Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The compound interest formula is equal to
where
A is the Final Investment Value
P is the Principal amount of money to be invested
r is the rate of interest in decimal
t is Number of Time Periods
n is the number of times interest is compounded per year
in this problem we have
substitute in the formula above
solve for t
Simplify
Apply log both sides
Apply property of logarithms
Here a right angled triangle given. We know that one angle of a right angled triangle is 90°.
As the sum of three angles of a triangle is 180°, so we can say the sum of other two angles of a right angled triangle is (180-90)° = 90°.
Here in the figure the other two angles given and
. Sum of these two angles is 90°.
So we can write the equation as,
We have to remove the parenthesis now.
Now we will add the like terms. Here x and 2x are like terms. By adding them we will get,
To solve it for x, now we have to move 15 to the other side by subtracting it from both sides.
Now to get x, we have to move 3 to the other side, by dividing it to both sides.
We have got the required value of x.
The solution is x= 25.
