Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation:

Identify the value of each variable in the formula. Be sure to put the percent in decimal form. Be sure the units match—the rate is per hour and the time is in hours.

AA0rt=?=1000=−0.08/hour=48hours

Substitute the values in the formula.

AA=A0ert=1,000e−0.08⋅48

Compute the amount.

A≈21.49

Round to the nearest whole number.

A≈21

What is 36j + j<br><br> please help and explain if you can!!! :)
Norma-Jean [14]
36j + j = 37j

Explanation.
You could translate this sum into a normal sebtence: I have 36 apples and add 1 apple more.

The sum will then be 36 apples + apple = 37 apples.
Replacing the word (in this explanation 'apple') by a letter learns us 36a + a = 37a

Hence 36j + j = 37j

PLEASE HELP WILL GIVE FULL PONITS! 3. Using the known angle, what side is known? What side is unknown? Use opposite, adjacent, o
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

The trigonometric ratio that I would use to find the distance from the base of the tower to the keys is the tangent; tan (86°) = height / distance.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can draw a right triangle with angle 86°, opposite leg equal to the height (50 meter) and adjacent leg equal to the distance from the base of the tower to the keys: tan (86°) = 50 m / x

=> x = 50 m / tan(86°)

x = 50 m / 14.30 = 0.98 m

Solve for x: 9(x+1) = 25+X
Inessa [10]

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

9(x+1) = 25+x      

<u>Distribute the 9:</u>

<u />

  9x+9=25+x      

   

<u>Subtract x on both sides:</u>

<u />

  8x+9=25                      

   

<u>Subtract 9 on both sides:</u>

<u />

        8x=16    

                           

<u>Divide both sides by 8:</u>

          x=2
