Answer:

Explanation:

a.)


4880.76=4000(1+.04/4)^(4x)\\\\1.22019=1.01^(4x)\\(ln(1.22019))/(ln(1.01))=4x\\x= 4.999999= 5

b.)


5395.4=4000(1+x/12)^(12*5)\\1.34885=(1+x/12)^(60)\\\sqrt[60]{1.34885} =1+x/12\\x= 0.0599999772677= .06

c.)


\i)\\100*(1+.1255)= 112.55\\\\2)\\100*(1+.1218/2)^2= 112.550881= 112.55
