You decide to put $175 in a savings account to save for a $3,000 down payment on a new car. If the account has an interest rate of 3% per year and is compounded monthly, how long does it take you to earn $3,000 without depositing any additional funds?. 8.0111 years.
96.1332 years.
93.2914 years.
94.8377 years

Answer 1
Answer:

The correct answer is:

94.8377 years

Explanation:

The formula for compound interest is

A=p(1+(r)/(n))^(nt), where A is the total amount, p is the amount of principal deposited, r is the interest rate as a decimal number, n is the number of times per year the interest is compounded, and t is the number of years.

For our problem, A = 3000; p = 175; r = 3% = 3/100 = 0.03; n = 12; and t is unknown:

Divide both sides by 175:

We will use logarithms to solve this. The base of the exponent is 1.0025, so this will be the base of the log:

\log_(1.0025)((120)/(7))=12t

Divide both sides by 12:

Answer 2
Answer: 3 % = 0.003 : 12 = 0.0025
175 · ( 1 + 0.0025 )^(12 x) = 3,000
175 · (1.0025)^(12 x) = 3,000
1.0025^(12 x ) = 17.142857
12 x = log _(1.0025) 17.142857
12 x = 1138.0524
x = 1138.0524 : 12
x = 94.8377
Answer: D ) 94.8377 years

Solve for x and show work

Answers

Answer:

x = -2 if its 4(3x + 5) = -4

OR

x = 4/3 if its 4(3x - 5) = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Your missing an plus or minus sign.

4(3x + 5) = -4          / multiply contents of parentheses by 4

12x + 20 = -4          / subtract 20 from both sides

12x = -24                / divide both sides by 12

x = -2

OR

4(3x - 5) = -4          / multiply contents of parentheses by 4

12x - 20 = -4          / add 20 to both sides

12x = 16                / divide both sides by 12

x = 16/12              / simplify

x = 4/3

Answer: -2

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the equation 4(3x + 5) = -4, we need to follow these steps:

Step 1: Distribute the 4 to the terms inside the parentheses.

This gives us 12x + 20 = -4.

Step 2: Subtract 20 from both sides of the equation to isolate the variable term.

We get 12x = -4 - 20, which simplifies to 12x = -24.

Step 3: Divide both sides of the equation by 12 to solve for x.

Dividing both sides by 12 gives us x = -24/12, which simplifies to x = -2.

So, the solution to the equation 4(3x + 5) = -4 is x = -2.

What is 3727/100 in simplest form?

Answers

3727/100 is already in simplest form. If you divide the numerator (3727) by the denominator (100) you can receive the decimal form of the fraction, so 3720 divided by 100 equals 37.27, OR... 37 with a remainder of 27. 

If you want the fraction in mixed number form, take the 37 with a remainder of 27. 37 will be the whole number and 27 will be the numerator, while the denominator stays 100. So, the mixed form will be 37 27/100.

Answers

Answer:

7.1 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the diameter of a circle is twice the radius, the radius of each circle is 3/2=1.5. The area of a circle is \pi r^2=\pi \cdot 1.5^2=2.25\pi \approx 7.1. Hope this helps!
