I'm assuming the funds earn 5% yearly?
Call x the amount he saves every year. The first year's deposit will be multiplied by 1.05 three times, the next will be multiplied by 1.05 twice, the third will be multiplied by 1.05 once, and the fourth will not generate interest (as it will immediately be used to buy the car).
Therefore, x(1.05^3+1.05^2+1.05+1)=21000, so 4.31x=21000. Dividing by 4.31, we see that x is approximately equal to 4872.

Multiply 19.74 times 0.075 (7.5% converted to a decimal) to get 1.48 (the amount of tax) and add that to the cost of the meal (19.74)
159.98 divided by 6 is 26.66, hopefully this is correct...
Answer:
1. 7.1 cm
2. 10.9 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
1. You know the legs of a right triangle must be shorter than the hypotenuse. The only answer choice shorter than 8 cm is 7.1 cm.
__
2. By the Law of Sines, ...
AB/AC = sin(ACB)/sin(B)
AB = AC·sin(72°)/sin(38°) = 1.545·AC
The approximate value of AC from problem 1 is sufficient to get you close to the answer.
AB ≈ 7.1×1.545 ≈ 10.9 . . . cm
