<h3>Answer:  23 years</h3>

=======================================================

Work Shown:

P = 1000 is the amount deposited

We want this value to double to A = 2000 which is the amount in the account at time t (in years).

r = 0.03 represents the interest rate in decimal form.

The value of t is unknown but we can solve for it like so

A = Pe^{rt}\\\\2000 = 1000e^{0.03t}\\\\2 = e^{0.03t}\\\\\ln(2) = \ln\left(e^{0.03t}\right)\\\\\ln(2) = 0.03t\ln\left(e\right)\\\\\ln(2) = 0.03t*1\\\\\ln(2) = 0.03t\\\\

0.03t = \ln(2)\\\\t = \frac{\ln(2)}{0.03}\\\\t \approx 23.1049060186649\\\\t \approx 23\\\\

It will take about 23 years for the amount to double.

As a check,

A = 1000e^{0.03t}\\\\A \approx 1000e^{0.03*23.104906}\\\\A \approx 1,999.9999988806\\\\A \approx 2000\\\\

which helps show that after roughly 23 years, we'll have about 2000 dollars in the account.

------------

Side note: Use of the rule of 72 leads to 72/3 = 24. The '3' is from the 3% interest rate. So the rule of 72 says it will take about 24 years for the amount to double. This isn't too far off from the 23 answer we got.

Given the following exponential function, identify whether the change represents growth or decay, and determine the percentage r
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

  • Decay
  • Decrease rate is 8%

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given function:</u>

  • y = 490(0.92)^x

The base of the exponent is 0.92. This represents a decay as 0.92 is less than 1. It would be a growth function is the base was greater than 1.

<u>The rate of decrease is </u>

  • 0.92 times

<u>Percent decrease is </u>

  • (1 - 0.92)*100% = 8%

so

using a proportion

Find out how many stations represent a percentage of 100%

\frac{6}{25\%}=\frac{x}{100\%}\\\\x=6(100)/25\\\\x=24\ stations
