So lets remember the formula for interest first.
#lightbulb
here it is <span>A = P(1 + rt)
all we really have to do is plug in our rates, principles, and time into equation.
P = $800
t = 2 years
r = 6.5% or as a decimal 0.065
now lets look at our new equation that finally has numbers in it

A = 800[1 +(0.065)(2)] first lets take care of the 0.065 and 2 by multiplying them together. thus our new equation.
A = 800(1+ 0.13) then we add the 1 to the 0.13 and get 1.13
800(1.13) from here we just multiply and that equals 904
since we are looking for what is earned we take 904 and subtract 800 to get that answer. Here is the math.

904 - 800 = 104
he made 104 dollars in 2 years!
hope this is right.
have a good one:)

merry christmas:D

The parabolic arch of a bridge over a one-way road can be described by the equation y = -x^2 + 6, where x and y ar emeasured in

Vladimir [108]

So check the picture below

if we check the solutions or zeros for the equation, we get $\bf y=-x^2+6\implies 0=-x^2+6\implies x=\pm \sqrt{6}$

and as you can see in the picture, the value of "x" when y = 3.5, or the height of the truck is $\bf y=-x^2+6\implies 3.5=-x^2+6\implies x=\pm \sqrt{2.5}$

the truck, ends up with a clearance of $\bf \sqrt{2.5}-1.5$ on either side, so, the maximum clearance, the truck can have, those two clearances added together, $\bf 2(\sqrt{2.5}-1.5)$
