    The number of bacteria of a certain type can increase from 80 to 164 in 3 hours.  Find the value of k in the general formula for growth and decay, 

    • A.
    • B.
    • C.
    • D.
    • E.

      Not here

    Correct Answer
    A.
    Explanation
    The general formula for growth and decay is given by the equation: N(t) = N0 * e^(kt), where N(t) is the number of bacteria at time t, N0 is the initial number of bacteria, e is the base of the natural logarithm, and k is the growth or decay constant. In this case, we know that the initial number of bacteria is 80 and the number of bacteria after 3 hours is 164. Plugging these values into the formula, we can solve for k.

    Jason invests $1000 in an account that pays 2.5% interest compounded continuously.  To the nearest cent, how much will be in the account at the end of 2 years?  Use 

    • A.

      $1051.27

    • B.

      $2050.63

    • C.

      $1648.72

    • D.

      Not here

    Correct Answer
    A. $1051.27
    Explanation
    Jason invests $1000 in an account that pays 2.5% interest compounded continuously. Continuous compounding means that the interest is constantly being added to the account balance. To calculate the amount in the account at the end of 2 years, we can use the formula A = P * e^(rt), where A is the final amount, P is the principal (initial investment), e is the base of the natural logarithm, r is the interest rate, and t is the time in years. Plugging in the values, we get A = 1000 * e^(0.025 * 2) ≈ $1051.27.

    The Allen Electric Company has a piece of machinery valued at $60,000.  It depreciates at 20% per year.  After how many years will the value have depreciated to $15,000?  Use .

    • A.
    • B.
    • C.
    • D.

      Not here

    Correct Answer
    A.
    Explanation
    The value of the machinery depreciates at a rate of 20% per year. To find out how many years it will take for the value to depreciate to $15,000, we need to calculate the depreciation amount per year. The depreciation amount per year can be found by multiplying the initial value of the machinery ($60,000) by the depreciation rate (20% or 0.2). The depreciation amount per year is $12,000. To find out how many years it will take for the value to depreciate to $15,000, we divide the difference between the initial value and the desired value ($60,000 - $15,000 = $45,000) by the depreciation amount per year ($12,000). Therefore, it will take approximately 3.75 years for the value to depreciate to $15,000.

    Jason invests $1200 in an account that pays 3.5% interest compounded continuously.  To the nearest cent, how much will be in the account at the end of 2 years?  Use 

    • A.

      $1287.01

    • B.

      $2416.50

    • C.

      $2485.49

    • D.

      Not here

    Correct Answer
    A. $1287.01
    Explanation
    The formula for calculating the amount in an account with continuous compounding is A = P * e^(rt), where A is the final amount, P is the principal amount, e is Euler's number (approximately 2.71828), r is the interest rate, and t is the time in years. Plugging in the values, we get A = 1200 * e^(0.035 * 2) = 1200 * e^(0.07) ≈ $1287.01. Therefore, the correct answer is $1287.01.

    The Allen Electric Company has a piece of machinery valued at $45,000.  It depreciates at 20% per year.  After how many years will the value have depreciated to $15,000?  Use .

    • A.
    • B.
    • C.
    • D.

      Not here

    Correct Answer
    B.
    Explanation
    The value of the machinery decreases by 20% each year. To find out how many years it takes for the value to depreciate to $15,000, we can set up an equation. Let x represent the number of years. The equation would be: $45,000 * (1 - 0.20)^x = $15,000. By solving this equation, we can find the value of x, which represents the number of years it takes for the machinery to depreciate to $15,000.
