Compound interest can be defined as the interest <em>on a deposited amount, an investment</em> that is <em>compounded based on its principal and interest rate.</em>

It will take about 3.239 years for the principal amount of $13,000 to double its initial value.

From the above question, we can deduce that we are to find the time "t"

The formula to find the time "t" in compound interest is given as:

t = ln(A/P) / r

where:

P = Principal = $13,000

R = Interest rate = 21.4%

A = Accumulated or final amount

From the question, the Amount "A" is said to be the double of the principla.

Hence,

A = $13,000 x 2

= $26,000

  • Step 1: First, convert R as a percent to r as a decimal

r = R/100

r = 21.4/100

r = 0.214 per year.

  • Step 2: Solve the equation for t

t = ln(A/P) / r

t = ln(26,000.00/13,000.00) / 0.214

t = 3.239 years

Therefore, it will take about 3.239 years for the principal amount of $13,000 to double its initial value.

Find the mean absolute deviation of the set of data. 2, 3, 5, 7, 9
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

2.4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the mean absolute deviation, find how much each value is away from the mean, and divide it by the number of numbers you have. In this case, the mean is 5, and the deviation of each number is 4, 2, 0, 2, and 4. Add these up and you get 12. Divide 12 by the number of numbers which you have, which is 5, to get 2.4.

Jason and Jill or two students in mr. White's math class. On the last 5 quizzes Jason scored an 80 90 95 85 and 70. Jill scored
Mrac [35]

Jason's scores : 80 90 95 85 70 and

Jill's score : 70 75 90 100 95.

Mean of Jason's scores = \frac{80 + 90 + 95 + 85 + 70}{5}=\frac{420}{5}=84.

Mean of Jill's scores = \frac{70+75+90+100+95}{5}=\frac{430}{5}=86

Now, in order to find the mean absolute deviation, need to find the difference of each score from means.

<u>Mean absolute deviation for Jason's scores.</u>        

|84-80| = 4

|84-90| = 6

|84-95| = 9

|84-85| = 1

|84-70|= 14

\frac{4+6+9+1+14}{5}=\frac{34}{5}=6.8

<u>Mean absolute deviation for Jill's scores</u>

|86-70| = 16

|86-75| = 11

|86-90| = 4

|86-100| = 14

|86-95|= 9

\frac{16+11+4+14+9}{5}=\frac{54}{5}=10.8

Jill got average quiz score 86 and Jason got 84.

Therefore, Jill got better quiz average.

Also, the mean absolute deviation for Jason scores is less that is 6.8 than 10.8.

Therefore, Jason got more consistent grades.
