You decide to put $150 in a savings account to save for a $3,000 down payment on a new car. If the account has an interest rate

of 2.5% per year and is compounded monthly, how long does it take you to earn $3,000 without depositing any additional funds?
(I know it's 119.954 years, but I have no idea how to get that)

The formula is
A=p (1+r/k)^kt
A future value 3000
P present value 150
R interest rate 0.025
T time?
3000=150 (1+0.025/12)^12t
Solve for t
3000/150=(1+0.025/12)^12t
Take the log
Log (3000/150)=log (1+0.025/12)×12t
12t=Log (3000/150)÷log (1+0.025/12)
T=(log(3,000÷150)÷log(1+0.025÷12))÷12
T=119.95 years

Answer:

It take 119.954 years to earn $ 3000 without depositing any additional funds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Principal Amount, P = $ 150

Amount, A = $ 3000

Rate of interest, R = 2.5% compounded monthly.

To find: Time, T

We use formula of Compound interest formula,

A=P(1+\frac{R}{100})^n

Where, n is no time interest applied.

Since, It is compounded monthly.

R = 2.5/12 %

n = 12T

3000=150(1+\frac{\frac{2.5}{12}}{100})^{12T}

\frac{3000}{150}=(1+\frac{2.5}{1200})^{12T}

20=(1+\frac{2.5}{1200})^{12T}

Taking log on both sides, we get

log\,20=log\,(1+\frac{2.5}{1200})^{12T}

1.30103=12T\times\,log\,(1.002083)

T=\frac{1.30103}{12\times\,log\,(1.002083)}

T=119.954

Therefore, It take 119.954 years to earn $ 3000 without depositing any additional funds

Part A
The given line passes through (-2,2) and it is parallel to the line

4x - 3y - 7 = 0


We need to determine the slope of this line by writing it in slope -intercept form.


3y = 4x - 7


y =  \frac{4}{3} x -  \frac{7}{3}
The slope of this line is
\frac{4}{3}


The line parallel to this line also has slope

m =  \frac{4}{3}


The equation is

y =  \frac{4}{3} x + c


We substitute (-2,2)

2 =  \frac{4}{3}( - 2)  + c


c = 2 + \frac{8}{3}  =  \frac{14}{3}


The required equation is


y =  \frac{4}{3} x + \frac{14}{3}


PART B


The given line is


4x - 3y - 7 = 0




The slope of this line is
\frac{4}{3}


The slope of the line perpendicular to it is

m = -  \frac{3}{4}

The equation of the line is

y =  -  \frac{ 3}{4} x + c




We substitute the point, (-2,2)



2=  -  \frac{ 3}{4} ( - 2) + c


2=  \frac{ 3}{2}  + c



c = 2 -  \frac{3}{2}  =  \frac{1}{2}


The equation of the perpendicular line is


y=  -  \frac{ 3}{4} x +  \frac{1}{2}
