The value of the expression would be 16.25 or 16 and 1/4, because when you multiply something by 1/2, you’re basically dividing it by 2, and when you put parentheses next to a number (for example 2(4) ), it means that you’re multiplying it, and when more than one values are in the parentheses, they all get multiplied, basically distributive property.
Taking into consideration that the interest is compound (yearly)
the amount of money gather through the years can be calculated by
A = P (1+r)^(t)
6000 = 5000 (1.03)^t
t = ln(6000/5000)/ln(1.03) = 6.16 ≈ 7
c. 7 years
These answers are all the same equation :/ they are all right, they all go right through the point :/
3/2 = 6
6/4= 6/40= 6 .999= ~ 7
