Answer:

To multiply fractions, all you have to do is multiply the numerators and denominators and simplify the result. To divide fractions, you simply have to flip the numerator and denominator of one of the fractions, multiply the result by the other fraction, and simplify.

Compound interest In Exercise,$3000 is invested in an account at interest rate r,compounded continuously.Find the time required

xenn [34]

Answer:

(a) 8.15

(b) 12.92

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: P = $3000, r = 0.085

$A = Pe^{rt}$

Where

A is the Amount

P is the Principal

r is the rate

t is the time

(a) For the amount to double, A = 2 × P

A = 2 × $3000

A = $6000

$6000 = 3000e^{0.085t}$

$\frac{6000}{3000} = e^{0.085t}$

$2 = e^{0.085t}$

Take $log_{e}$ of both sides

$log_{e}2 = log_{e}e^{0.085t}$

But $log_{e}e = 1$

∴ $ln2 = 0.085t$

$t = \frac{ln2}{0.085}$

$t = \frac{0.693}{0.085}$

t = 8.15

(b) For the amount to double, A = 3 × P

A = 3 × $3000

A = $9000

$9000 = 3000e^{0.085t}$

$\frac{9000}{3000} = e^{0.085t}$

$3 = e^{0.085t}$

Take $log_{e}$ of both sides

$log_{e}3 = log_{e}e^{0.085t}$

But $log_{e}e = 1$

∴ $ln3 = 0.085t$

$t = \frac{ln3}{0.085}$

$t = \frac{1.0986}{0.085}$

t = 12.92
