We have been given that Bobby's investment of $225,000 loses value at a rate of 3% per year. We are asked to find the value of the investment after 10 years.
We will us exponential decay function to solve our given problem.
We know that an exponential function is in form 
, where,
y = Final amount,
a = Initial amount,
r = Decay rate in decimal form,
x = Time.
Let us convert 3% into decimal.
Upon substituting 
, 
and 
, we will get:
Upon rounding to nearest dollar, we will get;
Therefore, the value of the investment after 10 years would be 
.
By factorising a function, you can find the value of x-intercepts by substituting f(x)=0
By plotting a graph, you can check the values of x-intercepts
Answer:
405
Step-by-step explanation:
To find sample size, use the following equation, where n = sample size, za/2 = the critical value, p = probability of success, q = probability of failure, and E = margin of error.
The values that are given are p = 0.84 and E = 0.03.
You can solve for the critical value which is equal to the z-score of (1 - confidence level)/2. Use the calculator function of invNorm to find the z-score. The value will given with a negative sign, but you can ignore that.
(1 - 0.9) = 0.1/2 = 0.05
invNorm(0.05, 0, 1) = 1.645
You can also solve for q which is 1 - p. For this problem q = 1 - 0.84 = 0.16
Plug the values into the equation and solve for n.
Round up to the next number, giving you 405.
