2/8 QUESTION 8.1 POINT
If $20,000 is invested at 8.3% compounded continuously, how long, to the nearest tenth of a year will it take before the
investment doubles?

9514 1404 393

  8.4 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of P compounded continuously at rate r for t years is ...

  A = Pe^(rt)

Solving for t, we find ...

  t = ln(A/P)/r = ln(2)/0.083 ≈ 8.35117

It will take about 8.4 years for the investment to double.

15

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the following expression and we are to solve it and find the product:

-13 × (-5)

solving the given expression in the standard order of solving a mathematical expression, beginning with the opening of brackets and then multiplying the terms and changing their signs.

-3 × -5 = 15 (answer is positive because when negative is multiplied with negative, it gives a positive answer)

  y= -3x is the required function.

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given a table:

x             y

0             0

1             -3

3             -9

-2             6

we can see that the values of y is -3 times the value of x

hence, the function would be: y= -3x.

put the values of x will give the same y as in the table that means function is satisfying the given table.
