Answer: below

Step-by-step explanation: You simply need to divide the total amount of sugar (9 lbs) by the amount that you put into each bag (2/3 lb). This expression looks kind of ugly in this form, so let's instead multiply 9 by the reciprocal of 2/3, which in this case is 3/2. The reciprocal of any number is just 1 divided by the number.

geniusboy [140]
6 Cucumbers = $2
 $2/6 = $0.33 per cucumber
12 peppers= $9
$9/12= $0.75 per pepper
6 tomatoes= $4
$4/6= $0.66 per tomatoes
9 cucumbers= $2.97
18 peppers= $13.5
21 tomatoes=$13.86
Total= (2.97+13.5+13.86)----> $30.33

How long will it take for an investment to triple if it is compounded continuously at 12%
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

9.694 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the investment is $P.

So, we are asked to determine the time it will grow to triple with the compound interest rate of 12%.

Let the time is y years.

So, from the formula of compound interest we can write

3P = P(1 + \frac{12}{100} )^{y}

⇒ (1 + \frac{12}{100} )^{y} = 3

⇒ (1.12)^{y} = 3

Now, taking log both sides we get,

y log 1.12 = log 3 {Since, \log a^{b} = b \log a }

⇒ 0.04922y = 0.477712

⇒ y = 9.694 years (Answer)
