Answer:

Lengths of second triangle are 15,20,25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

One triangle side lengths = 6 , 8 ,10

Similar triangle perimeter =60

To Find:

Lengths of similar triangle = ?

Solution:

A similar triangle is a one in which there is a particular increase in lengths of the sides by a common ratio. This ratio is same for all the sides and by these the similar triangle is formed.

As Lengths are increased by a common ratio so the perimeter of the triangles which are similar will also increase by that

So for this problem if we find out the perimeter increase then we can find out sides

Now For 1st triangle whose sides are given

Lets its perimeter is perimeter 1

Now

Perimeter 1 =sum of length of all sides

= 6 + 8 +10

= 24

Now

Ratio = Perimeter of second triangle / Perimeter 1

= 60 / 24

= 2.5

So perimeter is increased by a factor of 2.5

We can find the length by multiplying each length of triangle 1 with this 2.5

Now Length of first side = 6*2.5

= 15

Length of second side = 8 * 2.5

=20

Length of third side = 10 * 2.5

= 25

Lengths of second triangle are 15,20,25

Neeedd helllp nowwwwwww!!!!! Please!!! Grad point <br> Find the measure of 1.

otez555 [7]

Maybe the answer is

<h3>Explanation</h3>

The L between 2 and 3 shows that yeah... it has a neat degree (sorry dont know how to explain lol) and so the triangle which has 3 side and total 180° will be 180° : 3 = 60 because the degree is neat. :v

How Much Have I Saved? Portfolio

The time value of money calculation can be performed using formula equations or online calculators.

The correct responses are;

1) Option 3

2) Option 2

3) The difference in principal is approximately $8,000

The difference in interest earned is approximately $2,977.87

4) It is better to invest more money at the beginning of the 30 years

Reasons:

Option 1: Present value = 0

Amount invested per month, A = $25/month

The Annual Percentage Rate, APR, r = 3.25%

Number of years = 30

The future value of an annuity is given by the formula;

$\displaystyle FV_{A} = \mathbf{A \cdot \left (\frac{ \left(1 + \frac{r}{m} \right)^{m\cdot t} - 1}{\frac{r}{m} } \right)}$

In option 1, m = 12 periods per year

Therefore;

$\displaystyle FV_{A} = 25 \times \left (\frac{ \left(1 + \frac{0.0325}{12} \right)^{12 \times 30} - 1}{\frac{0.0325}{12} } \right) \approx \mathbf{15,209.3}$

Contribution = $25 × 12 × 30 = $9,000

Total interest earned = $15,209.3 - $9,000 = $6,209.3

Final balance = $15,209.3

Option 2: Present value = 0

Amount, A = $75/quarter

m = 4 periods per year

The Annual Percentage Rate, APR = 4.00%

Therefore;

The effective interest rate is therefore;

$\displaystyle r_{eff} = \left(1 + \frac{0.04}{4} \right)^4 - 1 \approx \mathbf{0.04060401}$

$\displaystyle FV_{A} = 75 \times \left (\frac{ \left(1 + \frac{0.04060401}{4} \right)^{4 \times 30} - 1}{\frac{0.04060401}{4} } \right) \approx 17,437.7$

Using an online calculator, FV = $17,467.04

Contribution = $75 × 4 × 30 = $9,000

Total interest earned = $17,467.04 - $9,000 = $8,467.04

Final balance = $17,467.04

Option 3: Present value = $1,000

APR = 6.25%

m = 12 period per year

Number of years, t = 30 years

Therefore;

$\displaystyle FV = \left (1 + \frac{0.0625}{12} \right)^{12 \times 30} \approx \mathbf{6,489.17}$

Contribution = $1,000

Total interest earned = $6,489.17 - $1,000 = $5,489.17

Final balance = $6,489.17

The table of values is therefore;

$\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|}Option \# &Contribution &Total Interest Earned&Final Balance\\1&\$9,000&\$6,209.3 & \$15,209.3\\2&\$9,000&\$8,467.04 &\$17,467.04\\3&\$1,000&\$5,489.17&\$6,489.17\end{array}\right]$

1) The option that has the least amount invested are <u>option 3</u>

Option 3 investment plan is a present value of $1,000, invested for 30 years at 6.25% APR compounded monthly.

2) <u>Option 2</u> yielded the highest amount at the end of 30 years, given that the APR is higher than the APR for option 1, although the amount invested over the period are the same.

The basis of option 2 investment plan is $75 invested quarterly at 4.00% APR compounded monthly for 30 years.

3) The difference in the principal invested for the highest and lowest final balance is $9,000 - $1,000 = <u>$8,000</u>

The difference in the interest earned is; $8,467.04 - $5,489.17 = <u>$2,977.87</u>

4) In option 1 the present value is zero, therefore zero amount was invested at the beginning.

The interest to investment ration is 6,209.3:9,000 ≈ 0.7:1

In option 3, all the money was invested at the beginning.

The interest to investment ratio of option 3 is; 5,489.17:1,000 ≈ 5.5:1

Given that the interest to investment ratio, which is the return on investment is larger when more money is saved at the beginning as in option 3, <u>it is better to invest more money at the beginning</u>.

By selling a stool for rupees 67.50,a carpenter loses 10%.how much percent would he gain or lose by selling it for rupees 82.50.

valentina_108 [34]

Let the actual value of the stool be x.

So if the carpenter sells the stool x rupees he neither loses, now wins anything.

67.50 is the value x - 10% of x, that is:

67.50=x-0.1x
67.50=0.9x

x=67.50/0.9=75 (rupees) is the actual value of the stool.

Selling the stool for 82.50 rupees, the carpenter clearly would make a profit, say of y% of that actual value, that is y%*75.

So using the same method:

82.50=75+y%*75

y%*75=82.50-75=7.5

we can make the calculations, but clearly 7.5 is 10% of 75

Answer: 10% gain.
