In order to ask me the width of a river, similar triangles can be used as shown in the diagram. Three markers O, C, and E are pl

aced on the upper Bank of the river for me a right triangle. He is on the back of the river and OC is perpendicular to CE. A marker in is placed across the river and cold in here with C & E. Another marker, A is Place downstream on the bank so that see it is perfectly Dacula to in a. If OC is 66 ft, CE is 44 ft, and NA is 93 ft, find the estimated width of the River, and E, in feet.

Answer:

  • NE = 62 ft
  • width = 106 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Speech to text conversion makes this problem almost unintelligible. Ordinary English writing with appropriate math symbols would probably communicate more clearly.

By similar triangles, ...

  NE/NA = CE/CO

  NE/93 = 44/66

  NE = 93·(44/66) = 62 . . . feet

The estimated width of the river is ...

  width = NE + CE = 62 + 44 = 106 . . . . feet

Suppose that $2000 is placed in a savings account at an annual rate of 4.6%, compounded quarterly. Assuming that no withdrawals
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

It will take 35.46 quarters for the account to grow to $3000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the annual rate is compounded quarterly, this can be calculated using the formula for calculating the future value as follows:

FV = PV * (1 + r)^n ............................ (1)

Where;

FV = future value or the amount the deposit expected to grow to = $3,000

PV = Present value or the amount place in the savings = $2,000

r = Quarterly rate = Annual rate / 4 = 4.6% / 4 = 0.046 / 4 = 0.0115

n = number of quarters it will take for the loan to grow to $3000 = ?

Substituting the values into equation (1) and solve for n, we have:

$3,000 = $2,000 * (1 + 0.0115)^n

$3,000 / $2,000 = (1.0115)^n

1.50 = (1.0115)^n

Loglinearise both sides, we have:

log(1.50) = n log(1.0115)

0.176091259055681 = n * 0.00496588710682352

n = 0.176091259055681 / 0.00496588710682352

n = 35.4601816891322

Rounding to the nearest hundredth, which also implies to rounding to 2 decimal places, we have:

n = 35.46

Since the the annual rate is compounded quarterly, it will therefore take 35.46 quarters for the account to grow to $3000.

A lighthouse casts a 128-ft shadow. A nearby lamppost that measures 5
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer: 80 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write these as fractions and do cross multiplication with the numerator being the height of the object while the denominator being the length of the shadow:

5 * 128 = 8x

640 = 8x

80 = x

Thus, the height of the lighthouse is 80 feet tall.
