An initial investment of $100,000 at 12% interest is compounded weekly (use 52 weeks in a year). What will the investment be wor
ozzi

Answer:

$3644675.9

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial investment is $100000. The interest rate is 12%.  

We are asked to determine the final amount the investment will become after 30 years if the interest is compounded weekly.

The weekly interest rate is \frac{12}{52} = 0.231%.

Assuming 1 year equivalent to 52 weeks.

Hence, using the formula of compound interest the final sum will be  

100000(1 + \frac{0.231}{100} )^{(30 \times 52)}

= $3644675.9 (Approximate)

balandron [24]

The population of Saya islands after 4 months will be 8,100 people.

It is given in the question that:-

Initial population of Saya island = 100 people

The population of the Saya island tripled every month

We have to find the population of the island after 4 months.

The population of Saya island after 1 month = 100*3 = 300 people.

The population of Saya island after 2 months = 300*3 = 900 people.

The population of Saya island after 3rd months = 900*3 = 2,700 people.

The population of Saya island after 4th months = 2700*3 = 8,100 people.
