The shortest distance they have to travel to return to their starting point is 9.4 miles.
Explanation
The joggers run 8 mile north and then runs 5 miles west. we have to calculate the shortest distance they have to travel to return to their starting point.
The distance traveled north and west respectively makes the height and base of a right angled triangle.
to find the shortest distance to the starting point, the hypotenuse has to be determined.
height h=8 miles
base b=5 miles
using pythagoras theorem
The shortest distance to the starting point is 9.4 miles
The person would have to leave the money in the bank for 7.8 years for it to reach 13,500 dollars.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1; First we must calculate how much interest is generated for a single year. The annual interest rate is 4.5% i.e. 4.5% of 10,000 dollars which equals 0.045 × 10,000 = 450 dollars a year. As the years pass, more and more will be put into the account due to interest.
Step 2; For there to be 13,500 dollars in the bank account we need to calculate how much money is added due to interest.
The money needed to be added through interest = 13,500 - 10,000 = 3,500 dollars.
So we need to determine how long it will take for the bank to add 3,500 dollars by adding 450 dollars a year.
The number of years to reach 13,500 dollars = = 7.777 years. By rounding this value to the nearest tenth, we get 7.8 years.
