\sin(\alpha-\beta)=\sin\alpha\cos\beta-\cos\alpha\sin\beta

\sin\alpha=\dfrac{21}{29}\implies \cos^2\alpha=1-\sin^2\alpha=\dfrac{400}{841}

Since \alpha lies in quadrant II, we have \cos\alpha, so

\cos\alpha=-\sqrt{\dfrac{400}{841}}=-\dfrac{20}{29}

\cos\beta=\dfrac{15}{17}\implies\sin^2\beta=1-\cos^2\beta=\dfrac{64}{289}

\beta lies in quadrant I, so \sin\beta>0 and

\sin\beta=\sqrt{\dfrac{64}{289}}=\dfrac8{17}

So

\sin(\alpha-\beta)=\dfrac{21}{29}\dfrac{15}{17}-\left(-\dfrac{20}{29}\right)\dfrac8{17}=\dfrac{475}{493}

If 12,025 was invested at 3.25% compounded monthly 3 years, how much interest will be earned
wariber [46]

Answer:

$1,229.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets use the compound interest formula provided to solve this:

A=P(1+\frac{r}{n} )^{nt}

<em>P = initial balance</em>

<em>r = interest rate (decimal)</em>

<em>n = number of times compounded annually</em>

<em>t = time</em>

<em />

First, change 3.25% into a decimal:

3.25% -> \frac{3.25}{100} -> 0.0325

Since the interest is compounded monthly, we will use 12 for n. Lets plug in the values now:

A=12,025(1+\frac{0.0325}{12})^{12(3)}

A=13,254.75

Lastly, subtract A from P to get the interest earned:

13,254.75 - 12,025 = 1,229.75

A wedge of cheese is shaped like a triangular prism. The wedge of cheese is 7 inches tall. The base of the cheese is shaped like
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

193 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a triangular prism:

The volume of a triangular prism is the base area multiplied by the wedge, that is:

V = A_bw

The base area is one half times the triangle base times it's height, so:

V = 0.5*b*h*w

The wedge of cheese is 7 inches tall.

This means that w = 7

The base of the cheese is shaped like a triangle with a base of 11 and a height of 5 inches.

This means that b = 11, h = 5

Volume:

V = 0.5*b*h*w = 0.5*11*5*7 = 192.5

Rounding, approximately 193 in.
