Answer:

The capital will first exceed RM 10 000 after 12 complete years.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a compound interest problem.

The compound interest formula is given by:

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

Where A is the amount of money, P is the principal(the initial sum of money), r is the interest rate(as a decimal value), n is the number of times that interest is compounded per unit t and t is the time the money is invested or borrowed for.

In this exercise, we have:

So, for our problem, we have:

We first want to find t, when A = 10,000, given that P = 5,000, n = 1 and r = 0.06.

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

10,000 = 5,000(1 + \frac{0.06}{1})^{t}

1.06^{t} = 2

Now we apply log to both sides. Important to remember the following proprierty:

\log{a^{b}} = b\log{a}

\log{1.06^{t}} = \log{2}

t\log{1.06} = \log{2}

t = \frac{\log{2}}{\log{1.06}}

t = 11.9

11.9 years is 11 years and some 330 days. The next complete year will be the 12th year.

The capital will first exceed RM 10 000 after 12 complete years.

Well yes, one triangle can be constructed, but you wouldn't recognize it.
One of its angles is 180 degrees and the other two are both zero degrees.

Anybody who looks at it would think it's just a straight line segment, 9 cm long.

6. The vertices of ALMN are L(7,4), M(7,16), and
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

(a) LM=12 units, LN=35 units, MN=37 units

(b)8 84 units

(c) 210 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

Since points L and M have same x coordinates, it means they are in the same plane. Also, since the Y coordinates of L and N are same, they also lie in the same plane

Length LM=\sqrt {(7-7)^{2}+(16-4)^{2}}=12 units

Length LN=\sqrt {(42-7)^{2}+(4-4)^{2}}=35 units

LengthMN=\sqrt {(42-7)^{2}+(4-16)^{2}}=37 units

Alternatively, since this is a right angle triangle, length MN is found using Pythagoras theorem where

MN=\sqrt {(LN)^{2}+(LM)^{2}}=\sqrt {(12)^{2}+(35)^{2}}=37 units

Therefore, the lengths LM=12 units, LN=35 units and MN=37 units

(b)

Perimeter is the distance all round the figure

P=LM+LN+MN=12 units+35 units+37 units=84 units

(c)

Area of a triangle is given by 0.5bh where b is base and h is height, in this case, b is LN=35 units and h=LM which is 12 units

Therefore, A=0.5*12*35= 210 square units
