6 0

The equation for cosine is cos(x)=Adjacent/Hypotenuse
The inside trig function is arccos(3/5), which means cos(x)=3/5. Comparing cos(x)=Adjacent/Hypotenuse with cos(x)=3/5

Find Adjacent=3 and Hypotenuse=5.
Then, using the Pythagorean theorem, find Opposite=?
a² = c² - b²
a² = 5² - 3² = 25 - 9 = 16
a = √16 = 4

Adjacent=3Opposite=4Hypotenuse=5

Plug in the value for sin(x) = opposite/hypotenuse

sin(x) = 4/5

Thang decided to borrow $2000 from his local bank to help pay for a car. His loan was for 3 years at a simple intrest rat it 5%.

irakobra [83]

Answer:Thang will pay $300 as interest

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the formula for determining simple interest which is expressed as

I = PRT/100

Where

P represents the principal

R represents interest rate

T represents time in years

I = interest after t years

From the information given

T = 3 years

P = $2000

R = 5%

Therefore

I = (2000 × 5 × 3)/100

I = 30000/100

I = $300
