15. [4] insufficient information. only given SA
16. There are 3 right triangles, 3 Pythagorean theorem equations
x²+b²= 16²
12²+a² = x²
a²+4² = b²

combine equations using substitution to get in terms of only x
substitute b² for (a² +x²) in first equation
x²+a²+4²=16²
substitute a² for (x² - 12²)
x²+x²-12²+4² = 16²
solve for x
2x² - 144 + 16 = 256
2x² = 256 + 144 - 16
2x² = 384
x² = 384/2
x² = 192
x = 13.85

rounded to nearest tenth, x = 13.9

8000$ is invested in an account the yields 6% interest per year. After how many years will the account worth 13709.60$ if the in

ozzi

Answer:

After 9 years the account will be worth 13709.60$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

We are given the following in the question:

P = $8000

r = 6% = 0.046

n = 12

The compound interest is given by:

$A = p\bigg(1+\dfrac{r}{n}\bigg)^{nt}$

where A is the amount, p is the principal, r is the interest rate, t is the time in years.

Putting the values, we get,

$13709.60 = 8000\bigg(1+\dfrac{0.06}{12}\bigg)^{12t}\\\\\dfrac{13709.60}{8000} = \bigg(1+\dfrac{0.06}{12}\bigg)^{12t}\\\\\Rightarrow 1.7137 = (1.005)^{12t}\\\Rightarrow t \approx 9$

Thus, after 9 years the account will be worth 13709.60$
