Answer:

31.334... years

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial value = $500

r = 1.5%

t = ?

A = (500)e^{.015*t}

I was unsure if the question was asking to express the equations in terms of t =, but i did those steps anyway just in case.

A/500 = e^{.015*t}

ln A/500 = lne^{.015*t}

ln A/500 = .015*t

ln(A/500)/.015 = t

t = ln(A/500)/.015

To find the amount of time it takes for the account balance to reach $800, we plug in $800 for A in the equation that solves for t.

t= ln(800/500)/.015 = 31.334...(rounded) years

We also could have solved by plugging in $800 into the original equation and then solving for t, but i found it to be easier to find the equation for t prior to solving. Hope this helps!

Solve the system of equations - x - y = 6 and 5x -7y=66 by combining the equations
DIA [1.3K]

Answer: Let's solve for x.

−x−y=6

Step 1: Add y to both sides.

−x−y+y=6+y

−x=y+6

Step 2: Divide both sides by -1.

−x

−1

=

y+6

−1

x=−y−6

Answer:

x=−y−6

Let's solve for x.

5x−7y=66

Step 1: Add 7y to both sides.

5x−7y+7y=66+7y

5x=7y+66

Step 2: Divide both sides by 5.

5x

5

=

7y+66
