 8 * 3^4 = 8 * 81
y(x) = 648
The Function Rule then being that for every value of x there is one and only one value of y. y is the dependent variable and x is the independent variable.
