The Johnson family wants to start a college fund for their daughter Gabriella. They put $63, 000 into an account that grows at a

rate of 2.55% per year, compounded quarterly. Given the function G(t)= 63,000(1+ .0255/4)^ 4t, where G(t) represents the amount of money in the account t years after the account is opened, given that no more money is deposited into or withdrawn from the account.
Calculate the number of years it will take for the account to reach approximately $150,000, to the nearest hundredth of a year.

Answer:

<em>It will take approximately 34.13 years</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The function G(t) below represents the amount of money in some account t years after the account is opened for The Johnson's daughter Gabriella:

G(t)= 63,000(1+ .0255/4)^ {4t}

It's required to find the number of years (t) it will take for the account to reach G(t)=150,000. We need to solve the equation:

63,000(1+ .0255/4)^ {4t}=150,000

Dividing by 63,000 and simplifying:

\displaystyle (1+ .0255/4)^ {4t}=\frac{150,000}{63,000}=2.38095

Taking logarithms:

\displaystyle \log(1+ .0255/4)^ {4t}=\log 2.38095

Applying logarithms property:

\displaystyle (4t) \log(1+ .0255/4)=\log 2.38095

Solving for t:

\displaystyle 4t =\frac{\log 2.38095}{\log(1+ .0255/4)}

\displaystyle t =\frac{\log 2.38095}{4\log(1+ .0255/4)}

Calculating:

\displaystyle t =\frac{0.37675}{0.01104}

\boxed{t \approx 34.13}

It will take approximately 34.13 years

Answer:

C or 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Once again, first you ant to simplify the equation before putting in the numbers.  So the simplified equation is mh + mp -p/h +m. Then you put the numbers in. mh is actually 3(-1), which is -3. mp is really 3*4, which is 12. p/h is 4/-1, which is -4, and then you add m. So when you put the numbers is it ends up as -3 + 12 - 4 +3, which simplified is 8, or C

What is 8/15÷2/5?What so u think is the best answer for this problem??
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

1 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve. Change the division sign into a multiplication, and flip the second fraction:

(8/15)/(2/5) = (8/15) x (5/2)

Multiply across:

(8 x 5)/(15 x 2) = (40)/(30)

Simplify. Divide common factors:

(40/30)/(10/10) = 4/3

4/3 or 1 1/3 is your answer.
