Answer:

-36

Step by step :

multiply each term

-1 x -2 = -2 -18 / -2 = 9 to get the third term

-2 x -9 = -18

-2 x -18 = -36

-1, -2, -9, -18, -36

the first to fifth term in all

Answer:

0.31 yr

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for interest compounded continuously is

$FV = PVe^{rt}$

FV = future value, and

PV = present value

If FV is twice the PV, we can calculate the doubling time, t

$\begin{array}{rcl}2 & = & e^{rt}\\\ln 2 & = & rt\\t & = & \dfrac{\ln 2}{r} \\\end{array}$

1. Brianna's doubling time

$\begin{array}{rcl}t & = & \dfrac{\ln 2}{0.065}\\\\& = & \textbf{10.663 yr}\\\end{array}$

2. Adam's doubling time

The formula for interest compounded periodically is

$FV = PV\left (1 + \dfrac{r}{n} \right )^{nt}$

where

n = the number of payments per year

If FV is twice the PV, we can calculate the doubling time.

$\begin{array}{rcl}2 & = & \left (1 + \dfrac{0.0675}{4} \right )^{4t}\\\\&= & (1 + 0.016875 )^{4t}\\& = & 1.016875^{4t}\\\ln 2& = & 4 (\ln 1.01688)\times t \\& = & 0.066937t\\t& = & \dfrac{\ln 2}{0.066937}\\\\& = & \textbf{10.355 yr}\\\end{array}$

3. Brianna's doubling time vs Adam's

10.663 - 10.355 = 0.31 yr

It would take 0.31 yr longer for Brianna's money to double than Adam's.

Bodie Raptor's Iphone 11 has 4/5 of the battery still remaining. His phone battery drains at a rate of 1/3 every hour. If he use

Nikolay [14]

Answer:

$2\frac{2}{5}$ hours, or 1 hours and 24 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

4/5 battery remaining

drains at rate of 1/3 per hour

$\frac{1}{3}h=\frac{4}{5}\\\frac{3}{1}(\frac{1}{3}h)=\frac{3}{1}*\frac{4}{5}\\h=\frac{3*4}{1*5}=\frac{12}{5}=2\frac{2}{5}$

He has 2 2/5 hours or 2 hours and 24 minutes left until his phone dies. (A fifth of an hour is 12 minutes and we have 2/5 to deal with, so 12 times 2 is 24 mins.)
