Answer:
(a) A = 700×1.015^t
(b) 36.2 years
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) Each year, the account value is multiplied by (1 + 1.5%) = 1.015. Repeated multiplication is signified using an exponent. In t years, when the account has been multiplied by 1.015 t times, the account value will be ...
A = $700×1.015^t
__
(b) You want to find t when A=$1200. Logarithms are involved.
1200 = 700×1.015^t . . . . use 1200 for A
1200/700 = 1.015^t . . . . . divide by 700
log(12/7) = t×log(1.015) . . . . . take logarithms
log(12/7)/log(1.015) = t ≈ 36.2 . . . . divide by the coefficient of t
It will take about 36.2 years for the account balance to reach $1200.
First, determine the weight of 330 cans with the given conditions,
(330 cans) x (4 lbs / 100 cans) = 13.2 lbs
Then, the price is determined by multiplying this weight to the price that the recycling center is paying,
(13.2 lbs) x (25 cents / lb) = 330 cents = $3.3
Thus, Robert will be paid $3.3.
To find the solutions to this equation, we can apply the quadratic formula. This quadratic formula solves equations of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0
x = [ -b ± √(b^2 - 4ac) ] / (2a)
x = [ -15 ± √((15)^2 - 4(2)(4)) ] / ( 2(2) )
x = [-15 ± √(225 - (32) ) ] / ( 4 )
x = [-15 ± √(193) ] / ( 4)
x = [-15 ± sqrt(193) ] / ( 4 )
x = -15/4 ± sqrt(193)/4
The answers are -15/4 + sqrt(193)/4 and -15/4 - sqrt(193)/4.
Answer:
1. 3, because 30 divided by 10 is 3.
2-6, What is the recipe? By understanding the OG recipe I can multiply every number by three.
You can put the recipe in the comments and I will edit this answer. :)
