9514 1404 393

Answer:

  8.6

Step-by-step explanation:

The growth factor per year is 1.012, so in 500 years is ...

  1.012^500

The number of doublings is the solution to ...

  2^n = 1.012^500

Taking logarithms, we have ...

  n·log(2) = 500·log(1.012)

  n = 500·log(1.012)/log(2) ≈ 8.6046

About 8.6 doublings will take place in 500 years.

In 5 years' time, Kate's father will be 3 times as old as Kate. Four years ago, her father
Brut [27]

Answer: Kate = 40/3  Her father = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Kate's age in the present be K

And Kate's father's age in the present be F

3(K+5) = F+5

6(K-6) = F-6

Rearrange the first equation to get

3K+15 = F+5

3K+10 = F

Substitute that into the second question

6K-36 = 3K+10-6

3K = 40

K = 40/3

So F = 3*40/3+10 = 50

Misha Larkins [42]

<u>Answer:</u>

The answer is D : 4.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

<em>=2x-3>11-5x</em>

<em>=2x-3+5x>11</em>
