(b) You can see that the populations of the United States and the United Kingdom are growing at different rates. What constant in the equation y=aebt gives the growth rate? Discuss the relationship between the different growth rates and the magnitude of the constant.arrow_forwardRachel invests $15,000 at age 25. She hopes the investments will be worth when she turns 40. If the interest compounds continuously, approximately what rate of growth will she need to achieve her goal?arrow_forwardSuppose that $12,000 is invested in a saving account paying 5.6% interest per year. (a)Write the formula for the amount in the account after t years if interest is compounded monthly. (b)Find the amount in the after 3 years if interest is compounded daily. (c)How long will it take for the amount in the account to grow to $20,000 if interest iscompounded continuously?arrow_forward
- Hector invests $10,000 at age 21. He hopes the investments will be worth when he turns 50. If the interest compounds continuously, approximately what rate of growth Will he need to achieve his goal?arrow_forwardSuppose that the initial mass of radioactive substance is m0 and the half-life of the substance is h. Let m(t) be the mass remaining at time t. a What is meant by the half-life h? b Write a formula for m(t) in terms of the half-life h. c Write a formula for the relative decay rate r in terms of the half-life h. d Write a formula for m(t) in terms of the relative decay rate r.arrow_forward
