Answer:
y=5,902,060*(.957)^t
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the original amount would be decreasing and it's an exponential one, hence the "every year", we can determine that it's an exponential decay equation.
The exponential delay equation is y=A*(1-r)^t. The y is the remaining amount, A is the original amount, r is the rate in decimal form, and t is for years. "1-r" is for decreasing rates and "1+r" is for increasing rates.
First thing we need to do is turn the rate, 4.3%, from a percentage to a decimal. You can do this by moving the decimal two places to the right, which gives you 0.043.
Now plug the numbers into the equation.
y=5,902,060*(1-0.043)^t
Simplify what's inside the parenthesis and get your final equation.
y=5,902,060*(.957)^t
The answer should be 1y and -6y

Answer: <u>
100 ft</u>
is the hypotenuse</h3>
===================================================
Work Shown:
a = 60 and b = 80 are the two known sides
c is the unknown hypotenuse
Applying the pythagorean theorem gets us...
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
60^2 + 80^2 = c^2
3600 + 6400 = c^2
10,000 = c^2
c^2 = 10,000
c = sqrt(10,000)
c = 100
A quick way to see that 100 ft is the missing side is to note that a 6,8,10 right triangle scales up to 60,80,100 after multiplying all three sides by 10.
Or you could start with a 3,4,5 right triangle and multiply all three sides by 20.
