your equation for the prblem is a=p(1-r)^t

when you put $28,000 as A and make 13% into 0.13 and solve your B comes to 0.87. hope this was helpful :)

Not sure
te rate is r
for decay, it is
A=P(1-r)^t
r=rate
P=present amount
dunno what b is
but I guess
A=28000(1-0.13)^t
A=28000(0.87)^t
I would guess the decay factor would be 0.87

Answer:

$\large\boxed{\theta=-\dfrac{\pi}{4}+k\pi\ or\ \theta=k\pi}\ for\ k\in\mathbb{Z}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\tan^2\theta+\tan\theta=0\\\\\tan\theta(\tan\theta+1)=0\iff\tan\theta=0\ \vee\ \tan\theta+1=0\\\\\tan\theta=0\Rightarrow \theta=k\pi\ \text{for}\ k\in\mathbb{Z}\\\\\tan\theta+1=0\qquad\text{subtract 1 from both sides}\\\\\tan\theta=-1\Rightarrow\theta=-\dfrac{\pi}{4}+k\pi\ \text{for}\ k\in\mathbb{Z}$

Answer:

m∠5 = 44°; m∠7 = 44°

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle 4 and 1 are supplementary (they make up a line) and their sum is equal to 180 degrees.

Subtracting the measure of angle 4 from 180 degrees gives the measure of angle 1. (180 - 136 = 44).

So Angle 1's measure is 44 degrees.

According to the Corresponding Angle Postulate, Angle 1 and Angle 5 are congruent. Therefore, m∠5 = 44°

According to the Vertical Angles Postulate (if two angles are vertical, they are congruent), ∠5 ≅ ∠7, meaning that m∠5 = m∠7.

So m∠7 = 44°
