Answer:

The meaning of the y-intercept in this function is the start height and each second its getting smaller.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the reason the 0.25 is negative, because it is being subtracted by the previous height.

The tallest building in Africa is the Carlton Centre in Johannesburg, South Africa. What is the distance from the top of this 73
Contact [7]

Answer:

b = 33 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The illustration forms a right angled triangle. The opposite side of the triangle is where we are looking for . The adjacent side is the radius 4000 miles.

5280 ft = 1 mile

735 ft = ? miles

cross multiply

735/5280

miles = 0.13920454545  miles

The hypotenuse side is the height of the building + 4000 miles = 0.140 + 4000 = 4000.14  miles

using Pythagoras theorem

c² = a² + b²

c = 4000.14

a = 4000

4000.14² = 4000² + b²

b² = 4000.14² - 4000²

b² = 16001120.0196  - 16000000

b² = 1120.0196

b = √1120.0196

b = 33.4666938911

b = 33 miles

Jaina and Tomas compare their compound interest accounts to see how much they will have in the accounts after three years. They
MariettaO [177]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

Jaina and Tomas compare their compound interest accounts to see how much they will have in the accounts after three years. They substitute their values shown below into the compound interest formula. Compound Interest Accounts Name Principal Interest Rate Number of Years Compounded Jaina $300 7% 3 Once a year Tomas $400 4% 3 Once a year. Which pair of equations would correctly calculate their compound interests?

Solution :

It is given that Jaina and Tomas wants to open an account by depositing a principal amount for a period of 3 years and wanted to calculate the amount they will have using the compound interest formula.

<u>So for Jiana</u> :

Principal, P = $300

Rate of interest, r = 7%

Time, t = 3

Compounded yearly

Therefore, using compound interest formula, we get

$A=P\left(1+\frac{r}{100}\right)^{t}$

   $=300\left(1+\frac{7}{100}\right)^{3}$

   $=300(1+0.07)^3$

<u>Now for Tomas </u>:

Principal, P = $400

Rate of interest, r = 4%

Time, t = 3

Compounded yearly

Therefore, using compound interest formula, we get

$A=P\left(1+\frac{r}{100}\right)^{t}$

   $=400\left(1+\frac{4}{100}\right)^{3}$

   $=400(1+0.04)^3$

Therefore, the pair of equations that would correctly calculate the compound interests for Jaina is $A=300(1+0.07)^3$ .

And the pair of equations that would correctly calculate the compound interests for Tomas is $A=400(1+0.04)^3$ .
