A house purchased five years ago for 100,000 was just sold for 135,000 assuming eponteniol growth approxmate the annual growth rate rate to the nearest percent

Respuesta :

Wow.... I find it seriously hard to believe that you have to do this bashing torture. Anyway, we call the interest rate n. so, we have 100,000*(1+0.01n)^5=135000. Usig Wolfram alpha, n comes out as 6. SO, the percent rate is 6%.

The annual growth rate to the nearest percent will be 6%

Exponential growth

  • Exponential growth is a process that increases quantity over time.
  • It occurs when the instantaneous rate of change of a quantity with respect to time is proportional to the quantity itself
  • Exponential growth is a growth whose rate becomes ever more rapid in proportion to the growing total number or size.

How to solve this problem?

The steps are as follow:

  • Based on the given conditions, formulate: [tex]100000 * (1+x)^{5}=135000[/tex]
  • Reduce the greatest common factor on both sides of the equation:[tex]20* (1+x)^{5} = 27[/tex]
  • Rearrange all nonzero terms to the left side of the equation:[tex]20(1+x)^{5}-27=0[/tex]
  • Rewrite as the product of linear and/or quadratic factors:[tex]20(1+x)^{4}*(1+x)^{2}(1+x)-27=0\\[/tex]
  • Multiply the monomials:[tex]20(1+x)^{2}(1+x)-27=0\\[/tex]
  • Simplify using exponent rule with same base:[tex]20(1+x)^{4+1}-27=0[/tex]
  • Rearrange unknown terms to the left side of the equation:[tex]20(1+x)^{4+1}=27[/tex]
  • Rewrite the expression:[tex]20(x+1)^{4+1}=27[/tex]
  • Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of variable:[tex](x+1)^{5}=\frac{27}{20}[/tex]
  • By solving above expression we will get [tex]x=\frac{\sqrt[5]{135000}-10}{10} = 6[/tex]

So the annual growth rate to the nearest percent will be 6%
