What i did is used Pythagorean theorem and did A2+B2=C2

so 336squared+45squared=Csquared

112896+2025=114921
C=114921
the square root of C=339
so diagonally from her house to the point of 45south and 336east is 339meters <span />

Candice deposited $3,587.39 into a savings account with an interest rate of 4.2% compounded twice a year. About how long will it

Ratling [72]

Time taken for the amount deposited to grow to $5000 will be found as follows:
A=P(1+r/100*n)^nt
where:
A=amount
P=principle
r=rate
n=number of terms
t=time
thus plugging in our values we have:
5000=3587.39=(1+4.2/200)^2t
solving for t we have:
1.393771=1.021^2t
2t=ln1.393771/ln1.021
2t=16.111
t=8.055685 years~8 years

Mary drove to the mountains last weekend. There was heavy traffic on the way there, and the trip took 7 hours. When Mary drove h

ELEN [110]

There are two separate equations for this question that use the same variable.

Mary took 7 hours to complete a trip with traffic. This would use the following expression:

$7x$

Mary took 4 hours to complete the same trip without traffic. The average rate of speed was 27 mph faster than the trip with traffic. This uses the following expression:

$4(x+27)$

Both trips had the same distance. From the information provided, we can set up the following equation:

$7x = 4(x+27)$

x represents the average rate of speed on both trips.

Distribute 4 to each term in parentheses:

$4 \times x = 4x$
$4 \times 27 = 108$

$7x = 4x + 108$

Subtract 4x from both sides:

$3x = 108$

Divide both sides by 3 to get x by itself:

$x = 36$

The average speed for the slower trip is 36 mph.

We can plug this value into the first equation:

$7(36) = 7 \times 36 = 252$

Mary lives 252 miles away from the mountains.
