\$2000 will become \$4000 in 19.80 years that is approximately 20 years when compounded continuously at the annual interest rate of 3.5\%

<u>Solution: </u>

Given that  

Amount investe by Annabell = \$2000,

Rate if interest = 3.5\% = 0.035  

Required \ amount = double \ of \ investment = 2\times \$2000 = \$4000

And most important thing that interest is compounded continuously . Formula of Amount where interest is compounded continuously is as follows ,

\mathrm{A}=\mathrm{P} e^{\mathrm{r}{t}}

Where A is final amount,  

P is principal Amount,

r = rate of interest  

And t = duration in years

In our case A = \$4000; \ P = \$2000; \ r = 0.035  

Need to evaluate t that is number of year.

On substituting given values in formula of amount we get

\begin{array}{l}{4000=2000 e^{0.035 t}} \\\\ {=>\frac{4000}{2000}=e^{0.035 t}} \\\\ {\Rightarrow 2=e^{0.035 t}}\end{array}

Taking log both the sides,  

\ln (2)=0.035 \mathrm{t} \times \ln (\mathrm{e})

\Rightarrow \mathrm{t}=\frac{\ln (2)}{0.035}==19.80

That is approximately 20 years.

Can someone help. I’m having trouble with the equation part
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

(x+3) x+7 is the answer for the first question if it's the same way my school does it. Whatever you put in parentheses is the opposite of what you think. + is going to the left. - is going to the right but those only apply when in parentheses.

Pedro has determined that the probability his shot will score in a lacrosse game is 0.30.
Igoryamba

For two shots Pedro has four outcomes:

<u>1 shot | 2 shot</u>

score | score

score | not score

not score | score

not score | not score

The probability Pedro's shot will score in a lacrosse game is 0.30 and the probability his shot will not score in a lacrosse game is 1-0.30=0.70. So you can count probabilities for all cases:

1. 0.3·0.3=0.09;

2. 0.3·0.7=0.21;

3. 0.7·0.3=0.21;

4. 0.7·0.7=0.49.

In total 0.09+0.21+0.21+0.49=1. The first outcomes is that what you need.

Answer: 0.09.

Hunter-Best [27]
Unless this is a trick question, I think 7 baskets. If you have 7 baskets then you can put 5 peaches in each basket. Hope this is right.
