This problem can be modeled by the picture shown below. We notice that we are given to side lengths, specifically legs, of the triangle. Therefore, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem, which states that a^2+b^2=c^2, where a and b are legs and c is the hypotenuse. So we can do:

16^2+12^2=c^2
256+144=c^2
400=c^2

The square root of 400 is 20, which is our hypotenuse.

(You might wonder why we used 12, that is because the whole base length is 24, but we only need half of the base to  use the Pythagorean Theorem. 24/2 is 12).

:)

Parents wish to have $130,000 available for a child's education. If the child is now 6 years old, how much money must be set asi
n200080 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

FV = $130,000

r = 4% (semiannually )

We need to find number of periods (n) , the child is now 6 years old, until the child is 18 is 12 years. But it is the rate is compounded semiannually, so n = 12*2 = 24

We have the fomula to find out periodic payment (see the attached photo)

=> pmt = 3326.288
