Suppose that $2000 is loaned at a rate of 17%, compounded semiannually. Assuming that no payments are made, find the amount owed after 5 years. Do not round any intermediate computations, and round your answer to the nearest cent.

answer: solve 5\cdot 2^x=2405⋅2  

x

=2405, dot, 2, start superscript, x, end superscript, equals, 240.

solution

to solve for xxx, we must first isolate the exponential part. to do this, divide both sides by 555 as shown below. we do not multiply the 555 and the 222 as this goes against the order of operations!

\begin{aligned} 5\cdot 2^x& =240 2^x& =48 \\ \end{aligned}  

5⋅2  

x

2  

x

​    

=240

=48

step-by-step explanation:

substitute,

circle 1 = 5

circle 2 = 20

circle 3 = 44

in this case no matter how you add, you will always get a perfect square..

hence proved
