The answer i came up with is 0.68 i don't know if thats what you need or not. hopefully i helped.
It will take 2 years.
Year 1 :
4% 2.5k = 2.5k/100 × 4 = $100 in interest
$2.5k + $0.1k = $2.6k
Year 2 :
4% 2.6k = 2.6k/100 × 4 = $104 in interest
$100 + $104 = $204 > $200
There may be a simpler way to solve this using a formula for example, but I just solved this step by step. Please feel free to ask if you have any questions
Ok so let's start with what we know- the shortest piece is 8 inches so there's one length... then the middle piece is 6 inches longer than the shortest (6+ 8) so the middle piece would be 14 inches long. To find the last piece we can add up the other two pieces we know (14+8) which would be 22 and subtract that from how long the whole sandwich is (59-22) which would be 37 inches long. So in the end he shortest piece would be 8 inches, the middle 14 inches and the longest 37 inches.
Answer: choice A) 7017
==========================================================
Work Shown:
The first term is a_1 = 24 and we go up by 7 each time.
The common difference is d = 7
The nth term formula we'll use is
a_n = a_1 + (n-1)*d
a_n = 24 + (n-1)*7
----------
The 1000th term corresponds to n = 1000
Replace every n with 1000
Then use the order of operations (PEMDAS) to simplify
a_n = 24 + (n-1)*7
a_1000 = 24 + (1000-1)*7
a_1000 = 24 + (999)*7
a_1000 = 24 + 6993
a_1000 = 7017
