The original number is 3.
I actually began with the guess-and-check method, but seeing as that won't always work, let's go over the formal way. To get the original number, you first need to determine how many times the number was squared.
To make it simple, let's use x to focus on the exponents. The number was squared 3 times, so x^2, x^2, x^2. Basically, you need to multiply. 2 * 2 * 2 = 8. So, now find the 8th root of 6561 (depending on the calculator, you can just input it). You should come up with 3. Let me know if this part confuses you.
To find the next 2 numbers, you just need to continue the pattern.
6561^2 = 43,046,721
43,046,721^2 = 1,853,020,188,851,841
To my knowledge, which means this could be wrong, they're both perfect squares. Since the number to get them both were whole numbers, they should both have a square root that equals a whole number.
This would be an exponential function.
Exponential functions are of the form
y = a*bˣ, where a is the initial value, b is the rate the function changes by, and x is the time period. Since this triples, b would be 3.
The amount to be invested today so as to have $12,500 in 12 years is $6,480.37.
The amount that would be in my account in 13 years is $44,707.37.
The amount I need to deposit now is $546.64.
<h3>How much should be invested today?</h3>
The amount to be invested today = future value / (1 + r)^nm
Where:
- r = interest rate = 5.5 / 365 = 0.015%
- m = number of compounding = 365
- n = number of years = 12
12500 / (1.00015)^(12 x 365) = $6,480.37
<h3>What is the future value of the account at the end of 13 years?</h3>
Future value = monthly deposits x annuity factor
Annuity factor = {[(1+r)^n] - 1} / r
Where:
- r = interest rate = 5.3 / 12 = 0.44%
- n = 13 x 12 = 156
200 x [{(1.0044^156) - 1} / 0.0044] = $44,707.37
<h3>What should be the monthly deposit?</h3>
Monthly deposit = future value / annuity factor
Annuity factor = {[(1+r)^n] - 1} / r
Where:
- r = 6.7 / 12 = 0.56%
- n = 2 x 12 = 24
$14,000 / [{(1.0056^24) - 1} / 0.0056] = $546.64

Elena is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
This is because a straight angle is always equal to 180 therefore in order to find the value of *w* you would have to add up to angles that are given and subtract them from 180, or in this case add up all the angles including *w* to get 180.
