Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for compound interest is
P = I (1 + r/n)^nt
where
P: the total amount of money in the account after a certain amount of time
I: the principal amount
r: the interest rate as a decimal
n: the number of times a year interest is compounded
t: the number of years passed
For Patrick:
P = 200 (1 + 0.02/12)^12*8
P = 200 (1 + 0.00166667)^96
P = 200 (1.00166667)^96
P = 200 * 1.00166667^96
P = $234.67
For Brooklyn:
P = 200 (1 + 0.04/4)^4*8
P = 200 (1 + 0.01)^32
P = 200 (1.01)^32
P = 200 * 1.01^32
P = $274.99
After 8 years, Patrick has $234.67 and Brooklyn has $274.99
Answer:
A. Similar using SAS; ∆ABC ~ ∆DFE
Step-by-step explanation:
m<B of ∆ABC = m<F of ∆DFE
AB corresponds to DF
AB/DF = 12/8 = 3/2
BC corresponds to FE
BC/FE = 24/16 = 3/2
Thus, the ratio of the corresponding sides of both triangles are the same. Therefore, both triangles has two sides that are proportional to each other, and also had an included corresponding angles that are congruent to each other.
By the SAS criterion, we can conclude that both triangles are similar to each other. That is, ∆ABC ~ ∆DFE
Pythagorean theorem is

and using that sin is opposite/hypotenuse, you can find the third side of the triangle.

now you know adjacent is 60, so cos=60/61
