Jill and Cheryl took 12 years and 18 years, respectively, to double their money.
Algebra is the study of mathematical symbols and the rule involves manipulating these mathematical symbols.
Jill invested $500 in an account with a compound interest rate of 6%.
Cheryl invests $600 in an account with a compound interest rate of 4%.
The number of years each doubles their money. Using the relation of 72.
[tex]\rm t = \dfrac{72}{r}[/tex]
where r is the interest rate and t be the time
The time for the Jill will be
[tex]\rm t = \dfrac{72}{6}\\\\t = 12\\[/tex]
The time for the Cheryl will be
[tex]\rm t = \dfrac{72}{4}\\\\t = 18\\[/tex]
