Answer: 9
Explanation: you would use PEMDAS to solve the algebraic expression first by doing parentheses so subtract 8 and 7 which leaves you with 4 + 1 times 6-1. You would then multiply 1 into 6 which would leave you with 4 + 6 - 1 which you would then sum up 4 and 6 which leaves you with 10-1 which would give you the answer of 9
So the answer would be 9
Hope this helps!
Answer:
31 years to triple the investment
Step-by-step explanation:
Initial investment = 300
Triple amount that is final amount = 300*3= 900
rate of interest = 3.5 % = 0.035
we need to find out number of years (t)
for compounded continuously we use formula

A is the final amount
P is the initial amount
r is the rate of interest
t is the number of years

Divide both sides by 300

take 'ln' on both sides

ln(3) = 0.035t ln(e)
ln(e)= 1

t= 31.3889
Round to nearest whole number
t= 31 years
