Answer:
The equation is following the mathematical rule of multiplying exponents.
Step-by-step explanation:
As an example to back up the answer, when you have half of a dollar, that is $0.50, if you took a half (1/2) of $0.50 that would be one fourth (1/4) of a dollar, but half of 50 cents ($0.50) A similar thing is happening with this problem. When you have two numbers (2 and 4) when you multiply them together, they equal to eight (8) for this problem, when you multiply two exponents together, you are raising the coefficient (a real number like 6) to the power of 2, and then taking that number and multiplying it by the power of 4. This is similar to the half of 50 cents, is equal to 1/4 of dollar ($0.25)
Hope this helps explain multiplying exponents together, and the mathematical rule behind it.
After 4 years the rate would have happened 4 times making the initial deposit increase 10%. 10% of 25000 is 2500. So 25000 plus 2500 is $27500.
The expression x-4 will come out to be a negative integer. That means X <em>has to be </em>something that when 4 is taken away from it, the answer is still negative.
Let's try 5.
5-4 is 1. Is 1 negative? No, so that doesn't work.
4-4 is 0. 0 isn't negative either, so that doesn't work.
3-4 is -1. Is -1 negative? YES! Let's try it for 2 as well, just to be safe.
2-4 is -2. Still negative.
X can be anything less than 4.
Answer:
FV= 1,000*(1.12^n)
Step-by-step explanation:
Giving the following information:
Initial investment= $1,000
Increase rate= 12% = 0.12
We need to formulate an exponential equation to show the value in n years.
<u>To calculate the Future Value, we need to use the following formula:</u>
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
Being:
FV= Future Value
PV= Initial Investment
i= increase rate
n= number of periods
FV= 1,000*(1.12^n)
<u>For example, for one year:</u>
FV= 1,000*(1.12^1)
FV= $1,120
For 3 years:
FV= 1,000*(1.12^3)
FV= $1,404.93
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Finding max/min: There are two ways to find the absolute maximum/minimum value for f(x) = ax2 + bx + c: Put the quadratic in standard form f(x) = a(x − h)2 + k, and the absolute maximum/minimum value is k and it occurs at x = h. If a > 0, then the parabola opens up, and it is a minimum functional value of f.
