Answer:

n = 290

Step-by-step explanation:

Cq = P[(1 + r) ^ (4n) – 1]

  • Cq is the quarterly compounded interest (Triple $1000 = <u>$3000</u>)
  • P would be the principal amount <u>($1000)</u>
  • r is the quarterly compounded rate of interest <u>(0.12%)</u>
  • n is the number of periods <u>(Unknown)</u>

<u />

Let's solve!

Cq = P[(1 + r) ^ (4n) – 1]

$3000 = $1000 * [(1 + 0.12%) ^ (4 * n) - 1]

3 = [(1 + 0.12%) ^ (4 * n) - 1]

3 = (1 + 0.12%) ^ (4 * n) - 1

4 = (1 + 0.12%) ^ (4 * n)

4 = (1 + 0.0012) ^ (4 * n)

4 = (1.0012) ^ (4 * n)

4 = (1.0012) ^ (4n)

Take a log to get rid of the n in the exponent

(1.0012) ^ (4n) = 4

log[(1.0012) ^ (4n)] = log(4)

4n * log(1.0012) = log(4)

4n = log(4) / log(1.0012)

4n = 0.60206 / 0.0005208

4n = 1156.02919

n ≈ 289.007297

Since the question asks how long it will take, you will round up, as it won't be fully tripled by 289, only by 290.

HELP PLEASE ILL GIVE THE BRAINLIEST TO WHOEVER ANSWERS CORRECTLY!!!
drek231 [11]

Answer:

D. translation, yes

Step-by-step explanation:

A is out because the shapes are congruent, and if the figure was reflected, it would have been closer to the y-axis. It is the same with B, if the figure was dilated, the second figure would have been similar but not congruent. C is out because the figure is still facing the same direction.

Staci is attending a music festival. The ticket to the festival costs $87.96. Staci plans to purchase $30.00 t-shirts from the e
ollegr [7]
Initial cash on hand : $200.00
Ticket cost : $87.96
T-shirt cost per piece: $30.00

The first thing Staci needs to do is to deduct the cost of the ticket from her money.

$200  - 87.96 = $112.04

Stacy has the extra amount of 112.04 to purchase t-shirts. Since, each t-shirt costs $30. To know the number of shirts she can buy, she must divide the difference by 30.

$112.04 / $30 = 3.73

Based from the quotient, Stacy can buy 3 t-shirts.

$30 * 3 = $90 total cost of the tshirts.

$112.04 - 90 = $22.04

After buying the ticket and 3 tshirts, Staci has an excess of $22.04 from her $200.

Which table represents la linear function?
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

I believe it would be the last table.

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear function has an equation of y=Mx+b where y and x are the variables but m (the slope) and b are constants. The slope for the last table is -8 as the y values are decreasing by 8 every time you move forward one in the x axis. None of the other tables have a constant slope which means they don’t have straight lines when you graph them. Therefore, the last table would have to be the only one representing a linear function
