Answer: D) cube root of 16
================================================
Explanation:
The rule we use is
![x^{m/n} = \sqrt[n]{x^m}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%5E%7Bm%2Fn%7D%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5Bn%5D%7Bx%5Em%7D)
In this case, x = 4, m = 2 and n = 3.
So,
![x^{m/n} = \sqrt[n]{x^m}\\\\\\4^{2/3} = \sqrt[3]{4^2}\\\\\\4^{2/3} = \sqrt[3]{16}\\\\\\](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%5E%7Bm%2Fn%7D%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5Bn%5D%7Bx%5Em%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C4%5E%7B2%2F3%7D%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B4%5E2%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C4%5E%7B2%2F3%7D%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B16%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C)
Showing that the original expression turns into the cube root of 16.
For this case we have the following equation:
P (t) = P (1 + r / n) ^ (n * t)
Where,
P: initial investment
r: interest
n: periods
t: time
she will take on her 45th birthday:
for t = 25:
P (25) = 1000 * (1 + 0.0165 / 4) ^ (4 * 25)
P (25) = 1509.31 $
Answer:
The future value of this investment when she takes her trip is:
P (25) = 1509.31 $
The numbers given in the problem above are part of an arithmetic sequence with first and sixth terms equal to -21 and -36, respectively. Firstly, calculate for the common difference (d).
d = (-36 - -21) / (6 - 1) = -3
The arithmetic mean is calculated by adding -3 to the term prior to it.
a2 = -21 + -3 = -24 a3 = -24 + -3 = -27
a4 = -27 + -3 = -30 a5 = -30 + -3 = -33
Thus the four arithmetic means are -24, -27, -30, and -33.
87 / 114 = x / 9918....87 people to 114 = x people to 9918
cross multiply
(114)9x) = (87)(9918)
114x = 862866
x = 862866/114
x = 7569 <===
