Suppose that $2000 is placed in a savings account at an annual rate of 4.6%, compounded quarterly. Assuming that no withdrawals

are made, how long will it take for the account to grow to $3000? Do not round any intermediate computations, and round your answer to the nearest hundredth.
If necessary, refer to the list of financial formulas.

Answer:

It will take 35.46 quarters for the account to grow to $3000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the annual rate is compounded quarterly, this can be calculated using the formula for calculating the future value as follows:

FV = PV * (1 + r)^n ............................ (1)

Where;

FV = future value or the amount the deposit expected to grow to = $3,000

PV = Present value or the amount place in the savings = $2,000

r = Quarterly rate = Annual rate / 4 = 4.6% / 4 = 0.046 / 4 = 0.0115

n = number of quarters it will take for the loan to grow to $3000 = ?

Substituting the values into equation (1) and solve for n, we have:

$3,000 = $2,000 * (1 + 0.0115)^n

$3,000 / $2,000 = (1.0115)^n

1.50 = (1.0115)^n

Loglinearise both sides, we have:

log(1.50) = n log(1.0115)

0.176091259055681 = n * 0.00496588710682352

n = 0.176091259055681 / 0.00496588710682352

n = 35.4601816891322

Rounding to the nearest hundredth, which also implies to rounding to 2 decimal places, we have:

n = 35.46

Since the the annual rate is compounded quarterly, it will therefore take 35.46 quarters for the account to grow to $3000.

My teacher wouldn't help me.. and this is my last question. I need to know how to find the perimeter of the geometric figure (it
nika2105 [10]
This isn't really a geometry problem.  It's just an addition of fractions.

You know that 'perimeter' means 'the distance all the way around'.
And you know the length of all the sides of the parallelogram.
All you need to do is add them up !

(13/12) + (3/13) + (13/12) + (3/13) = the perimeter

Notice that two of the sides are equal, and the other two sides are also equal.
So you can make the job a little easier if you add up the twelfths first

(13/12) + (13/12) = 26/12

and then add up the thirteenths ...

(3/13) + (3/13) = 6/13 .

Now, the perimeter looks a little bit less complicated.
It's just
                   (26/12) + (6/13) = the perimeter.

This is the tough part.  Before you can add fractions, they need to have
a common denominator. 

The smallest common denominator for 12ths and 13ths is  <em>156 </em>!
Change each fraction to (<em>something over 156</em>), and add um up.
I'll leave that part to you.
