Answer:

18 years (to the nearest year)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Compound interest formula</u>:

A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}

where A is amount, P is principal, r is interest rate (decimal format), n is the number of times interest is compounded per unit 't', and t is time

Given:

  • A = 4490
  • P = 2400
  • r = 3.5% = 0.035
  • n = 12

\implies 4490=2400(1+\frac{0.035}{12})^{12t}

\implies \dfrac{449}{240}=\left(\dfrac{2407}{2400}\right)^{12t}

\implies \ln\dfrac{449}{240}=\ln\left(\dfrac{2407}{2400}\right)^{12t}

\implies \ln\dfrac{449}{240}=12t\ln\left(\dfrac{2407}{2400}\right)

\implies t=\dfrac{\ln\dfrac{449}{240}}{12\ln\left(\dfrac{2407}{2400}\right)}

\implies t=17.92277136...

Therefore, it would take 18 years (to the nearest year) for the account to reach $4,490

-4(z-12)=42 how can I solve?
astraxan [27]
-4(z-12) = 42
First, we will get rid of the brackets by multiplying each term within the brackets by -4 as follows:
-4(z) - -4(12) = 42
-4z + 48 = 42
Then, we will isolate the term with the variable. To do so,we will simply subtract 48 from both sides as follows:
-4z+48-48 = 42-48
-4z = -6
Finally,we will get rid of the coefficient next to the variable by dividing both sides by -4.
The final result will thus be:
z = 3/2
