Suppose that it will take n years for Dave's investment to be equal to Len's;
thus using the compound interest formula we shall have:
A=p(1+r/100)^n
thus the investment for Len after n year will be:
A=5200(1+3/100)^n
A=5200(1.03)^n

The total amount Dave's amount after n years will be:
A=3600(1+5/100)^n
A=3600(1.05)^n
since after n years the investments will be equal, the value of n will be calculated as follows;
5200(1.03)^n=3600(1.05)^n
5200/3600(1.03)^n=(1.05)^n
13/9(1.03)^n=(1.05)^n
introducing the natural logs we get:
ln(13/9)+n ln1.03=n ln 1.05
ln(13/9)=n ln 1.05-n ln 1.03
ln(13/9)=0.0192n
n=[ln(13/9)]/[0.0192]
n=19.12
thus the amount will be equal after 19 years

Answer:

\frac{-47}{6} = 7.833

Step-by-step explanation:

Expression given is:

-4\frac{2}{3} -(3\frac{1}{6})

Now change the mixed fraction to improper fractions;

-\frac{14}{3} -\frac{19}{6}

Now take a common denominator:

-\frac{28}{6} -\frac{19}{6}

Now we can simplify the the above equation:

\frac{-28-19}{6}

\frac{-47}{6} = 7.833

Brut [27]
The order of these numbers from smallest to largest is:

(-1)2, -1 2/5, -1.4, (1/2)2


-1 2/5 and -1.4 are technically the same, though.

If f(x) = g(x) - 2 , then *<br> g(x) = f(x) - 2<br> f(x) = g(x) + 2<br> g(x) = f(x) + 2
shusha [124]

Answer:

g(x) = f(x) + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To move the two to the other side of the equation, you have to add the two to both sides of the equation.  The 2 cancels out on the g(x) side, and a 2 is added to the f(x) side.
