Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a) D/280 = tan(90 - 6)
D = 280tan84 = 2,664 ft
b) D/280 = tan(90 - 16)
D = 280tan74 = 976 ft
ship speed = (2664 - 976) / 43 = 39.2 ft/s
Answer: Technically, it would be 9/3, but you can simplify that to 3.
<span>The simple interest formula is:
A = P · (1 + r · t)
where:
A = total amount
P = principal
r = rate
t = time
Let's solve for r:
A = P + P · r · t
P · r · t = A - P
r = (A - P) / (P · t)
The quantity A - P is defined as the Interest, therefore:
r = I / (P <span>· t)
= 1020 / (8500 </span>· 4)
= 0.03
Therefore the rate was 3%.
