C) closest to 2/5.
2/3 is bigger than half 2/10 would be like less than 1/4
i have know clue what it is
Well nine times 199 is 1,791but im not sure if thats what its asking
It will take 6 years for that to happen.
You can find this by setting Nichole's age as x and Sophie's age as x + 28 since she will always be 28 years older.
Now we are looking for a time that Sophie's age is equal to 2 less than 6 times Nichole's age. So we can set up the below equation.
6(x) - 2 = x + 28
6x - 2 = x + 28
5x - 2 = 28
5x = 30
x = 6
This let's us know that it needs to be when Nichole is 6, which is 6 years in the future.
This is just like an exponential growth equation...
Final=initial*rate^periods
25000=12500(1.0525)^t
2=1.0525^t
ln2=t ln1.0525
t=ln2/ln1.0525
t=13.55
t=14 yrs
