So the mean is 72.97

We need to subtract the mean from each value and square it.
(65-72.97)^2= 63.5209
(68-72.97)^2=24.7009
(69-72.97)^2=15.7609
(70-72.97)^2=8.8209
(71-72.97)^2= 3.8809
(72-72.97)^2=0.9409
(90-72.97)^2=290.0209
(95-72.97)^2=485.3209

Now we add up the new values ( also consider their frequency) and find their mean.
Add the values
63.5209+(2 •24.7009=49.4018)+(5•15.7609=78.8045)+(8•8.8209=70.5672)+(7•3.8809=27.1663)+(3•0.9409=2.8227)+(2•290.0209=580.0418)+(2•485.3209=970.6418)= 1,842.967
Divide by total numburs to find the mean
1,842.967/ 30=61.43223333

The standar deviation is the square root of the mean so is
Square root of 61.43223333=7.837871735
Round to the nearest tenth
Standard Deviation is 7.8

A person invests $2,740 in an account that earns 4.3% annual interest. Find when the value of the investment reaches $7,000. If
Juli2301 [7.4K]

So, to set up your equation is the hardest part. If you remember the basic format, you're set.

I(t) = P * (1+r%)^t

t= time and this will be our variable

Initial amount P = $2740

Rate = 4.3% which converts numerically into .043

I(t) = 7000

Before we get to find out how to find how many years it takes to get to $7000, set up the basic equation by plugging in what we know.


I(t) = $2740(1+4.3%)^t

I(t)=2740(1.043)^t

Now plug in for $7000 for I(t)

7000=2740(1.043)^t                 Divide both sides by 2740

7000/2740 = 2740/2740(1.043)^t

2.55474453=(1.043)^t

Now you can solve for t in two ways. You can either use the natural log or graph it on your graphing calculate and see when the two equations meet.

In your calculator you can set up:

ln(2.55474453)/ln(1.043) = t                 which is the method I prefer since it's much simpler

t=22.278528

but you can also graph it in your ti-84

with

y1=2.55474453

y2=(1.043)^x

and find where they intersect on the graph.

either way it'll be the same answer
