Using decimal multipliers, it is found that a rate of return of 5.2% in the third year will produce a cumulative gain of 16%.

The <u>decimal multiplier</u> for a increase of a% is given by:

M = \frac{100 + a}{100}

In this problem, two increases of 5%, thus:

M = \frac{100 + 5}{100} = 1.05

Another of x, that we want to find, and the result is a increase of 16%, thus:

M = \frac{100 + 16}{100} = 1.16

The three increases(5%, 5% and x%) result in a increase of 16%, thus:

1.05(1.05)(x) = 1.16

x = \frac{1.16}{(1.05)^2}

x = 1.052

1.052 - 1 = 0.052

A rate of return of 5.2% in the third year will produce a cumulative gain of 16%.

ipn [44]

The expression which is equivalent to √(-9) is 3i.

<h3>What is Complex number?</h3>

A complex number is the sum of a real number and an imaginary number. A complex number is of the form a + ib and is usually represented by z.

Here, given expression;

    y = √(-9)

    y = √9 X √(-1)

   y = 3√(-1)

   y = 3i

Thus, the expression which is equivalent to √(-9) is 3i.
