This is a continuous compounded growth:

P = A . eⁿˣ, where A is the original value, P, the yielded value after a growth of 
"x" during a time = n ( n = time = 3 hours : given)

200 = 120(e)³ˣ

200/120 = (e)³ˣ

5/3 = (e)³ˣ

ln(5/3) = ln[(e)³ˣ

0.5108 = 3x.ln(e) (ln(e) = 1)

x = 0.5108/3 = 0.17
 so the HOURLY growth rate = 0.17

Tanesha has a monthly mortgage payment of $650. Her annual property taxes are $1200, her PMI is $66/month, and her homeowners in
nika2105 [10]

The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:

$236

Explanation:

Her annual property taxes are $1200.  This means her escrow each month needs to have 1/12 of that amount; 1200/12 = $100 needs to be in the account each month.

Her mortgage insurance is $66 per month; this means a total of $100+66 = $166 needs to be in escrow every month.

Her homeowner's insurance is $840 per year; this means 1/12 of that needs to be in her escrow account each month:

840/12= 70

This gives us a total of $166+$70 = $236

PLEASE HELP On the number line, graph the solution to the inequality -5(x+1) &gt; 7x + 31? Can you tell me how to go about doing
elena-s [515]

Answer:

I don't know how to insert a number line, but you have to put on it x<-3. You have to plot it, then put a open circle at -3, and draw an arrow, pointing it farther into the negitive side of the number line.
