Answer:

15.2 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We use Pythagorean Theorem to find the height.

The hypotenuse of the formed triangle =  length of ladder = 16 feet

base = 5 feet

let h = height of house

16 ^2 = 5^2  +  h^2

256 = 25 + h^2

231 = h^2

h = root(231) = 15.1986 feet

1600 dollars is placed in an account with an annual interest rate of 5.25%. How much will be in the account after 25 years, to t
Andru [333]

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential Functions:

y=ab^x

y=ab

x

a=\text{starting value = }1600

a=starting value = 1600

r=\text{rate = }5.25\% = 0.0525

r=rate = 5.25%=0.0525

\text{Exponential Growth:}

Exponential Growth:

b=1+r=1+0.0525=1.0525

b=1+r=1+0.0525=1.0525

\text{Write Exponential Function:}

Write Exponential Function:

y=1600(1.0525)^x

y=1600(1.0525)

x

Put it all together

\text{Plug in time for x:}

Plug in time for x:

y=1600(1.0525)^{25}

y=1600(1.0525)

25

y= 5750.0628984

y=5750.0628984

Evaluate

y\approx 5750.06

y≈5750.06
