please help i will fan and give a medal

Answer 1

d

Answer 2

can u help me with a question since I have helped you?

Answer 3

do you the formula ??

Answer 4

y=a(1+r)^t

Answer 5

a= ??
r= ??
t = ??
there is a key word "annually" what does that mean ??

Answer 6

nvm formula is already up there
hmm
so a= ?
r= ?
t = ?

Answer 7

please post your question at LHS where it says ":ask a queston...."

Answer 9

post does not work

Answer 10

a= 5.1
r= 2012
t= 48
i think that is how it goes

Answer 11

r = 5.1% rate u need it in decimal so divide by 100
t = time
a = initial amount (cost)
"average hotel room cost $ 48.00 in 1980" but
you need average in 2012 right
so subtract 1980 -2012 = ?

Answer 12

so a= ??
and t =??
r = ??

Answer 13

do u know my question

Answer 14

for the subtracting it would be 32

Answer 15

okay
what would you substitute for a
and for r ?
t = year which is 32

Answer 16

5.1 and 48

Answer 17

5.1% change that into decimal

Answer 18

0.051

Answer 19

yep right
a =48
t=32
r= .051
now replace variables by their values
\[\huge\rm y =a(1+r)^{t}\]
