Answer:

Distance= 6.6 miles

Bearing= N 62.854°W

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's determine angle b first

Angle b=20° (alternate angles)

Using cosine rule

Let the distance between the liner and the port be x

X² =8.8²+2.4²-2(8.8)(2.4)cos20

X²= 77.44 + 5.76-(39.69)

X²= 43.51

X= √43.51

X= 6.596

X= 6.6 miles

Let's determine the angles within the triangle using sine rule

2.4/sin b = 6.6/sin20

(2.4*sin20)/6.6= sin b

0.1244 = sin b

7.146= b°

Angle c= 180-20-7.146

Angle c= 152.854°

For the bearing

110+7.146= 117.146

180-117.146= 62.854°

Bearing= N 62.854°W

Jason’s savings account has a balance of $2179. After 5 years , what will the amount of interest be at 6% compounded quarterly?
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

$755.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Determine the compound amount first and then subtract the principal from it, to find the amount of interest.

The compound amount formula is A = P (1 + r/n)^(nt), where

P is the initial principal, r is the interest rate as a decimal fraction, n is the number of compounding periods per year, and t is the number of years.  Here, P = $2179; t = 5 yrs; r = 0.06; and n = 4 (quarterly compounding).

We get:

A = $2179(1 + 0.06/4)^(4*5), or $2179(1.015)^20, or $2179(1.347) = $2937.80.

The compound amount is $2934.80.  Subtracting the $2179 principal results in the interest earned:  $755.80.
