and we do this one the same way as the other.

Answer:

t=2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the formula to simple interest. We are asked to find the variable t using the given formula and given values.

Simple interest formula: I=Prt, where,

I = Amount of interest after t years,

P = Principal amount,

r = Annual interest rate in decimal form,

t = Time in years.

Given: I=\$540, P=\$4800, r=4.5

Let us convert our given interest rate in decimal form.

r=4.5\%=\frac{4.5}{100}=0.045

Upon substituting our given values in simple interest formula, we will get:

\$540=\$4800\cdot 0.045t

\$540=\$216t

\frac{\$540}{\$216}=\frac{\$216t}{\$216}

2.5=t

Therefore, the value of t is 2.5 years.

The lengths of two sides of a right triangle are 12 inches and 15 inches. What is the difference between the two possible length
Lena [83]
In the problem, two legs measurement were given such as:
Leg 1 = 12 inches
Leg 2 = 15 inches

We need to solve for the third leg. Since it is a right triangle, we can use Pythagorean theorem in solving the missing leg:
c²=b²+a²

When we assume that the third leg is the "c", we can for the value such as:
c² = 12²+15²
c=19.21

When we assume that the third is either "a" or "b":
15² =a² + 12²
a=9

Then, the possible measurement of the third leg is 9 or 19.21.
The difference between the two possible answer is shown below:
Difference = 19.21 -9 = 10.21
Difference =10.21

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever you are asked to find the number of square feet covered by something, you are finding an area. To find the area of Jason’s circle, you first need to figure out if you have been given the radius or the diameter. By definition, the diameter of a circle is the longest distance across the circle, so we know here that the diameter is 8 feet. This means that the radius is 4 feet. So...

A = π(4)2

= 16π

≈ 50.2 square feet

So, Jason’s circle will cover about 50.2 square feet of his wall (and B is the closest one to that)
