Answer: 25 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's imagine that this line is the leg A______________B________C
x 11
|___________36____________|
From A to C = 36 inches
From B to C = 11 inches
To find A to B all we have to do is subtract the knee to ankle length (11) from total leg length (36), which 36 - 11 = 25 inches.
Your interest formula is given to you.
<span>Interest in a year = principal (the amount invested) * rate (the interest rate) * period (the time you're measuring) </span>
<span>Interest = 55,000 * 2% * 1 year = 55,000 * 0.02 * 1 = $1,100 </span>
<span>How much would you need to have made for your spending power to keep with inflation? Your interest rate would have needed to match the inflation rate, otherwise, prices are going up faster than you're saving. </span>
<span>Required interest = 55,000 * 3.24% * 1 year = 55,000 * 0.0324 * 1 = $1,782 </span>
<span>How much buying power did you lose? The difference between your required interest and your actual interest. </span>
<span>Buying power lost = 1,782 - 1,100 = $682. You lost this much in buying power. </span>
A way of undoing any operation, is using the inverse of the operation. So if you want to ‘undo’ addition you subtract, and if you want to ‘undo’ multiplication you divide.
