- Repeat the previous exercise to find the formula forthe APY of an account that compounds daily. Usethe results from this and the previous exercise todevelop a function I(n)for the APY of any accountthat compounds n times per year.arrow_forwardA driver of a car stopped at a gas station to fill up his gas tank. He looked at his watch, and the time read exactly 3:40 p.m. At this time, he started pumping gas into the tank. At exactly 3:44, the tank was full and he noticed that he had pumped 10.7 gallons. What is the average rate of flow of the gasoline into the gas tank?arrow_forwardFind the intensity of light at a depth of 12 meter if I0=14 and k=0.7. Round to two decimals.arrow_forward
- The population P (in millions) of Texas from 2001 through 2014 can be approximated by the model P=20.913e0.0184t, where t represents the year, with t=1 corresponding to 2001. According to this model, when will the population reach 32 million?arrow_forwardFind the intensities of earthquakes whose magnitudes are (a) R=6.0 and (b) R=7.9.arrow_forwardUsing Figure 7, solve f(x)=1 .arrow_forward
- What is the composition of two functions, fg ?arrow_forwardFind the intensities of earthquakes whose magnitudes are aR=6.0andbR=7.9.arrow_forwardFor the following exercises, use this scenario: A doctor prescribes 125 milligrams of a therapeutic drug that decays by about 30% each hour. Using the model found in the previous exercise, find f (10) and interpret the result. Round to the nearest hundredth.arrow_forward
- (c) Find a such that the equation P=100(1.23)′ can be written as P = 100eat. Give your answer correct to two decimal places.arrow_forwardFind x correct to three decimal places where: alog1o (x) = b where a = 6.1 and b = 10.8arrow_forwardSuppose that c(t)= 5? ?2+1(in mg/mL) represents the concentration of a drug in a patient’sbloodstream t hours after the drug was administered. Construct a table of values for c(t) for t = 1,3,7, and 10. Round off answers to three decimal places. Use the table to sketch a graph and interpret the results.arrow_forward
