Answer: 17 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential equation for compund amount( compunded continuously):

$A=Pe^{rt}$ , where P= Principal value , r= rate of interest , t= time.

Given: A= 2P

r =4%= 0.04

To find : t

Substitute all values in the formula , we get

$2P=Pe^{0.04t}\\\\\Rightarrow\ 2=e^{0.04t}$

Taking natural log on both sides

$\ln2=\ln e^{0.04t }\\\\\Rightarrow\ 0.693147=0.04t\\\\\Rightarrow\ t=\dfrac{ 0.693147}{0.04}\\\\\Rightarrow\ t=17.3286\approx17$

hence, it will take 17 years (approx).

Asap help.! Circle measurements

Margaret [11]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the value of x;

To get this, we simply use one of the circle angle and arc properties

Mathematically;

arc MN = 2 * arc MLN

3x + 22 = 134/2

That will be;

3x + 22 = 67

3x = 67-22

3x = 45

x = 45/3

x = 15

This questionn please

nasty-shy [4]

Let X be the total number of guests
$\frac{1}{3} x + \frac{5x}{12} + 23 \\ \frac{12x + 15x + 828}{36} \\ \frac{17x + 828}{36}$
when X =1
(17+828)/36
845/36=23.5
am sorry but the question is not that clear
pls mark as brainliest

Help me with differentation and integration please!!

Marina86 [1]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

$\dfrac{d}{dx} (\tan^3 x) = 3\sec^4 x - 3\sec^2 x$

Recall

$\dfrac{d}{dx}\tan x=\sec^2$

Using the chain rule

$\dfrac{dy}{dx}= \dfrac{dy}{du} \dfrac{du}{dx}$

such that $u = \tan x$

we can get a general formulation for

$y = \tan^n x$

Considering the power rule

$\boxed{\dfrac{d}{dx} x^n = nx^{n-1}}$

we have

$\dfrac{dy}{dx} =n u^{n-1} \sec^2 x \implies \dfrac{dy}{dx} =n \tan^{n-1} \sec^2 x$

therefore,

$\dfrac{d}{dx}\tan^3 x=3\tan^2x \sec^2x$

Now, once

$\sec^2 x - 1= \tan^2x$

we have

$3\tan^2x \sec^2x = 3(\sec^2 x - 1) \sec^2x = 3\sec^4x-3\sec^2x$

Hence, we showed

$\dfrac{d}{dx} (\tan^3 x) = 3\sec^4 x - 3\sec^2 x$

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

For the integration,

$\int \sec^4 x\, dx$

considering the previous part, we will use the identity

$\boxed{\sec^2 x - 1= \tan^2x}$

thus

$\int\sec^4x\,dx=\int \sec^2 x(\tan^2x+1)\,dx = \int \sec^2 x \tan^2x+\sec^2 x\,dx$

and

$\int \sec^2 x \tan^2x+\sec^2 x\,dx = \int \sec^2 x \tan^2x\,dx + \int \sec^2 x\,dx$

Considering $u = \tan x$

and then $du=\sec^2x\ dx$

we have

$\int u^2 \, du = \dfrac{u^3}{3}+C$

Therefore,

$\int \sec^2 x \tan^2x\,dx + \int \sec^2 x\,dx = \dfrac{\tan^3 x}{3}+\tan x + C$

$\boxed{\int \sec^4 x\, dx = \dfrac{\tan^3 x}{3}+\tan x + C }$
