Answer:The simple interest rate is 7.50%

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple interest, I =( P × T × R) / 100

Where P= Principal investment

T = Time in years

R = rate

Given

P= 981.60

I = 1000 - 981.60 = 18 .40

T = 13 weeks = 13 / 52 = 0.25 year

I =( P × T × R) / 100

Cross multiply

I × 100 = P × T × R

18.40 × 100 = 981.60 × 0.25 × R

1840 = 245.4 R

R= 1840 / 245.4

R = 7.498%

To the nearest tenth

R = 7.50%

The Hawks are starting a babysitting business. They charge an initial deposit of $20
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation: So first you have to make this word problem into a equation into standard form so 20 is our (y) because that is the additional charge but our slope is 3 because that is what they charge per hr **when they say (per) usually the member with it is the slope** (sry I’m not the best explainer)

SOVing Problems With Right Triangles: Mastery Test
Serhud [2]

Answer:

13.86 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be represented by a right angled triangle with a hypotenuse of 16 feet and an angle of 60° between the hypotenuse side and the adjacent side.

The height of the pole is the side opposite to the angle 60°.

The trigonometric function states that for a right angled triangle:

sinθ = opposite / hypotenuse, cosθ = adjacent / hypotenuse, tanθ = opposite/ adjacent

To find the height of the flagpole, we use:

sin(60) = height / 16

height = 16 * sin(60)

height = 13.86 ft

The person with the incorrect reasoning for the height of the flagpole is  Charlie when he should have utilized the  sin function. Because he incorrectly selected the  function.
