8 \times 977 = 8 \times (1000 - 23) = 8000 - 8(23) = 8000 - 8(25-2) = 8000 - 200 + 16 = 7816

8 \times 977 = 8 \times (975 + 2) = 16 + 8 \times 900 + 8 \times 75 = 16 + 7200 + 24 \times 25 = 7216 + 600 = 7816


Why does it work? Mostly the distributive law.

Kelly deposited $4,205 in an account for 3.5 years. She earned $662.29 in interest. What interest rate did the bank pay her?
mylen [45]

Answer:

r = 4.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula:

I = Prt

r = I/(Pt)

Given:

I = 662.29

P = 4205

t = 3.5

Work:

r = I/(Pt)

r = 662.29/(4205 * 3.5)

r = 662.29/14717.5

r = 0.045

r = 4.5%

I need some help please

The definition of the tangent function tells you
   tan(angle) = (300 ft) / (distance to mountain)
This equation can be rearranged to
   (distance to mountain) = (300 ft) / tan(angle)

For the far end of the river,
   distance to far end = (300 ft) / tan(24°) ≈ 673.8 ft

For the near end of the river
   distance to near end = (300 ft) / tan(40°) ≈ 357.5 ft

Then the width of the river can be calculated by finding the difference of these distances:
   width of river = distance to far end - distance to near end
   width of river = 673.8 ft - 357.5 ft
   width of river = 316.3 ft

The appropriate answer choice is
   316 ft.
