Answer:

20 years

Step-by-step explanation:

We start by writing an exponential equation;

FV = PV( 1 + r)^t

FV is the future value = 1,000,000

PV is present value = 372,000

r is rate = 5% = 5/100 = 0.05

t is time which we are looking for

1,000,000 = 372,000(1 + 0.05)^t

1.05^t = 1,000,000/372,000

1.05^t = 2.688

t ln 1.05 = ln 2.688

t = ln 2.688/ln 1.05

t = 20 years

I need help solving this problem

Ludmilka [50]

G(f(2)) means work out whatever f(2) is then plug this into g(x).

So f(2) is 3 because we just find the x-value 2 in the left hand column and read across. This is 3.

So then we find g(3) by finding the x-value 3 in the left hand column and read across. This is 10.

So g(f(2)) = 10

For this case we have, by definition:

$a^{-b} =\frac{1}{a ^ b}$
