Answer: 12.37ft

<h2 />

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the missing side of a triangle is a^2 + b^2 = c^2

so all you have to do is put 3 and 12

3^2 + 12^2 = c^2

9 + 144 = c^2

153 = c^2

√153 = 12.37

7. A man makes a simple discount note for $6,200, at an ordinary bank discount rate of 8.84%, for 40 days. What is the effective

Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

The effective interest rate, rounded to the nearest tenth, is 0.1%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The banker's rule is the simple interest formula.

The simple interest formula is given by:

$E = P*I*t$

In which E are the earnings, P is the principal(the initial amount of money), I is the interest rate(yearly) and t is the time, in years.

The effective interest rate is given by the following formula:

$E_{IR} = \frac{E}{P}$ .

In this problem, we have that:

A man makes a simple discount note for $6,200, at an ordinary bank discount rate of 8.84%, for 40 days. We consider that the year has 360 days. This means that $P = 6200, I = 0.0884, t = \frac{40}{360} = \frac{1}{9}$ .

So

$E = 6200*0.0884*\frac{1}{9} = 60.9$

The effective interest rate is

$E_{IR} = \frac{E}{P} = \frac{60.9}{6200} = 0.0098 = 0.001$

The effective interest rate, rounded to the nearest tenth, is 0.1%.

Find the equation of the linear function 'g' going through (20,5) and (-5,-8). Use 'u' for your input variable.

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Use the slope-intercept form, which will be in this case:</u>

g(u) = mu + b, where m is the slope, b is the y- intercept

<u>Find the slope:</u>

$m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)$
$m=(-8-5)/(-5-20)=(-13)/(-25)=13/25$

<u>Find the value of the y-intercept:</u>

$5=1/25*20+b$
$b=5-4/5=21/5$

<u>The equation is:</u>

$g(u)=\frac{13}{25} u+\frac{21}{5}$
