Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Each successive year, he
earned a 5% raise. It means that the salary is increasing in geometric progression. The formula for determining the nth term of a geometric progression is expressed as
Tn = ar^(n - 1)
Where
a represents the first term of the sequence(amount earned in the first year).
r represents the common ratio.
n represents the number of terms(years).
From the information given,
a = $32,000
r = 1 + 5/100 = 1.05
n = 20 years
The amount earned in his 20th year, T20 is
T20 = 32000 × 1.05^(20 - 1)
T20 = 32000 × 1.05^(19)
T20 = $80862.4
To determine the his total
earnings over the 20-year period, we would apply the formula for determining the sum of n terms, Sn of a geometric sequence which is expressed as
Sn = (ar^n - 1)/(r - 1)
Therefore, the sum of the first 20 terms, S20 is
S20 = (32000 × 1.05^(20) - 1)/1.05 - 1
S20 = (32000 × 1.653)/0.05
S20 = $1057920
16% of 231 is 36.80
16% + 84% = 100%
36.80+ 231 = $267.80
Ans = $267.80
The area of the base is:
A = root ((s-a) * (s-b) * (s-c) * (s))
Where,
a, b, c: sides of the triangle
s = (a + b + c) / 2
We have then:
s = (9 + 9 + 9) / 2
s = 13.5
A = root ((13.5-9) * (13.5-9) * (13.5-9) * (13.5))
A = 35.07
Then, the surface area of the prism is:
S.A = 2 * A + 9h + 9h + 9h
Where,
h: height of the prism:
Substituting values:
421.2 = 2 * (35.07) + 9h + 9h + 9h
Clearing h:
27h = (421.2 - 2 * (35.07))
h = (421.2 - 2 * (35.07)) / (27)
h = 13
Answer:
the height of the box is:
h = 13 inches
Answer:
6 stand for 600(six hundred).
