4x + 6 - 3 = 8
4x + 3 = 8
4x = 8 - 3
4x = 5
x = 5/4 <==

Brockman Corporation's earnings per share were $3.50 last year, and its growth rate during the prior 5 years was 7.0% per year.

fredd [130]

Answer:

The number of years it would take is $n = 2 \ years$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The earning per share is $P =$ $3.50

The growth rate is r = 7.0%

The duration is $t = 5 \ years$

Generally the future value is mathematically represented as

$A = P(1 + \frac{r}{100} )^n$

Where P is the present value

n is the time period

A is the future value which is mathematically evaluated as

$A = 3 * P$

substituting value

$A = 3 * 3.50$

$A =$ $ 10.5 0

$A = P(1 + \frac{r}{100} )^n$

$10.5 = 3.5(1 + \frac{7}{100} )^n$

$10.5 = 3.225^n$

Taking log of both sides

$log 10.5 = nlog 3.225$

$1.0212 = n(0.5085)$

$n = \frac{1.0212}{(0.5085)}$

$n = 2 \ years$

(Inscribed Angles)

Alik [6]

Answer:

(D) 30 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

An inscribed angle is an angle formed by two chords in a circle which have a common endpoint.

Theorem(Inscribed Angles Conjecture I): In a circle, the measure of an inscribed angle is half the measure of the central angle with the same intercepted arc.

By the theorem above and from the attached diagram,

Inscribed Angle p =Half of 60 degrees

$\angle p=0.5 X 60^\circ\\p=30^\circ$

The correct option is D.
