Answer: 9 inches.
Do the pythagorean theorem to find your answer.
Formula: a^2 + b^2 = c2
12 = b
15 = c
a^2 + 12^2 = 15^2
Simplify the equation
a^2 + 144 = 225
Subtract 144 on both sides.
a^2 = 81
Square root of 81 is 9.
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1. let's call the amount of money A, the initial amount P, the yearly rate r, the number of compounds per year n.
step 2. A = P(1 + r/n)^(nt)
step 3. A = 1600(1 + .03/12)^((12)(5)
step 4. A = 1600(1.0025)^(60)
step 5. A = $1858.59
633,248.
The difference of each 3 is that they have different place values.
The 3 on the right side is int he 1000s (thousands) place, and the 3 on the left is in the 10,000s (ten thousands) place. :)
The one in the 10,000s place is 10 times larger than the one in the 1,000s place!
