Answer:
133.33 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Principal = $500
Interest rate (r) = 1.5% = 0.015
Triple amount of principal = $500 * 3 = $1500 = final amount (A)
Number of years (t) =?
Using the relation :
A = P(1 + rt)
1500 = 500(1 + 0.015t)
1500 / 500 = 1 + 0.015t
3 = 1 + 0.015t
3 - 1= 0.015t
2 = 0.015t
2 / 0.015 = 0.015t / 0.015
133.333 = t

This is always ''interesting'' If you see an absolute value, you always need to deal with when it is zero:
(x-4)=0 ===> x=4,
so that now you have to plot 2 functions!
For x<= 4: what's inside the absolute value (x-4) is negative, right?, then let's make it +, by multiplying by -1:
|x-4| = -(x-4)=4-x
Then:
for x<=4, y = -x+4-7 = -x-3
for x=>4, (x-4) is positive, so no changes:
y= x-4-7 = x-11,
Now plot both lines. Pick up some x that are 4 or less, for y = -x-3, and some points that are 4 or greater, for y=x-11
In fact, only two points are necessary to draw a line, right? So if you want to go full speed, choose:
x=4 and x= 3 for y=-x-3
And just x=5 for y=x-11
The reason is that the absolute value is continuous, so x=4 works for both:
x=4===> y=-4-3 = -7
x==4 ====> y = 4-11=-7!
abs() usually have a cusp int he point where it is =0
Hope it helps, despite being this long!
Answer:
I think it is -10
Step-by-step explanation:
Using a^m*a^n=a^(m+n)
b=(m+n)
In this question,
m= -8 and n= -2
so b= (m+n)=(-8+-2) = -10
Answer: 2,3,5
Step-by-step explanation:
the prime factorization of 60 is 2 × 2 × 3 × 5, which can be written as 2 squared × 3 × 5.
