Answer: The continuous growth rate of koalas is 18.7%.

We use the formula for continuous growth to find the rate of growth. The formula is:

Population_{2007} = Population_{1996}*e^{rt}

Substituting the values we get,

26000 = 5000*2.71828^{9r}

\frac{26000}{5000} = 2.71828^{9r}

5.4 = 2.71828^{9r}

We can solve this equation further by taking the normal log of both sides of the equation.

ln5.4 = 9r * ln2.71828

1.686398954=9r*0.999999327

1.686398954=8.999993946r

\frac{1.686398954}{8.999993946} =r

0.187377788 = r

Answer:

B) Pay bills when they are due.

Explanation:

A loan can be defined as an amount of money that is being borrowed from a lender and it is expected to be paid back at an agreed date with interest.

Generally, the financial institution such as a bank lending out the sum of money usually requires that borrower provides a collateral which would be taken over in the event that the borrower defaults (fails) in the repayment of the loan.

A credit score can be defined as a numerical expression between 300 - 850 that represents an individual's financial history and credit worthiness. Therefore, a credit score determines the ability of a borrower to obtain a loan from a lender.

This ultimately implies that, the higher your credit score, the higher and better it is to obtain a loan from a potential lender. A credit score ranging from 670 to 739 is considered to be a good credit score while a credit score of 740 to 799 is better and a credit score of 800 to 850 is considered to be excellent.

Generally, it's recommended that loans or bills are paid on a timely basis or as at when due in order to obtain a good credit score.

Hence, a way to establish a good credit record (score) is to pay bills when they are due.
