A person invests 8000 dollars in a bank. The bank pays 5.25% interest compounded annually. To the nearest tenth of a year, how long must the person leave the money in the bank until it reaches 12700 dollars?

she should save it for minimum 9.1 years.

Explanation:

solve:

change sides

take ln on both sides

simplify

final answer

rounding to nearest tenth

SI=(P*R*T)/100

P=2000

R=1.5

T=6

SI=(2000*1.5*6)/100

=(2000*9)/100

=180

Neil will earn interest of 180

Cost of 7 gallons=$24.50

Cost of 1 gallon=24.50/7=3.5

Cost of 15 gallons=15*3.5=52.5

Cost of 15 gallons will be $52.5

The solution is in the following image

F=ma

where F=force

m=mass

a=acceleration

Here,

F=4300

a=3.3m/s2

m=F/a

    =4300/3.3

    =1303.03kg

Salesperson will make 6% of 1800

=(6/100)*1800

=108

Salesperson will make $108 in $1800 sales
