Answer:

  growth rate = 0.1733 per day, or 17.33% per day

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the doubling time is 4 days, the growth factor over a period of t days is ...

  2^(t/4)

Then the growth factor for 1 day is

  2^(1/4) ≈ 1.189207

The instantaneous growth rate is the natural log of this:

  ln(1.189207) ≈ 0.1733 . . . per day

Josie bought four lollipops for 65 cents each. She paid with a five-dollar bill. How many cents will she get back?
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

240 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

cost of one lollipop = 65 cents

total amount Josie need to paid = 65 * 4 cents = 260 cents

amount Josie gave  = $5

As we know

$1 = 100 cents

$5 = 100 * 5 cents

    = 500 cents

number of cents Josie will get back

500 - 260

240 cents or $2.40

So, Josie will get 240 cents back
