Check and Help please

OpenStudy (anonymous):

With what?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so would these be right and i need help on the last one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Not doing your test

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i need you to check the answer not do it thank you @iambatman

OpenStudy (anonymous):

They seem correct but I'm not sure how to o the last one. If you want you can first tell me how you think you do it an maybe I could try to help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well thank you for you help anyways @TinkerbellGirl i just need it to be explained to me while i tell the understanding view of my aspect

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well your last problem deals with compound interest, so you have the formula as I like to put it, \[P_f=P_i(1+i)^t\] so let me ask you this, how are you with logarithms?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh well your welcome :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Or really its better if you use\[P_f=P_i*r^t ~~~~ r = (1+i)\] that seems better, now we need to solve for r yes?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok, well first thing first, can you tell me what Pf, pi, t, and i are?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

LOGARITHMS: when the base is extended so it shall create a given number

OpenStudy (anonymous):

We don't really need logarithms I guess since we have time, hence the "annual."

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Would've been fun if we had to solve for time :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

All you need to do is solve for r, do some algebra and see what you get.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well i know pi means 3.14 R means radius i've learned the rest but seemingly forgotten

OpenStudy (anonymous):

There is no pi, I mean \[p_i\] as in initial

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[p_i \] means initial population \[p_f\] means final population t = time interval (depends on rate) r = rate of growth i = percentage growth rate

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok well i just wrote that down thank you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Np and for that formula I suggested rate of growth is (1+i)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

which its actually saying 1+8%

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

which would be 1+0.08

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so wouldnt this make it 1.08

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so yes it would be 1.08%

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Mhm ok I see I've confused you a bit, not precisely. Lets just use the formula you are given I guess, so with what you're given, just solve for r. Can you do that (isolate r)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Anyways I'll get back to you later, if you still haven't gotten it, I need sleep, I've been awake for wayyyy to long haha, good night.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

which is rate of growth
