Answer:

The rate of interest for the investment is 4.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The interest amount for investment = I = $250

The investment amount = p = $3500

The time period for investment = 18 months = 1.5 years

Let The rate of interest applied = r%

<u>Now, From Compound Interest </u>

Amount = Principal × (1+\dfrac{\textrm rate}{100})^{\textrm time}

∵ Interest = Amount - Principal

So, I = A - p

Or, A = I + p

Or, A = $250 + $3500

i.e A = $3750

∴ A = p × (1+\dfrac{\textrm r}{100})^{\textrm t}

Or, $3750 = $3500 × (1+\dfrac{\textrm r}{100})^{\textrm 1.5}

Or, \dfrac{3750}{3500} =  (1+\dfrac{\textrm r}{100})^{\textrm 1.5}

Or, 1.071428 =  (1+\dfrac{\textrm r}{100})^{\textrm 1.5}Or, [tex](1.071428)^{\frac{1}{1.5}} = (1 + \dfrac{r}{100})

Or, 1.047069 = (1 + \dfrac{r}{100})

Or, 1.047069 - 1 = \dfrac{r}{100}

Or, 0.047069 =  \dfrac{r}{100}

∴ r = 0.047069 × 100

i.e r = 4.7069

So, The rate of interest = r = 4.7%

Hence, The rate of interest for the investment is 4.7% Answer

From the top of a vertical pole the angle of depression to Ian standing at the foot of the pole is 43°. Liam is on the other sid
kifflom [539]

The height of the pole based on the angle of depression given is 62.2m.

<h3>How to calculate the height?</h3>

From the information given, Liam is on the other side of the pole, and the angle of depression from the top of the pole to Liam is 52° and the boys are standing 58 m apart.

Let the height = h

It should be noted that:

tan = opposite/adjacent

tan 43° = 58/h

tan 43° × h = 58

0.9325  × h = 58

0.9325h = 58

h = 58/0.9325

h = 62.2m

Answer:

a is drawn to scale, b isn't drawn to scale

Explanation:

a is drawn to scale because 10 cm=5 cm*2 and if measure it that side is exactly two of the 5 cm side. for the 25 cm it should be the same length as the 5 cm side and 20 cm side altogether. B isn't drawn to scale because the 40 cm side should be double the length of the 20 cm side, but it's less than the double the 20 cm side.
