A 30 60 90 triangle has its shorter side equal to one half the hypotenuse.
So, if hypotenuse = 11 cm then shorter side = 5.5.

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer: Option A: 8.04% compounded daily

Step-by-step explanation:

$A = P\bigg(1+\dfrac{r}{n}\bigg)^{nt}\qquad where\\\\\bullet A = \text{accrued amount (principal plus interest earned)}\\\bullet P = \text{principal (amount invested)}\\\bullet r = \text{rate (in decimal form)}\\\bullet n=\text{number of times compounded in one year}\\\bullet t=\text{time (number of years)}\\\\\\Option\ A:\\A = \text{unknown}\\P=3000\\r=8.04\%\rightarrow 0.0804\\n=\text{daily}\rightarrow 365\\t=10\\\\A=3000\bigg(1+\dfrac{0.0804}{365}\bigg)^{365\times 10}\\\\.\ =\$ 6,702.79$

$Option\ B:\\A = \text{unknown}\\P=3000\\r=8.1\%\rightarrow 0.081\\n=\text{quarterly}\rightarrow 4\\t=10\\\\A=3000\bigg(1+\dfrac{0.081}{4}\bigg)^{4\times 10}\\\\.\ =\$ 6,689.37$

Option A results in the greater amount of money.

National Income (NI) is the sum of the incomes that all individuals in an economy earn in the forms of wages,

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

\simeq 14.94 billion dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

During the period 1994 - 2004, the 'National Income' ,(NI) of Australia grew about 5.2% per year (measured in 2003 U. S, dollars). In 1994 , the NI of Australia was $ 4 billion.

Now,

(2020 - 1994) = 26

Assuming this rate of growth continues, the NI of Australia in the year 2020 (in billion dollars) will be,

$4 \times[\frac{(100 + 5.2)}{100}}]^{26}$
