Answer:
16,244.26
Step-by-step explanation:
14,187.13 + (14.5% × 14,187.13) =
14,187.13 + 14.5% × 14,187.13 =
(1 + 14.5%) × 14,187.13 =
(100% + 14.5%) × 14,187.13 =
114.5% × 14,187.13 =
114.5 ÷ 100 × 14,187.13 =
114.5 × 14,187.13 ÷ 100 =
1,624,426.385 ÷ 100 =
16,244.26385 ≈
The idea is to use the tangent line to 
at 
in order to approximate 
.
We have
so the linear approximation to 
is
Hence 
and 
.
Then
Hey! $1.96 x £25,000 = $49,000
Then to change it back you:
$49,000 divided by 1.75 = £28,000
You start by finding the slope : y2 - y1 / x2 - x1
2 - 8 / 4 - (-16)
- 6 / 20
m = - 3 / 10
Point slope form : y - y1 = m( x- x1 )
You can pick either of the coordinates and substitute them in
POINT SLOPE FORM EQUATION : y - 8 = -3/10 ( x + 16 )
Yu can you think how many triangles fit in that parallelogram? The answer is six. four in the central rectangle and two at the ends, then the area of the parallelogram will be six times greater than that of the triangle in that graph. Good luck! M.
