Answer:

3.67 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount is found using the compound interest formula.

A = P(1 +r/n)^(nt)

for principal P invested at annual rate r compounded n times per year for t years.

We can solve this for t:

A/P = (1 +r/n)^(nt) . . . . divide by P

log(A/P) = (nt)log(1 +r/n) . . . . take the logarithm

t = log(A/P)/(n·log(1 +r/n)) . . . . divide by the coefficient of t

Filling in the given values, we find ...

t = log(12000/10000)/(4·log(1 +0.05/4)) ≈ 3.6692

It will take about 3.67 years for the balance to reach $12,000.

describe the error Kevin made. circle the places in the drawing of Kevin's solution where he made an error

Tresset [83]

The error that Kevin made was he did not include two units (see the circled areas) while counting the units. He counted the units there as one instead of two at those junctions. The correct measure of the perimeter of the figure is 20 units.

The letters r and Θ represent polar coordinates. perform the following.

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

$\boxed{(x - \frac{1 }{ 2})^{2} + y^{2} = \frac{21 }{ 4}}\\$

Step-by-step explanation:

$r = \frac{5}{r - cos\theta}\\r^{2} - rcos\theta = 5\\\\$

$\text{Use the relationships}\\r^{2} = x^{2} + y^{2}; cos\theta = \frac{ x}{r }\\$

$\begin{array}{ll}x^{2} + y^{2} - r(\frac{x }{r }) = 5 & \text{Made the substitutions } \\x^{2} + y^{2} - x = 5 & \text{Simplified } \\x^{2} -x + y^{2} = 5 & \text{Rearranged } \\x^{2} -x + \frac{1 }{ 4} + y^{2}= 5 + \frac{1 }{ 4} & \text{Completed the square } \\(x - \frac{1 }{ 2})^{2} + y^{2}= \frac{21 }{ 4} & \text{Wrote as sum of squares} \\\end{array}\\\\$

$\text{This is the equation of a circle with centre at (0.5, 0 ) and radius equal to}\\\frac{\sqrt{21} }{ 2} \approx 2.291\\$

$\boxed{(x - \frac{1 }{ 2})^{2} + y^{2}= \frac{21 }{ 4}}\\$
