Answer:

$2400

Step-by-step explanation:

First, converting R percent to r a decimal

r = R/100 = 8%/100 = 0.08 per year,

putting time into years for simplicity,

36 months ÷ 12 months/year = 3 years,

then, solving our equation

I = 10000 × 0.08 × 3 = 2400

I = $ 2,400.00

The simple interest accumulated

on a principal of $ 10,000.00

at a rate of 8% per year

for 3 years (36 months) is $ 2,400.00.

A person who is 68in tall casts a shadow that is 54in long. At the same moment, a tree casts a shadow that is 18ft long. What is

34kurt

Answer:

<u>22.67 ft</u> is the height of tree.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Height of a person is 68 in and casts a shadow that is 54 in long.

At the same point, a tree casts a shadow that is 18 ft long.

Now, to find the height of tree.

Let the height of tree be $x.$

If height of a person is 68 in he casts a shadow of 54 in.

So, 68 in is equivalent to 54 in.

Thus, $x$ is equivalent to 18 ft.

Now, to get the height of tree by using cross multiplication method:

$\frac{68}{54} =\frac{x}{18}$

<em>By cross multiplying we get:</em>

<em /> $1224=54x$ <em />

<em>Dividing both sides by 54 we get:</em>

$22.67=x$

$x=22.67\ ft.$

Therefore, the height of the tree is 22.67 ft.
