Use pythagorean theorem - a^2+ b^2 = c^2
a = 2ft, b = ?, c = 6ft
2 x 2 + b^2 = 6 x 6
4 + b^2 = 36
b^2 = 36 - 4 = 32
b = square root of 32
= 5.66ft

​$4000 is deposited in an account that pays an APR of 8.4​% compounded annually. How long will it take for the balance to reach
patriot [66]

Answer: number of years that it will take for the balance to reach ​$120,000 is 42 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial amount deposited into the account is $4000. This means that the principal is $4000

P = 4000

It was compounded annually. This means that it was compounded once in a year. So

n = 1

The rate at which the principal was compounded is 8.4%. So

r = 8.4/100 = 0.084

Let the number of years that it will take for the balance to reach ​$120,000. It means that it was compounded for a total of t years.

Amount, A at the end of t years is $120,000

The formula for compound interest is

A = P(1+r/n)^nt

120000 = 4000(1 + 0.084/1)^1×t

120000/4000 = 1.084^t

30 = 1.084^t

t = 42 years

The volume V of a solid right circular cylinder is given by V = πr2h where r is the radius of the cylinder and h is its height.
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

8.20in³

Step-by-step explanation:

Given V = πr²h

r is the radius = 1.5in

h is the height = 6in

thickness of wall of the cylinder dr = 0.04in

top and bottom thickness dh 0.07in+0.07in = 0.14in

To compute the volume, we will find the value of dV

dV = dV/dr • dr + dV/dh • dh

dV/dr = 2πrh

dV/dh = πr²

dV = 2πrh dr + πr² dh

Substituting the values into the formula

dV = 2π(1.5)(6)•(0.04) + π(1.5)²(6) • 0.14

dV = 2π (0.36)+π(1.89)

dV = 0.72π+1.89π

dV = 2.61π

dV = 2.61(3.14)

dV = 8.1954in³

Hence volume, in cubic inches, of metal in the walls and top and bottom of the can is 8.20in³ (to two dp)

Find the number to be added to complete the square x^2+6x-4
N76 [4]
Assuming we want to factor the formula to (x+3)(x+3), you want to have a +9 where there is a -4 now. So you must add 13.
