To solve, set an equation:
First Number: x
Second Number: 2x
x+2x=36
3x=36
divide both sides by 3
x=13
First Number: (x) 12
Second Number: (2x) 24
Answers: 12 and 24
question: An investment of $100 is now valued at $149.18 the interest rate is 8% per year, compounded continuously about how long has the money been invested
Answer:
5.2 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Applying
A = P(1+R/100)ⁿ.......................... Equation 1
Where A = amount, P = principle, R = rate, n = time.
From the question,
Given: A = $149.18, P = $100, R = 8%
Substitute these values into equation 1 and solve for n
149.18 = 100(1+8/100)ⁿ
149.18/100 = (1+8/100)ⁿ
1.4918 = (1+0.08)ⁿ
1.4918 = (1.08)ⁿ
Taking the Logarithm of both side
Log(1.4918) = Log(1.08)ⁿ
Log(1.4918) = nLog(1.08)
n = Log(1.4918)/Log(1.08)
n = 0.1737/0.0334
n = 5.2 years.
Answer:
48 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we divide 1.6 by 2 to see how much out of the hour we will walk. This equals 0.8. We have walked for 0.8 of an hour. An hour is 60 minutes. 60 minutes multiplied by 0.8 is 48. It takes 48 minutes to walk 1.6 miles at 2mph.
Answer:
The solution to the equation is:
- <u>x = 2.5</u> or <u>x = 5/2</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the solution to the equation, you only must operate the equation until you clear the x variable, with the next steps:
And we solve:
- 4x + 28 = 38 (we multiply 4 by x and 7)
- 4x = 38 - 28 (we pass the +28 to subtract to the right side of the equality and operate)
- x = 10 / 4 (we pass the 4 that is multiplying to divide to the right side of the equality)
- <u>x = 2.5</u> (we divide)
As you can see, <u><em>the solution of the equation is </em></u><u><em>x = 2.5</em></u><u><em> or </em></u><u><em>x = 5/2</em></u>
I believe that the best answer among the choices provided by the question is the second choice, <span>2.f^-1(3) when f(x)=2x+3/5</span>
