Jack invested some money in a bank at a fixed rate of interest compounded annually. The equation below shows the value of his in

vestment after x years:
f(x) = 300(1.02)x

What was the average rate of change of the value of Jack's investment from the third year to the fifth year?

Jack's investment on the third year
f(3) = 300(1.02)³ = 318.36 (rounded to 2 decimal place)

Jack's investment on the fifth year
f(5) = 300(1.02)⁵ = 331.22 (rounded to 2 decimal place)

The average rate of change from year 3 to year 5  = (331.22 - 318.36) ÷ (5 - 3)
The average rate of change = 12.86 ÷ 2 = 6.43

The equation is f(x) = 300 * (1.02)^x

1) Evaluate the equation for x = 3 years and x = 5 years

x = 3 => f(3) = 300 * (1.02)^3 = $318.3624

x= 5 => f(5) = 300 * (1.02)^5 = $331.2242

2) The average rate of change is [change in f(x) ] / [change in x]

change in f(x) = f(5) - f(3) = $12.8678

change in x = 5year - 3 year = 2 year

Average rate of change = $12.8678 / 2 year = $6.43 / year   <---- answer

M_6 is (2x – 5)º and m_8 is (x + 5)º.
HACTEHA [7]

m_6 + m_8 = 180º because they form a straight line.

So, (2x-5) + (x+5) = 180

    3x = 180

      x = 60

So, m_115º    (2•60 - 5 = 115)

Also, because the two lines are parallel m_6 = m_3 by alternate interior angles.

So, m_3 = 115º

List the sides of triangle ΔMNP in ascending order (shortest to longest) if: Chapter Reference a m∠M = 64°, m∠N = 48°
scoray [572]
The given angles are 
M = 64
N = 48
where P is unknown. While we don't know P at first, we can solve for it. Recall that for any triangle, the three angles always add to 180 degrees

M+N+P = 180
64+48+P = 180
112+P = 180
112+P-112 = 180-112
P = 68

-------------------------------------------

So in summary so far
M = 64
N = 48
P = 68

The shortest side is opposite the smallest angle. The side MP is opposite the smallest angle N = 48

The longest side is going to be opposite the largest angle. In this case, side MN is opposite the largest angle P = 68

The medium side is opposite the medium angle. So NP is the medium side length

-------------------------------------------------------

Final Answers:
Shortest Side = MP
Medium Side = NP
Longest Side = MN
See the attached image for a visual summary

The ascending order would be: MP, NP, MN

Note: Something like MP is the same as PM. The order of endpoints for any given individual segment doesn't matter

Find sin θ if θ is in Quadrant III and tan θ = . 0.958
Leokris [45]
Use the following identities:
sec^2 = 1  + tan^2 \\  \\ sec = \frac{1}{cos} \\  \\ sin^2 = 1 - cos^2
Also because the angle is in quadrant 3, sin must be negative.
Therefore
sin = - \sqrt{1 - \frac{1}{1 + tan^2}}
Subbing in tan = 0.958
sin \theta = -0.69178
