put a 1 under the 13, so it is 13/1, and 5 5/6, turn it into an improper fraction by multiplying 5x6=30. then 30+5, which is 35. so just keep the denominator, which would be 35/6. so you would have 13/1 - 35/6. you need the same denominator, so see what both 1 and 6 would fit into. which is 6. so 13x6 which is 78, so 78/6 - 35/6, so 78-35 is 43. so 43/6, then simplify, which is 7 1/6
Rajid it is (e) 3/4 and please follow me I need a follower
<span>idk why they want the dratted "k" . it is so simple w/o it !
in the form y = ab^x, a = 4000, b = 4400/4000 = 1.1, x = t/2
N = 4000*1.1^(13/2) = 7432 <------
-----------------
now you won't be satisfied with simplicity, so
4400 = 4000e^2k
e^2k = 1.1
k = ln 1.1/2 = .0477 to 4 dp
N(13) = 4000e^(13*.0477) = 7436 <------
note that apart from a roundabout way, you get a less accurate ans !</span>
The answer is m = -59/42
