Answer: it will take 14 years
Step-by-step explanation:
A savings account is started with an initial deposit of $600. This means that the principal P is
P = 600
It was compounded annually. This means that it was compounded once in a year. Therefore,
n = 1
The rate at which the principal was compounded is 2.1%. So
r = 2.1/100 = 0.021
The duration of time that for which the money stayed in the account is t years. So
Time = t
The formula for compound interest is expressed as
A = P(1+r/n)^nt
Where
A = total amount in the account at the end of t years. Therefore,
a) the equation to represent the amount of money in the account as a function of time in years would be
A = 600 (1+0.021/1)^1×t
A = 600 (1.021)^t
b) the amount of time it takes for the account balance to reach $800 would be
800 = 600 (1.021)^t
Dividing both sides of the equation by 600, it becomes
1.33 = (1.021)^t
t = 14
Answer:
C. 17, 12, 7
Step-by-step explanation:
In a triangle, the sum of the lengths of any two sides must be greater then the length of the third side. If you can show any two segments, the sum of whose lengths is less than the length of the third segment, that cannot form a triangle.
In choices A, B, and D, there is at least one sum of the lengths of two segments that is less then the length of the third segment. That shows that choices A, B, and D cannot form triangles.
A. 8 + 7 = 15 < 16 No
B. 9 + 7 = 16 = 16 No
D. 11 + 5 = 16 < 17 No
C.
17 + 12 = 29 > 7
12 + 7 = 19 > 17
17 + 7 = 24 > 12
Yes
5x + 2 must be equal to 17. Subtract to from both sides, then divide both sides by 5 and x = 3. 3y - 6 must equal 21. Add 6 to both sides, then divide both sides by 3, and y = 9.
Answer:
Actually, you have the correct answer. I think you are confused as to what the exact answer might be.
