The distance to the top of the building above the range finder can be found from the Pythagorean theorem.
.. d = √(115² -89²) ≈ 72.8 . . . . feet

Adding the height of the range finder, we find the height of the building to be
.. h = d+3 = 75.8 ft

amber deposits $870 in an account that has a simple interest rate of 8% per year. After 5 years, how much interest will Amber ha
charle [14.2K]
For simple interest, the formula is I = PRT, where I = interest, P = principal borrowed or deposited, R = rate as a decimal, and T = time in years.

Your information:
I = (870)(0.08)(5)
I = 348

Add the interest to the principal for your total balance

348 + 870 = $1218 will be the total balance in the account.
