Question 239007: Venture Capital:
Henry invested $12000 in a new resturant. When the resturant was sold two years later, he received $27000. Find the average annual return by solving the equation 12,000(1+r)^2=27000.
used the foil to solve the (1+r)^2 or (1+r)(1+r)
12000(1+2r+r^2)=27000
12000+24,000r+12000r^2=27000
-15000+24,000r+1200r^2=0
THis is as far as I could get. Not sure my next step. Answer by scott8148(6628) (Show Source):
