$~~~~~~ \textit{Simple Interest Earned Amount} \\\\ A=P(1+rt)\qquad \begin{cases} A=\textit{accumulated amount}\dotfill & \$185.30\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\dotfill & \$170\\ r=rate\to r\%\to \frac{r}{100}\\ t=years\dotfill &1 \end{cases} \\\\\\ 185.30=170[1+(\frac{r}{100})(1)]\implies \cfrac{185.30}{170}=1+\cfrac{r}{100}\implies \cfrac{109}{100}=\cfrac{100+r}{100} \\\\\\ 109=100+r\implies \stackrel{\%}{9}=r$

Answer:

a= $17\sqrt{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

As we have 2 of the angles, we can find the third. The measure of the third angle is 45 degrees.

As this is the same measure as the other, that means that the side length will be the same.

Now was have two side lengths of 17 in a right triangle, so we can use the Pythagorean theorem to find a.

Recall that the pythagorean theorem states: $a^2+b^2=c^2$

In this case, a is 17, b is 17, and c is a

Knowing this, we can input our value into this formula and solve for a.

$17^2+17^2=a^2\\\\289+289=a^2\\\\a=\sqrt{578} \\\\a=17\sqrt{2}$

A top-loading washing machine has a cylindrical basket that rotates about a vertical axis. The basket of one such machine starts

damaskus [11]

Answer:

$n_{tot}=44rev$

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem we can make use of the following formula:

$\theta=(\frac{\omega_{f}+\omega_{0}}{2})t$

where θ is the total angle the basket has turned, ω is the angular velocity and t is the time.

Generally theta is written in radians and omega is written in radians per second. Now, since the revolutions are directly related to the radians and they want us to write our answer in revolutions, we can directly use the provided speeds in the formula, so we can rewrite it as:

$n=(\frac{f_{f}+f_{0}}{2})t$

where n represents the number of revolutions and f is the frequency at which the basket is turning.

The movement of the cylindrial basket can be split in two stages, when it accelerates and when it decelerates. So let's analye the first stage:

$n=(\frac{4rev/s+0}{2})(9s)=18rev$

and now let's analyze the second stage, where it decelerates, so we get:

$n=(\frac{0rev/s+4rev/s}{2})(13s)=26rev$

So now that we know how many revolutions the cylindrical basket will take as it accelerates and as it decelerates we can add them to get:

n=18rev+26rev=44rev

So the basket will turn a total of 44 revolutions during this 22s interval.

pleeeeeeeeeeeease hellllllllp meeeeeee the circle has a center of 0.its raduis is 3 cm,and the central angle A measures 100.what

Answer:

2.5 pi

Step-by-step explanation:

If you were trying to get the area of a whole circle, you would use

Area = pi r^2

You have to modify the formula to show that just part of the circle has an area that you are interested in.

The new formula is

Area = (theta/360) pi r^2

Givens

r = 30 cm

theta = 100

Solution

Area = (100 / 360) * pi * r^2 Substitute the givens into this formula

Area = (5 / 18) * pi * 3^2 Expand

Area = (5 / 18) * pi * 9 Cancel 9 into 18

Area = 5/2 * pi

Area = 2.5 * pi
