Answer: 3.085% per year

Step-by-step explanation:

P = 100000

F = 12*12000 = 144000

t = 12

144000 = 100000(1 - r)¹²

144000/100000 = (1 - r)¹²

1.44 =  (1 - r)¹²

log 1.44 =  log (1 - r)¹²

log 1.44 =  12 log (1 - r)

0.158362 = 12 log (1 - r)

0.158362/12 = log (1 - r)

0.013197 = log (1 - r)

10⁰.⁰¹³¹⁹⁷ = 1 - r

1.03085 = 1 - r

r = 1.03085 - 1

r = 0.03085

r = 3.085 %

A triangle has an area of 36 square feet. If the height of the triangle is 6 more feet than its base, what is its height and bas
andriy [413]
If b is the base then the height h=b+6. As we have S=bh/2 then
36=b(b+6)/2;
b²+6b-72=0;
D/4=3²+72=81
b₁=-3-9=-12
b₂=-3+9=6.
The base is always positive so b=6, h=6+6=12.
Answer: base=6 ft, height=12 ft.
