Answer:
11.4 years
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume you want to know the time it takes for Lucy's investment of $1200 to have a value of $6400. The compound interest formula is good for finding that.
FV = P(1 +r/n)^(nt)
for principal P invested at rate r per year for t years, compounded n times per year. We want to find t such that ...
6400 = 1200(1 +0.15/4)^(4t)
16/3 = 1.0375^(4t) . . . . divide by 1200
log(16/3) = 4t·log(1.0375) . . . . take logarithms
t = log(16/3)/(4·log(1.0375)) ≈ 11.4
It will take about 11.4 years for Lucy's investment value to be $6400.
Answer:
-26 + 4/5d
Step-by-step explanation:
-2/5 ( 15 - 2d + 50)
= -2/5 ( 65 - 2d)
= -2/5 * 65 - (-2/5) * 2d
= -26 - (-4/5d)
= -26 + 4/5d
The answer is that the sister is 0.95 meters tall.
