Answer:

The exponential model is: Cost after n years = 400 * (1 + 0.02)ⁿ

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Cost of the TV set in 1999 = US$ 400

Annual increase rate = 2% = 0.02

2. Write an exponential model to represent this data.

Cost after n years = Cost in 1999 * (1 + r)ⁿ

where r = 0.02 and n = the number of years since 1999

Replacing with the real values for 2020, we have:

Cost after 21 years = 400 * (1 + 0.02)²¹

Cost after 21 years = 400 * 1.5157

Cost after 21 years = $ 606.28

The TV set costs $ 606.28 in 2020.

The exponential model is: Cost after n years = 400 * (1 + 0.02)ⁿ

HELP GEOMETRY PLEASE

Alexandra [31]

For each of the problems, twice the angle formed by the chords is equal to half the sum of the angles of the arcs.

So, for the first problem, we have $94 \cdot 2 = x+103$ , so $x = 188 - 103 = 85$ .

For the second, $102 \cdot 2 = x + 118$ , so $x = 204 - 118 = 86$ .

For the last problem, $106 \cdot 2 = x + 88$ , so $x = 212 - 88 = 124$ .

I will give brainliest!! THERE IS NO OTHER INFORMATION GIVEN!! In ⊙O, chord XY is 8 cm long and is 10 cm from O. What is the rad

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

radius ≈ 10.77 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The segment from the centre O to the chord is a perpendicular bisector.

Thus 2 right triangles are formed with legs 10 cm and 4 cm ( half of XY )

The radius r is the hypotenuse.

Using Pythagoras' identity, then

r² = 4² + 10² = 16 + 100 = 116 ( take the square root of both sides )
