Answer:

The bird is at a height of 1.95 km from the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the distance between susan and mark is 7 km and bird is between  susan and mark. The angles of elevation they make are 20º and 50º, respectively.

Draw a perpendicular line from the bird on base.

Let the distance of susan from and the altitude be x.

In triangle ABS,

tan(20^{\circ})=\frac{AB}{x}

tan(20^{\circ})x=AB

0.364x=AB       ..... (1)

In triangle ABM,

tan(50^{\circ})=\frac{AB}{7-x}

1.192(7-x)=AB     ..... (2)

From (1) and (2), we get

0.364x=1.192(7-x)

1.556x=8342

x=5.36

The length of AB is,

AB=0.364(5.36)=1.95147\approx 1.95

Therefore, the he bird is at a height of 1.95 km from the ground.

Grace is planning on purchasing an Akai Professional MPC5000 drum machine for $2195. She's been pre-approved to finance her purc
Genrish500 [490]

1) Her monthly payment is $40.97 if she finance the total amount

2) She will pay $2458.2 for the MPC5000

3)Her monthly payment will be $26.50 if she pay her saved up money upfront

4) She will pay $2365.4 for the MPC5000

5) Yes, I recommend to pay the $775 upfront . If she pay upfront, then the amount she needs to pay for the MPC5000 is less.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of the drum machine is $2195

The APR is 12% over 60 months

1) the APR for 60 months is 12%

So, the APR for 1 month is

12/60 = 0.2%

The interest per month = 0.2% of 2195

= (0.2 x 2195) / 100

= 4.39

The amount to be paid per month is

= monthly amount + interest

= (2195/60) + 4.39

= 36.58 + 4.39

=$ 40.97

2) If she pays $40.97 per month then the total payment (for 60 months) for the drum machine

= 40.97 x 60

= $ 2458.2

3) the total cost is $2195 out of which she pays $775 upfront.

So she have to borrow less .

The amount to be financed is

2195- 775= $1420

The monthly interest is,

(0.2 x 1420) /100 = 2.84

Monthly she have to pay

23.66+ 2.84= $26.50

4) If she pay $775 upfront then the remaining $1420 is financed

Her monthly payment is $26.50

Then for 60 months she will pay,

26.50 x 60= $1590.4

The total amount paid for the drum machine is

775+1590.4 =$2365.4

10, because when you use a scientific calculator you get 10.09950494
which would be round to 10 because after the decimal the number is 0 below 5 so 10 stays as 10
