We can draw this as:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the cable, as it is the hypotenuse of a right triangle:

\begin{gathered} c^2=7^2+8^2 \\ c^2=49+64 \\ c^2=113 \\ c=\sqrt[]{113} \\ c\approx10.63 \end{gathered}

Answer: the cable length is 10.63 m.

... ($60/1.15 +$50)/1.15 = $88.85

_____

The present value (PV) of an amount (A) received 1 year from now earning annual interest rate r is ...

... PV = A/(1 +r)

For a sequence of non-uniform payments, we can work backward through the years as we did above.
