Answer:

94 years

Step-by-step explanation:

We can approach the solution using the compound interest equation

A= P(1+r)^t

Given data

P= $40,000

A=  $120,000

r=  1.25%= 1.25/100= 0.0125

substituting and solving for t we have

120000= 40000(1+0.0125)^t \\\120000= 40000(1.0125)^t

dividing both sides by 40,000 we have

(1.0125)^t=\frac{120000}{40000} \\\\(1.0125)^t=3\\\ t Log(1.0125)= log(3)\\\ t*0.005= 0.47

dividing both sides by 0.005 we have

t= 0.47/0.005\\t= 94

Which statement best describes how to determine whether f(x) = 9 – 4x2 is an odd function? Determine whether 9 – 4(–x)2 is equiv
katovenus [111]

We have a property for odd functions, which is given below. Let f(x) be an odd function then it must satisfy the below - mentioned property.

f(-x)= -f(x)

Now, we have been given the function f(x)=9-4x^2

For this function to be odd, it must satisfy the above written property.

Replace x with -x, we get

f(-x)=9-4(-x)^2

And, we have to also find

-f(x)=-(9-4x^2)

Hence, in order to the given function to be an odd function, we must determine whether 9-4(-x)^2 is equivalent to -(9-4x^2) or not.

Therefore, C is the correct option.

Twenty-four 4-inch wide square posts are evenly spaced with 5 feet between adjacent posts to enclose a square field, as shown. W
Nata [24]

Answer:

492 0/10

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the perimeter is 4 times the length of the side, now we know that this side "l" is given by:

l = 4 in * 24 + 23 * 5 ft

l = 96 in + 115 ft

Now, we pass the inches to pes, knowing that 1 foot equals 12 inches, so

96 in * 1 ft / 12 in = 8 ft

therefore replacing it remains:

l = 8 ft + 115 ft

l = 123 ft

now the perimeter:

p = 123 * 4

p = 492

to change to a mixed number:

4920/10 = 492 0/10

timurjin [86]

Answer:

The vertex of the parabola is the maximum value, i.e.,(-1,0). The function is increasing x<-1. the function is decreasing x>-1. the domain of the function is all real numbers. the range of the function is all real numbers less than or equal to 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

f(x)=-x^2-2x-1

f(x)=-[x^2+2x+1]

f(x)=-(x+1)^2                 ....(1)

The general vertex form of the parabola is

f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k           .....(2)

Where, (h,k) is vertex and a is stretch factor.

On comparing (1) and (2), we get

a=-1

h=-1

k=0

The vertex of the parabola is (-1,0). Since a=-1<1 so it is a downward parabola.

The axis of symmetry is x=-1. So, before -1 the function is increasing and after -1 the function is decreasing.

The vertex of a downward parabola is the point of maxima. So, the rang of the function can not exceed 0.

Therefore the vertex of the parabola is the maximum value, i.e.,(-1,0). The function is increasing x<-1. the function is decreasing x>-1. the domain of the function is all real numbers. the range of the function is all real numbers less than or equal to 0.
