Answer:

8.31  weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the cost of one share of Apple stock, C=$120

Rate is the increment of the stock value, R= 5%/week=0.05 / week.

Assuming that after t week, the stock has been sold for $180.

Since the stock value increased at 5% every week, so, the interest is compounded weekly, so

S=C\left(1+R\right)^t \\\\ \Rightarrow 180 = 120\left(1+0.05\right)^t \\\\  \Rightarrow 180 = 120\left(1.05 )^t \\\\

\Rightarrow \frac{180}{120}=1.05^t \\\\\Rightarrow 1.5=1.05^t

\Rightarrow \ln(1.5)=t \ln(1.05) [taking log both sides]

\Rightarrow t=\frac {\ln(1.5)}{\ln(1.05)}=8.31 weeks

Hence, after 8.31  weeks the stock has been sold for $180.

Simplify (5x−2+3x^2)+(4x+3)
Art [367]

Answer:

3x^2 + 9x + 1

Or

3x ( x + 3 ) + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

(5x - 2 +3x^2 ) + (4x + 3 )

To make this a little bit more easier to read, you can remove the parentheses:

5x - 2 + 3x^2 + 4x + 3

Now, write in a way so that the like terms are next to each other:

3x^2 + 5x + 4x - 2 + 3

Now simplify the 'x' terms to get:

3x^2 + 9x - 2 + 3

Now, simplify the integers (the ones with now variables with them) to get:

3x^2 + 9x + 1

If you want, you can factor out the 3x for two of the terms to get :

3x ( x + 3 ) + 1

Therefore, your simplest form can either be 3x^2 + 9x + 1 OR 3x (x + 3 ) + 1
