How long does it take for an investment to quadruple in value if it is invested at 11% compounded

Mathematics
1 answer:
defon2 years ago
3 0

Let's assume we have $100 and an interest rate of 7%. For the $100 to quadruple it means that the future value would be $400. Thus, because we are talking about compounding daily we will set us the equation as follows:

100 * (1+1.07)x = 400

Then we will take 400 and divide it by 100 getting:

1.07X = 4

Now we have encountered a problem where we do not know exponent, so we will use logarithm to calculate such and transform our equation to: Log1.07(4)=X

Using our calculator we will find that it takes about 20.4895 days to quadruple the money invested under 7% interest rate compounded daily.

2nd: Using the same $100 but with the rate of 5.5% compounded continuously we will be using A=PERT formula

where:

P (principal) is equal to hypothetical $100

E (e) is a mathematical constant, which is approximately 2.718

R (rate) is the interest rate, in our case it is 5.5%

T (time) is the time required for money to grow

A (amount) is the final amount desired, which is 4 times larger of $100, thus $400

We have the following:

400 = 100 * e0.055t

400/100 = e0.055t

4 = e0.055t

Then we will apply natural log to both sides of the equations and get the following:

ln(4) = ln(e0.055t)

Since e is the base of ln(x) the equation simplifies to:

ln(4) = 0.055t

Using the calculator to find ln(4) we are getting:

1.38629 = 0.055t

Lastly find t

t = 1.38629/0.055

t = 25.20535202

Plug the answers back to the original equation to verify the answers.

1st part of the question answer: t = 20.4895

2nd part of the question answer: t = 25.20535202

A square pyramid has a height of 6 units and a volume of 70 units3. if a square prism has the same base area and volume as the s
goldfiish [28.3K]

The height of the square pyramid exists 2 units.

<h3>How to estimate the area of the base of the square pyramid?</h3>

Volume of the square pyramid

$V = \frac{1}{3}BH

where B exists in the area of the base  H lives at the height of the pyramid

we have H = 6 $$unit^3

V = 70 $$unit^3

substitute in the formula and solve for B, we get

$70 = \frac{1}{3}B(6)

B = $\frac{70}{2}

= 35 $$unit^3

To estimate the height of the square prism

Volume of the square prism = Bh

Where B exists the area of the base

h exists the height of the prism

we have B = 35 and V = 70

substitute in the formula and solve for h

70 = (35)h

h = 2 units.
