How long will it take your money to double if you put $500 into an account compounded quarterly at 2.9%?

Work Shown:

A = P*(1+r/n)^(n*t)

1000 = 500*(1+0.029/4)^(4*t)

1000 = 500*(1.00725)^(4*t)

1000/500 = (1.00725)^(4*t)

2 = (1.00725)^(4*t)

log(2) = log( 1.00725^(4*t) )

log(2) = 4*t*log( 1.00725 )

4*t*log( 1.00725 ) = log(2)

t = log(2)/( 4*log( 1.00725 ) )

t = 23.9881659971072 The value is approximate

t = 24 when rounding to the nearest full year

It takes approximately 24 years to double your money.

answer:

total cost for tiles and paints is $924.  

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given that a community hall is in the shape of a cuboid. the hall is 40m long 15m high and 3m wide.

the paint will be required for 4 walls and ceiling.

let us find area of walls and ceiling.

therefore, the area of walls and ceiling is 1410 square meters.

given: cost for 10 litre of paint is $10 and 10 litre paint covers 25 square meter. therefore,

therefore, the total painting cost is $564.

tiles will be required for floor. let us find the area of floor.

given: 1m squared floor tiles costs $3. so,

therefore, the total tiles cost is $360.

now let us find combined total cost of tiles and paint.

therefore, the combined total cost of tiles and paint is $924.
