Because the SI units are based on the power of 10 but the imperial units are not
Let A( t , f( t ) ) be the point(s) at which the graph of the function has a horizontal tangent => f ' ( t ) = 0.
But, f ' ( x ) = [ ( x^2 ) ' * ( x - 1 ) - ( x^2 ) * ( x - 1 )' ] / ( x - 1 )^2 =>
f ' ( x ) = [ 2x( x - 1 ) - ( x^2 ) * 1 ] / ( x - 1 )^2 => f ' ( x ) = ( x^2 - 2x ) / ( x - 1 )^2;
f ' ( t ) = 0 <=> t^2 - 2t = 0 <=> t * ( t - 2 ) = 0 <=> t = 0 or t = 2 => f ( 0 ) = 0; f ( 2 ) = 4 => A 1 ( 0 , 0 ) and A 2 ( 2 , 4 ).

(About) 20043.46 after 14 years
Step-by-step explanation:
~ Let us apply a compound interest formula not through substituting values, but through a similar way of following this formula ~
1. First let us assign the values:
interest ⇒ 6.5 percent ( % ), principle number - start value ⇒ $ 8300, time ⇒ 14 years
2. Now let us convert interest ⇒ decimal form: 0.065
3. Add 1 to this value 0.065 ⇒ 1 + 0.065 = 1.065
4. Now let us take 1.065 exponentially to the power of itself 14 times, or in other words to the power of time ( 14 years ): 1.065^ 14 = 2.414874185.......
5. Multiply this infinite number by the principle number P, or most commonly known as the start value: 2.414874185....... * 8300 ⇒

Larger triangle’s base length
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a^2 + 3^2 = 8^2
a^2 = 8^2 - (3^2)
sqrt(a^2) = sqrt(55)
a = sqrt(55)
__________________
Smaller triangle’s base length:
The same formula applies.
a^2 + 3^2 = 5^2
a^2 = 5^2 - (3^2)
sqrt(a^2) = sqrt(16)
a = 4
____________
The finale!
Add the two side lengths of a, which is sqrt(55) + 4 (exact answer)
or... 11.416 (unrounded to thousandths place)
Good luck to you!
