Find the amount of money in an account after 4 years if $1800 is deposited at 5% annual interest compounded quarterly.

$2195.80

Step-by-step explanation:

For a initial principal, P compounded with period k over n years at an annual interest rate, r, the amount (A(n)) at the end of n years is determined using the function:

In the given case:

P=$1800

n=4 years

r=5%=0.05

Since it is compounded quarterly, Period, k=4

Therefore, the amount of money in the account after 4 years is:

After 4 years, there will be $2195.80 in the account.

however, log(15/7) is equivalent to log(15) - log(7)

i'm using the rule log(x/y) = log(x) - log(y)

x =-.20752

step-by-step explanation:

4^(x+2)=12

4^(x+2)=12

take the log base 4 on each side

log 4 (4^(x+2) = log 4(12)

we know log b(a^y) = y log b (a)

(x+2) log 4(4) = log 4 (12)

x+2 = log 4 (12)

we know   logb c = loga c/loga b

we want to convert to base 10   so a = 10

by default, we do not write the 10   c = 4   and b = 10

log4 10 = log 12/log 4

log4 10 = log 12/ log 4

x+2 = log 12/ log 4

subtract 2 from each side

x +2 -2 = log 12/ log 4 -2

x = 1.79248125 -2

x =-.20752
