If B is the midpoint of AC, then AB = BC.

We have AB = x + 5 and BC = 2x - 11.

Therefore we have the equation:

x + 5 = 2x - 11       <em>subtract 5 from both sides</em>

x = 2x - 16       <em>subtract 2x from both sides</em>

-x = -16      <em>change the signs</em>

x = 16

Put the value of x to the expression x + 5:

AB = 16 + 5 = 21

<h3>Answer: AB = 21</h3>

Please help this for my pre calculus finals
dsp73

Answer:

a) It will take 17.71 years

b) It will take 17.58 years

c) I will earn $6.60 more in compound continuously

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Lets talk about the compound interest

- The formula for compound interest is A = P (1 + r/n)^(nt)

, Where:

- A = the future value of the investment, including interest

- P = the principal investment amount (the initial deposit)

- r = the annual interest rate (decimal)

- n = the number of times that interest is compounded per unit t

- t = the time the money is invested

* Lets solve the problem

∵ The money deposit is $2000

∵ The rate is 6.25%

∵ The interest is compound quarterly

∵ The future value is $6000

∴ P = 2000

∴ A = 6000

∴ r = 6.25/100 = 0.0625

∴ n = 4

∴ t = ?

∵ A = P (1 + r/n)^(nt)

∴ 6000 = 2000 (1 + 0.0625/4)^4t ⇒ divide both sides by 2000

∴ 3 = (1.015625)^4t ⇒ insert ㏑ for both sides

∴ ㏑(3) = ㏑(1.015625)^4t

∵ ㏑(a)^b = b ㏑(a)

∴ ㏑(3) = 4t ㏑(1.015625) ⇒ divide both sides by ㏑(1.015625)

∴ 4t = ㏑(3)/㏑(1.015625) ⇒ divide both sides by 4

∴ t = [㏑(3)/㏑(1.015625)] ÷ 4 = 17.71

* It will take 17.71 years

b) Lets talk about the compound continuous interest  

- Compound continuous interest can be calculated using the formula:

  A = P e^rt  

- A = the future value of the investment, including interest

- P = the principal investment amount (the initial amount)

- r = the interest rate  

- t = the time the money is invested

* Lets solve the problem

∵ The money deposit is $2000

∵ The rate is 6.25%

∵ The interest is compound continuously

∵ The future value is $6000

∴ P = 2000

∴ A = 6000

∴ r = 6.25/100 = 0.0625

∴ t = ?

∵ A = P e^rt  

∴ 6000 = 2000 e^(0.0625 t) ⇒ divide both sides by 2000

∴ 3 = e^(0.0625 t) ⇒ insert ㏑ to both sides

∴ ㏑(3) = ㏑[e^0.0625 t]

∵ ㏑(e^a) = a ㏑(e) ⇒ ㏑(e) = 1 , then ㏑(e^a) = a

∴ ㏑(3) = 0.0625 t ⇒ divide both sides by 0.0625

∴ t = ㏑(3)/0.0625 = 17.5778

* It will take 17.58 years

c) If t = 5 years

# The compound quarterly:

∵ A = P (1 + r/n)^(nt)

∴ A = 2000 (1 + 0.0625/4)^(4×5)

∴ A = 2000 (1.015625)^20 = $2727.08

# Compound continuously

∵ A = P e^(rt)

∴ A = 2000 e^(0.0625×5) = $2733.68

∴ I will earn = 2733.68 - 2727.08 = $6.60

* I will earn $6.60 more in compound continuously

A pet store sells mice reptiles and birds
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

P(A or B) represents the probability that a customer will buy either a mouse or a reptile at the pet store.  So, there is a 20%, or 1 out 5 chance that a customer will buy either one when they come in to purchase a pet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability represents the fraction of the desired number of outcomes over the total number of outcomes.  In the case of the pet store, their total outcomes can be the purchase of a mouse, reptile or bird.  We don't know how much of each animal they have, however, they tell us that the probability that a customer will buy either a mouse OR a reptile is 0.20.  This means that the probability of buying a mouse and the probability of buying a reptile are added together to equal 0.20 or 20% which is also 1/5.
