Answer: 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

From the attached graph:

D = (0, 4)

F = (3, 2)

After segment DF was dilated from the origin to create segment D'F'

D' = (0, 6)

F' = (4.5, 3)

Scale factor is obtained by calculating the proportion of the coordinates of the two segments. That is ;

Scale factor = value on dilated coordinate / value on original coordinate

Taking the x-coordinate of F and F':

Scale factor = coordinate 'x' of F' / coordinate 'x' of F

Scale factor = 4.5 / 3 = 1.5

Similarly,

Taking the y-coordinate of F and F':

Scale factor = coordinate 'y' of F' / coordinate 'y' of F

Scale factor = 3 / 2 = 1.5

A mixed number greater than 8.45? my answers are A. 8 3/8 <br> B. 8 4/9<br> C. 8 3/5 <br> D. 8 5/12
ASHA 777 [7]
8.45 = 8 45/100 = 8 9/20 = 169/20

A. 8 3/8 = 67/8
B. 8 4/9 = 76/9
C. 8 3/5 = 43/5
D. 8 5/12 = 101/12

The common denominator of all those fractions is 360, so we can write them as:

8.45 = 3042/360

A. 8 3/8 = 3015/360
B. 8 4/9 = 3040/360
C. 8 3/5 = 3096/360
D. 8 5/12 = 3030/360

As a mixed numbers:

8.45 = 8 162/360

A. 8 3/8 = 8 135/360
B. 8 4/9 = 8 160/360
C. 8 3/5 = 8 216/360
D. 8 5/12 = 8 150/360

Now we can easily see that only 8 216/360 is greater than 8 162/360. It means the correct answer is C: From the given mixed numbers, only 8 3/5 is greater than 8.45.

How long will it take for an investment to triple, if interest is compounded continuously at 8%?
maw [93]

Answer:

<em>It will take 14 years before the investment triples</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Continuous Compounding</u>

Is the mathematical limit that compound interest can reach if it was calculated and reinvested into an account's balance over a theoretically infinite number of periods.

The formula for continuous compounding is derived from the formula for the future value of a compound interest investment:

FV = PV\cdot e^{i.t}

Where:

FV = Future value of the investment

PV = Present value of the investment

i     = Interest rate

t     = Time

It's required to find the time for an investment to triple, that is, FV = 3 PV, knowing the interest rate is i=8%=0.08.

Substituting the known values:

3PV = PV\cdot e^{i.t}

Dividing by PV:

3 = e^{i.t}

Taking logarithms:

\ln 3=i.t

Solving for t:

\displaystyle t=\frac{\ln 3}{i}

\displaystyle t=\frac{\ln 3}{0.08}

t = 13.7 years

Rounding up:

It will take 14 years before the investment triples
