Answer:

100.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the interest is compounded quarterly, and there are 4 quarters per year, that would leave us with 32 quarters total where interest is acquired. Now, we need to find the interest rate, that would be required in order to end up with 420 dollars after 32 quarters.

We can setup a formula using our period of time and the money he invested into the bank:

340(x)^{32}=420

We can divide 340 from both sides, and simplify the right side to 21 divided by 17:

x^{32}=\frac{21}{17}

Taking the 32th root of 21/17 is equal to 1.00662, which is equal to 100.0662%. To the nearest tenth of a percent, this is equal to 100.7%.

For this kind of problems, first find the method to solve, then face the fractions.

If I jog 100 miles in a year, and I do 2 miles a day.  How many days did I jog?
We know easily that it is 100 days/ 2 miles/day = 50 days.
So the number of days is total distance / how much a day, or

6. A tank contains 100-gallon of pure water. At time t = 0, a solution containing 2 lb of salt per gallon flows into the tank at
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Q represent the amount of salt in the tank at time t.

\frac{dQ}{dt}= flow\ in - flow\ out\\ \\flow\ in=3\ gal/min*2\ lb/gal=6\ lb/min\\\\net\ gain\ in\ tank\ volume=3-4=-1, henceflow\ out= \frac{4Q}{100-t} \\\\\frac{dQ}{dt}= 6-\frac{4Q}{100-t} \\\\\frac{dQ}{dt}+ \frac{4Q}{100-t}=6\\\\The \ integrating\ factor\ is:\\\\IF=e^{\int\limits {\frac{4}{100-t} } \, dt }=e^{-4\int\limits {\frac{-1}{100-t}}=e^{-4ln(100-t)}=(100-t)^{-4}}\\\\Multiplying\ through  \ by\ IF: \\\\(100-t)^{-4}\frac{dQ}{dt}+ (100-t)^{-4}\frac{4Q}{100-t}=6(100-t)^{-4}\\\\

Integrating:\\\\A(100-t)^{-4}=-2(100-t)^{-3}+c\\\\A=-2(100-t)+\frac{c}{(100-t)^{-4}} \\\\at, t=0,A=0\\\\0=-2(100-0)+\frac{c}{(100-0)^{-4}}\\\\c=0.02\\\\A=-2(100-t)+\frac{0.02}{(100-t)^{-4}}
