The length of the rectangle is 60 feet and the width of the rectangle is 45 feet.

<h3>What is the area of the rectangle?</h3>

Let L be the length and W be the width of the rectangle.

Then the area of the rectangle will be

Area of the rectangle = L×W square units

A farmer’s rectangular pen has an area of 2,700 square feet, and the width is 15 feet shorter than the length.

L = W + 15

Then we have

2700 = W(W + 15)

W² + 15W - 2700 = 0

W² + 60W - 45W - 2700 = 0

(W + 60)(W - 45) = 0

W = 45, -60

Then the dimension of the rectangle will be

W = 45 feet

L = W + 15

L = 45 + 15

L = 60 feet

More about the area of the rectangle link is given below.

oee [108]

Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

using c^2 = a^2 + b^2

whereas c is the length of the ladder

a is the top of the ladder

b is the distance from building

so c^2 = 12^2 + 5^2 = 144 + 25 = 169

c = 13

How much more would $1,000 earn in 5 years in an account compounded continuously than an account compounded quarterly if the int
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer: There is a difference of $ 1.0228.

Explanation: Given, initial amount or principal = $ 1000,

Time= 5 years and given compound rate of interest = $3.7%

Now, Since the amount in compound continuously,

A= Pe^{rt} , where, r is the rate of compound interest, P is the principal amount and t is the time.

Here, P=$ 1000, t=5 years and r= $3.7%,

Thus, amount in compound continuously ,  A=1000e^{3.7\times5/100}

⇒A=1000e^{18.5}=1000\times 1.20321844013=1203.21844013

Therefore, interest in this compound continuously rate =1203.21844013-1000=203.21844013

now, Since the amount in compound quarterly,

A=P(1+\frac{r/4}{100} )^{4t}, where, r is the rate of compound interest, P is the principal amount and t is the time.

Thus, amount in compound quarterly, A=1000(1+\frac{3.7/4}{100} )^{4\times5}

⇒A=1000(1+\frac{3.7}{400} )^{20}

⇒A=1000(1+\frac{3.7}{400} )^{20}

⇒A= 1202.19567617

Therefore, interest in this compound quarterly rate=1202.19567617-1000=202.19567617

So, the difference in these interests=203.21844013-202.19567617=1.02276396 ≈1.0228
