Answer:
7.405882353 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Simple interest is
A = P(1+rt)
Where A is the amount in the account
P is the principle invested
r is the rate and
t is the time
6593.75 = 5000( 1+ .0425*t)
Divide each side by 5000
6593.75/5000 = ( 1+ .0425*t)
1.31475 = ( 1+ .0425*t)
Subtract 1 from each side
.31475 = .0425t
Divide each side by.0425
.31475/.0425 = .0425t/.0425
7.405882353 = t
7.405882353 years
So pythagrorean theorem is the ideal way and easiest way to solve this
a^2+b^2=c^2
8.5^2+11^2=x^2
72.25+121=193.25
square root of 193.25=13.9014 or 13.9 in
9.5^2+15^2=x^2
90.25+225=315.25
square root of 315.25=17.7553 or 17.8 ft
I did this manually on some notepaper but my scanner is not working.
The answer is 72 cm^2
