Answer:

$8000

Step-by-step explanation:

The method for calculating simple interest (I) is

I = $\frac{PRT}{100}$

where P is the principal, R is interest rate, T is time in years

here I = 1120, R = 3.5, T = 4 and P is to be found, thus

1120 = $\frac{P(3.5)(4)}{100}$ ( multiply both sides by 100 )

3.5 × 4 × P = 112000

14P = 112000 ( divide both sides by 14 )

P = $\frac{112000}{14}$ = $8000

4sin^2 + 13cos^2 = 7. Find cos <br><br> Please read the picture question carefully and help !!

Vanyuwa [196]

4 sin^2 θ + 13cos^2 θ = 7
sin^2 θ = 1 - cos^ θ
4 - 4cos^2 θ + 13cos^2 θ = 7
9cos^2 θ = 3
cos^2 θ = 1/3
cos θ = # (1/3) # - square root
Square root of (1/3) has +1/3 and -1/3 as values of cos
Find the key angle by doing the cos inverse of #1/3
K.A = cos^-1 #(1/3) = 0.955
θ lies in all 4 quadrants
The values of θ are:
θ = 0.955, 2.186, 4.096, 7.23
Ignore 0.955, 2.186, 4.096, 7.23 as they are out of range pi/2 = 1.571
The the value of θ = 0.955 = 0.96 (to 2 d.p) radian
