Answer:

The correct option is D. The interest is about 8%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of money in a bank account that is compounded yearly can be represented by the function

A(y)=P(1+r)^y

Where P is the amount initially deposited, r is the annual interest rate expressed as a decimal, and y is the number of years that have passed since the initial deposit.

The initial amount is $2700, numbers of years is 14 and the amount after 14 years is $7930.42.

7930.42=2700(1+r)^{14}

2.937=(1+r)^{14}

Taking log both sides.

log2.937=log(1+r)^{14}        (loga^b=bloga)

0.4679=14log(1+r)

0.033422=log(1+r)

10^{0.033422}=10^{log(1+r)}

1.079999=1+r            (10^{loga}=a)                        

0.079999=r

r\approx 0.08

Therefore the correct option is D. The interest is about 8%.

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

7930.42 = 2700(1+r)¹²

(1+r)¹⁴ = 2.9371925926

14×ln(1+r) = ln2.9371925926

ln(1+r) = 0.076961016

1+r = e^0.076961016

1+r = 1.0799999729

r = 0.0799999729 × 100

= 8%

A boat is heading towards a lighthouse, whose beacon-light is 139 feet above the
Novay_Z [31]

The horizontal distance between light house and boat is 1588.78 feet approximately.

The figure is given by,

Here, AB  = height of the lighthouse bacon light above the water = 139 feet

Now angle ACB = 5 degree

Let the horizontal distance of light house from the boat = BC = x feet

So by trigonometric function we get,

tan 5 = AB/BC

tan 5 = 139/x

x = 139/tan 5 = 1588.78 (approximately)

Hence the horizontal distance between light house and boat is 1588.78 feet approximately.
