Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A = P[1 + (r/n)]^(nt)

Look the formula up online to find out what each variable represents if needed.

We are solving for P, which is the principal amount 5 years back.

Substitute 11,000 for A (total amount), 4.5% for r(rate), 2 for n(number of times -- in this case, semiannually), and 5 for t(time -- 5 years).

11000 = P[1+(0.045/2)]^(2x5)

11000 = P (1.0225)^10

11000 = P (1.2492)   approx.

Divide both sides by 1.2492 to find P.

P = $8805.64  (approx)

I know that the answer I got is not an option listed. However, I feel that my workings may help other people to answer this question or give them inspiration to answer similar questions. Therefore, I will leave this answer up.

Thanks, and sorry I couldn't do much.

Angle A and angle B are complementary angles. If m∡a = 4x and m∡b = 3x +13, what is the measure of the smaller angle?
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles mean two two angles sum with equal 90 degrees. Therefore you would need to create an equation to solve for the value of x.

4x+3x+13=90

-13 -13

7x=77

/7 /7

X=11

Now plug in the value of x.

A=4(11) B=3(11)+13

A=44. B=33+13

B=46

Angle a is the smaller angle and measures at 44°
