Two babies are born and their parents are planning to save for their education. The Smith Family
invests $3000 into an investment account that pays 8%/a compounded annually and the Wu family
invests $2500 into an account that pays 9%/a compounded semi – annually. Equations modelling the
amount of each family's investment, A , where t is the amount of years is shown below.

The other end of the Bungee is tied via padded ankle straps to a jumper's ankle. The jumper jumps and the Bungee cord extends like a rubber band and the jumper bounces up and down until coming to a halt. The Bungee cord elongation 150% of its length, meaning that the Bungee cord extended length Will be its original length plus 1.5 times of its original length. Knowing that that the jumper's height is not more 7 feet, what should the original length of the Bungee cord be to assure that the jumper under any condition stays at least 10 feet above water?
