Find the doubling time of an investment earning 8% interest if interest is compounded continuously. The doubling time of an investment earning 8% interest if interest is compounded continuously is ____ years.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

8.66 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Interest rate = 8%

Using the exponential growth function:

A = Ao * e^(rt)

Where A = final amount

Ao = Initial amount

r = growth rate

t = time

Here we are to calculate the time it takes an investment earning 8% interest to double;

rate (r) = 8% = 0.08

2A = A * e^(rt)

Divide both sides by A

2 = e^(rt)

2 = e^(0.08 * t)

2 = e^(0.08t)

In(2) = 0.08t

0.6931471 = 0.08t

Divide both sides by 0.08

0.6931471 / 0.08 = 0.08t / 0.08

8.6643397 = t

t = 8.66 years

Answer 2

Answer:

symbolically, the answer would be t= ln(2)/(.08)

Step-by-step explanation:

start by writing out your variables:

rate= .08

*dont forget the investment doubles too, thats where 2P is in the bottom equation

equation should look like:

[tex]2P=Pe^{.08t}[/tex]

then you solve, so divide P on the right and left:

[tex]\frac{2p}{p} = \frac{Pe^{.08t}}{p}[/tex]

now it looks like: [tex]2=e^{.08t}[/tex]

you can take the natural log (ln) of 2 to get the exponent by itself .08t

ln(2)=.08t

then divide .08 to get t by itself

[tex]\frac{ln(2)}{.08} =\frac{.08t}{.08}[/tex]

so symbolically, your equation should be:

[tex]t=\frac{ln(2)}{.08}[/tex]

to get t as your answer you can plug this equation into your calculator to get:

t=8.66 years so approximently 8 years

Determine whether the statement is true or false. If it is​ false, rewrite it as a true statement. A sampling distribution is normal only if the population is normal. Choose the correct answer below. A. The statement is false. A sampling distribution is normal only if n30. B. The statement is false. A sampling distribution is normal if either n30 or the population is normal. C. The statement is true. D. The statement is false. A sampling distribution is never normal.

Answers

Answer: Choice B

The statement is false. A sampling distribution is normal if either n > 30 or the population is normal.

==========================================

Explanation:

If the underlying population is normally distributed, then so is the sample distribution (such as the distribution of sample means, aka xbar distribution).

Even if the population isn't normally distributed, the xbar distribution is approximately normal if n > 30 due to the central limit theorem. Some textbooks may use a higher value than 30, but after some threshold is met is when the xbar distribution is effectively "normal".

Choice A is close, but is missing the part about the population being normal. If we know the population is normal, then n > 30 doesn't have to be required.

(a) Use appropriate algebra and Theorem to find the given inverse Laplace transform. (Write your answer as a function of t.)
L−1 {3s − 10/ s2 + 25}
(b) Use the Laplace transform to solve the given initial-value problem.
y' + 3y = e6t, y(0) = 2

Answers

(a) Expand the given expression as

[tex]\dfrac{3s-10}{s^2+25}=3\cdot\dfrac s{s^2+25}-2\cdot\dfrac5{s^2+25}[/tex]

You should recognize the Laplace transform of sine and cosine:

[tex]L[\cos(at)]=\dfrac s{s^2+a^2}[/tex]

[tex]L[\sin(at)]=\dfrac a{s^2+a^2}[/tex]

So we have

[tex]L^{-1}\left[\dfrac{3s-10}{s^2+25}\right]=3\cos(5t)-2\sin(5t)[/tex]

(b) Take the Laplace transform of both sides:

[tex]y'(t)+3y(t)=e^{6t}\implies (sY(s)-y(0))+3Y(s)=\dfrac1{s-6}[/tex]

Solve for [tex]Y(s)[/tex]:

[tex](s+3)Y(s)-2=\dfrac1{s-6}\implies Y(s)=\dfrac{2s-11}{(s-6)(s+3)}[/tex]

Decompose the right side into partial fractions:

[tex]\dfrac{2s-11}{(s-6)(s+3)}=\dfrac{\theta_1}{s-6}+\dfrac{\theta_2}{s+3}[/tex]

[tex]2s-11=\theta_1(s+3)+\theta_2(s-6)[/tex]

[tex]2s-11=(\theta_1+\theta_2)s+(3\theta_1-6\theta_2)[/tex]

