Find y using Pythagorean theorem or proportion

Mathematics
1 answer:
Tcecarenko [31]3 years ago
4 0

We have three similar triangles, let's see if we can get this right, right vertex first, then other vertex from small side:

EDF ~ GDE ~ GEF

As ratios that means

ED:DF:EF = GD:DE:GE = GE:EF:GF

x:20:y = 5:x:GE = GE:y:15

Since we're after y we choose

20/y = y/15

20(15) = y²

y² = 300

y = 10√3

y ≈ 17.32

An initial deposit of $7,000 earns 6.5% interest, compounded monthly. How
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

$34,300

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find how much interest is earned in one month : 7,000 * 6.5% = 455

455 is how much you gain monthly, multiply that by 12 to find the annual interest so 455 * 12 = 5,460

You then multiply that number by 5 to find the interest of the span of the 5 years

5,460 * 5 = 27,300

You add the original number to the interest with 27,300 + 7,000 = 34,300 in the account
