Solving AequalsPeSuperscript rt for​ P, we obtain PequalsAeSuperscript negative rt which is the present value of the amount A due in t years if money earns interest at an annual nominal rate r compounded continuously. For the function Pequals4​,000eSuperscript negative 0.08 t​, in how many years will the ​$4​,000 be due in order for its present value to be ​$2​,000? In nothing ​years, the ​$4​,000 will be due in order for its present value to be ​$2​,000.

Respuesta :

Answer:

in 8.6 year will be $4000 be due in order present value $2000

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

P = 4​,000 [tex]e^{-0.08t}[/tex]

amount = $4000

present value = $2000

solution

we consider here present value P and amount A t time at annual nominal year rate r

so

P = A[tex]e^{-0.08t}[/tex]    .................1

so put here P is $2000 and  is and A is $4000

2000 = 4000 [tex]e^{-0.08t}[/tex] take ln both side

ln [tex]\frac{2000}{4000}[/tex] = ln  [tex]e^{-0.08t}[/tex]

ln2 - ln 4 = -0.08 t

t = 8.664

so in 8.6 year will be $4000 be due in order present value $2000
