Beth invests $2000 at a rate of 2% per year compound interest.
Calculate the minimum number of complete years it takes for the value
of Beth's investment to increase from $2000 to more than $2500.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll first find out how long it takes for the account to have 2500 in it, then we'll add a year (we'll check ourselves anyway, just to be sure!) This is an exponential growth problem of the form

[tex]A(t)=P(1+r)^t[/tex] since the compounding is only done once a year. Filling in:

[tex]2500=2000(1.02)^t[/tex] Begin by dividing both sides by 2000 to get

[tex]1.25=(1.02)^t[/tex] In order to get that t down from its current position in the equation, we will take the natural log of both sides. This allows us to pull the t down and put it out front like this:

ln(1.25) = t ln(1.02)  Now divid both sides by ln(1.02) and you will see that

t = 11 years. At 11 years (rounded), the account will have

[tex]A(t)=2000(1.02)^{11}[/tex] = 2486.75 and after 12 years:

[tex]A(t)=2000(1.02)^{12[/tex] = 2536.48

t = 12 works!

Answer 2

The minimum number of complete years it would take the investment to increase to $2500 is 12 years.

Definition of compound interest

Compound interest is when both the principal and the interest earned increases in value at the interest rate per period.

Formula for determining the number of years

Number of years =  In(FV / PV) ÷ r

FV = future value PV = present value r = interest rate

In(2500 / 2000) ÷ 0.02  

In (1.25) ÷ 0.02

= 11.2  years

= 12 years

Se tienen 25 billetes de 5 y de 20 lempiras con un monto de 350 lempiras cuantos billetes de 5 lempiras se tienen y de 20 lempiras

Answers

Answer:

El número de facturas

5 lempiras = 10 billetes

20 lempiras = 15 billetes

Step-by-step explanation:

Vamos a representar

El número de facturas de

5 lempiras = x

20 lempiras = y

Nuestro sistema de ecuaciones se da como:

x + y = 25 ..... Ecuación 1

x = 25 - y

5 × x + 20 × y = 350

5x + 20y = 350 .... Ecuación 2

Sustituiríamos x por 25 - y en la ecuación 2

5 (25 - años) + 20y = 350

125 - 5 años + 20 años = 350

125 + 15 años = 350

15 años = 350 - 125

15 años = 225

y = 225/15

y = 15

Resolviendo para x

x = 25 - y

x = 25 - 15

x = 10

Por lo tanto, el número de facturas

5 lempiras = 10 billetes

20 lempiras = 15 billetes

find the area of the figure below

A.288.62
B.266.22
C.186.66
D.236.6

Answers

Answer:

A. 288.62

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of two triangles = 15.3 * 10.4 = 159.12

Area rectangle = hypotenuse triangle * 7

hypotenuse = √108.16 + 234.09

Hypotenuse = 18.5

Area rectangle = 18.5 * 7 = 129.5

129.5 + 159.12 = 288.62

Step-by-step explanation:

The required simplified expression is given as tan²(2x). Option c is correct.

[CSC(4x) - cot(4x) ] / [CSC(4x) + cot(4x) to be simplified.

What is simplification?

The process in mathematics to operate and interpret the function to make the function simple or more understandable called simplifying and the process is called simplification.

[tex]= [csc(4x) - cot(4x)] / [csc(4x) + cot(4x)] \\= [1/sin4x - cos4x/sin4x] / [1/sin4x  + cos4x/sin4x]\\= [(1-cos4x)/sin4x] / [(1+cos4x) /sin4x] - - - - (1)[/tex]
Here,
[tex]1 - cos4x = 2sin^24x[/tex]

 [tex]sin4x = 2sin2xcos2x,\\ 1+cos4x = 2cos^22x[/tex]
now put the value in equation 1
[tex]= [(2sin^22x)/2sin2xcos2x] / [(2cos^22x) /2sin2xcos2x] \\= [(sin2x)/cos2x] / [(cos2x) /sin2x] \\=tan2x/cot2x\\=tan^22x[/tex]

Thus, the required simplified expression is given as tan²(2x). Option c is correct.

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Intercepts are basically points where if one of the coordinates is a number above 0, the other one HAS TO BE 0

Since there are three points where there are x-intercepts (since the y is 0), there will be three x-intercepts.

Since there is only one point where there are y-intercepts (since the x is 0), there will be only one y-intercept.

The intercepts don't give an exact answer so you would have to estimate where they are on the graph. For example, the y-intercept is between 20-30 and is leaning more towards 30, so you would think it's around 27-29 (And if you look at option A, you can see that it's (0,28))

You got the answer wrong because for one of the x-intercepts, you said that it was negative when it was actually positive. (I believe it was the (2.3,0) one.)

Raul is flying a kite at the end of a string that is 200 feet long. Raul is holding the string 5 feet off the ground at the angle to the horizontal of 25. How high is the kite off the ground?

Answers

Answer:

Kite is 89.52 ft off the ground

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the string is 200 ft long.

That the string is 5 ft off the ground at an angle of 25° to the horizontal.

I have drawn a triangle to depict this illustration with x being the height of the kite from the end of the string.

Also, I have depicted the ground level which is 5 ft below the end of the string.

From the triangle, we can calculate the height of the kite above the end of the string using pythagoras theorem.

x/200 = sin 25

x = 200 sin 25

x = 200 × 0.4226

x = 84.52 ft

Now, the bottom of the kite is 5 ft off the ground as depicted in the attachment.

Thus, height of kite above the ground = 84.52 + 5 = 89.52 ft
