Answer:
The first transit on one side of the trench is 18 ft higher than the other side of the trench. The transit is set at 4.5 above ground, therefore the transit lens is 18' + 4.5' = 22.5' above the location on the other side of the trench. The angle of depression is the angle formed by the horizontal and the line of sight to the other side and it is given as 31°. This forms a right angle triangle with height of 22.5' and an interior angle of 31°, Then
tan( 31°) = Height / base, with the base representing the width of the trench
base = Height / tan(31°) = 22.5' / tan(31°) = 37.45' is the width of the trench
Answer: he should invest $16129 today.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let $P represent the initial amount that should be invested today. It means that principal,
P = $P
It would be compounded annually. This means that it would be compounded once in a year. So
n = 1
The rate at which the principal would be compounded is 7.6%. So
r = 7.6/100 = 0.076
The duration of the investment would be 6 years. So
t = 6
The formula for compound interest is
A = P(1+r/n)^nt
A = total amount in the account at the end of t years.
A = 25000
Therefore
25000 = P(1+0.076/1)^1×6
25000 = P(1.076)^6
25000 = 1.55P
P = 25000/1.55
P = $16129
Answer:
14.8%
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for market share = Total sales of the company at a particular period/ Total sales of the market × 100%
Total sales of the company = Breyer's sales = $650,417,792
Total sales of the market = Total sales in the ice cream category market = $4.4 billion
= $650,417,792/ $4,400,000,000, × 100
= 14.782222545%
Therefore, approximately to the nearest tenth, Breyer's market share is 14.8 %
