Answer:

The width is 20 ft and the length is 80 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = l * w

l = w +60

SA = 1600 ft^2 ( which is the regular area)  The surface area of the water is just what is on top  which is length times width

1600 = l*w

Substitute in l = w+60

  1600       = (w+60) *w

Distribute the w

1600 = w^2 +60w

Subtract 1600 from each side

1600-1600 = w^2 + 60w -1600

0 =  w^2 + 60w -1600

Factor

0=(w-20) (w+80)

Using the zero product property

w-20=0   w+80 =0

w=20  or w=-80

The width cannot be negative   so

w=20

Now we need to find the length

l = w+60

l = 60+20

l =80

Samantha is taking out a loan for $17,452 at 6% simple interest for one year. How much interest will she pay?
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

<em>She will pay $1,047.12 interest for one year</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Simple Interest</u>

Occurs when interest is calculated on the original principal only.

Unlike compound interest where the interest earned in the compounding periods is added to the new principal, simple interest only considers the principal to calculate the interest.

The interest earned is calculated as follows:

I=P.r.t

Where:

I = Interest

P = initial principal balance or loan

r = interest rate

t = time

Samantha takes out a loan for $17,452 at r=6%=0.06 simple interest for t=1 year. Calculating the interest:

I=\$17,452*0.06 *1

I = $1,047.12

She will pay $1,047.12 interest for one year
