Answer:
-1.23076923077
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculation:
First, converting R percent to r a decimal
r = R/100 = 5%/100 = 0.05 per year,
then, solving our equation
I = 20 × 0.05 × 2 = 2
I = $ 2.00
The simple interest accumulated
on a principal of $ 20.00
at a rate of 5% per year
for 2 years is $ 2.00.
From a point on the ground 47 feet from the foot of a tree, the angle of elevation of the top of the tree is 35º. Find the height of the tree to the nearest foot.
Answer:
x = 30
Step-by-step explanation:
here 50 is hypotenuse as it is opposite of 90 degree.
x and x + 10 are the two other smaller sides of a right angled triangle respectively.
using pythagoras theorem,
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
x^2 + (x + 10)^2 = 50^2
x^2 + x^2 + 20x + 100 = 2500
2x^2 + 20x + 100 = 2500
2x^2 + 20x + 100 - 2500 = 0
2x^2 + 20x - 2400 = 0
2(x^2 + 10x - 1200) = 0
x^2 + 10x - 1200 = 0
x^2 + (40 - 30) - 1200 = 0
x^2 + 40x - 30x - 1200 = 0
x(x + 40) - 30(x + 40x) = 0
(x + 40)(x - 30) = 0
either x + 40 = 0 OR x - 30 = 0
x = 0 - 40
x = -40
x - 30 = 0
x = 30
x = -40,30
since the length and distance is not measured in negative ur answer will be 30