[tex]\begin{cases}\theta_1+\theta_2=2\\3\theta_1-6\theta_2=-11\end{cases}\implies\theta_1=\dfrac19,\theta_2=\dfrac{17}9[/tex]

So we have

[tex]Y(s)=\dfrac19\cdot\dfrac1{s-6}+\dfrac{17}9\cdot\dfrac1{s+3}[/tex]

and taking the inverse transforms of both sides gives

[tex]y(t)=\dfrac19e^{6t}+\dfrac{17}9e^{-3t}[/tex]

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Answer:

256

Step-by-step explanation:

log     256 can most easily be found by rewriting 256 as a power of 2:

      2

2^5 * 2^3 = 32*8 = 256, so 2^ (5 + 3) = 2^8.    

Then we have:

  log     256

2        2             = 256

Alternatively, write:

log (down)2 256 = log (down)2 2^8 = 2*8 = 256

Note that your "log (down)^2 and the function y = 2^x are inverse functions that effectively cancel one another.

In a survey of 15000 students of different schools, 40% of them were found to have tuition before the see examination. Among them 50% studied only mathematics ,30% only science and 10% studied others subject. how many student studied mathematics as well as science. ​

Answers

Answer: 600 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, we start with 15,000 students.

40% of them had tuition, so the actual number of them that had tuition is:

15,000*0.40 = 6,000.

Now we want to find the number of students that studied math and science.

50% only studied math,

30% only studied science

10% studied other subjects.

So 50% + 30% + 10% did NOT studied both math and science

90% is the percentage that did not study math and mathematics as well as science, then the other 10% did.

Then, out of the 6,000 students that had tuition, 10% studied math and science, the total number is:

6,000*0.10 = 600

Firstly let us convert this to the fraction form.

When twenty five is divided by thousand we get 0.025

25/1000=0.025

So the fraction is 25/1000.

Now we need to find the reciprocal of fraction 25/1000.

Reciprocal means the numerator changes to denominator and denominator changes to numerator.

So 25/1000 reciprocal is 1000/25

Angle formed between the tangents from a point outside the circle measure the half of the difference of intercepted arcs.

(a). Here the intercepted arcs are,

    Measure of major arc = 360° - 100°

                                        = 260°

    Measure of minor arc = 100°

   x° = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[m(\text{Major arc})-m(\text{Minor arc})][/tex]

       = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(260-100)[/tex]

    x = 80°

(b). If a secant and tangent are drawn form a point outside the circle, then square of the measure of tangent is equal to the product of the measures of the secant segment and and its external segment.

Diabetic patients have normally distributed cholesterol with mean 200 and standard deviation=10.


Find the percentage of patients whose cholesterol is between 198 mg/dL and


207 mg/dL ?

Answers

Answer:

The percentage of patients whose cholesterol is between 198 mg/dL and 207 mg/dL is 33.73%

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate this proportion, we follow the probability route, using the z-score statistics

Mathematically;

z-score = (x-mean)/SD

from the question, mean = 200 and SD = 10

So for 198

z-score = (198-200)/10 = -2/10 = -0.2

For 207

z-score = (207-200)/10 = 7/10 = 0.7

So the probability we want to calculate is;

P(-0.2<z<0.7)

Mathematically this can be calculated as;

P(z<0.7) - P(z<-0.2)

We can calculate the required probability using the standard normal distribution table

P(-0.2<x<0.7) = 0.3373 from the standard distribution table

So it is this 0.3373 that we now convert to percentage and that is 33.73%

Answers

Answer:

H₀: μ = 93.29 vs. Hₐ: μ ≠ 93.29.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we need to test whether the claim made by BC financial aid is true or not.

Claim: The average textbook at BC bookstore costs $93.29.

A null hypothesis is a sort of hypothesis used in statistics that intends that no statistical significance exists in a set of given observations.  

It is a hypothesis of no difference.

It is typically the hypothesis a scientist or experimenter will attempt to refute or discard. It is denoted by H₀.

Whereas, the alternate hypothesis is the contradicting statement to the null hypothesis.

The alternate hypothesis describes direction of the hypothesis test, i.e. if the test is left tailed, right tailed or two tailed.

It is also known as the research hypothesis and is denoted by Hₐ.

The hypothesis to test this claim can be defined as follows:

H₀: The average textbook at BC bookstore costs $93.29, i.e. μ = 93.29.

Hₐ: The average textbook at BC bookstore costs different than $93.29, i.e. μ ≠ 93.29.
