Answer:

The boat is 5727.25ft far from the coast

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer the figure given.

We need to find how far is the boat from the coast = AB

Angle of elevation = 2°

The lighthouse on the coast is 200 feet tall, AC = 200 ft

We have

           tan2=\frac{AC}{AB}=\frac{200}{AB}\\\\AB=\frac{200}{tan2}=5727.25ft

The boat is 5727.25ft far from the coast

Leo is looking at two different savings plans. The first plan requires an initial deposit of $500 and grows at an annual interes
aksik [14]

Answer:

3rd Option and 4th Option

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: The options to the question is attached as picture below

<u>1st case</u>

Initial deposit (P) = 500

Annual interest rare (r) = 2.5%

Account balance after x years, y = P(1+r/100)×

y = 500(1+2.5/100)×

y = 500(1+0.025)×

y = 500(1.025)× ----- 3rd option

<u>2nd case</u>

Initial deposit (P) = 400

Annual interest rare (r) = 2%

Account balance after x years, y = P(1+r/100)×

y = 400(1+2/100)×

y = 400(1+0.02)×

y = 400(1.02)× ---- 4th option
