Sally paints at a rate of 1/7th room / hour

Steve paints at a rate of 1/6th room / hour

If they both painted together, they would paint 1/7 + 1/6 = 13/42 room/hour

so to paint the whole room, it would take 1/(13/42) = 42/13 =
<u>
3.23 hours (3 significant figures)</u>

Karen invested $2,000 in a special savings account.
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

D. $512,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Well if the balance doubles every 5 years, then dividing 40 by 5 gives us the number of times the money will double, which is 8. We can then turn this into the equation 2000(2^{8}). 2^8 can be simplified to 256. Multiply that by 2000 and we get our answer, 512000. Hope this helps!

A person is watching a boat from the top of a lighthouse. The boat is approaching the lighthouse directly. When first noticed, t
7nadin3 [17]

To solve this problem, we can use the tan function to find for the distances covered.

tan θ = o / a

Where,

θ = angle = 90° - angle of depression

o = side opposite to the angle = distance of boat from lighthouse

a = side adjacent to the angle = height of lighthouse = 200 ft

When the angle of depression is 16°18', the initial distance from the lighthouse is:

o = 200 tan (90° - 16°18')

o = 683.95 ft

When the angle of depression is 48°51', the final distance from the lighthouse is:

o = 200 tan (90° - 48°51')

o = 174.78 ft

 

Therefore the total distance the boat travelled is:

d = 683.95 ft - 174.78 ft

<span>d = 509.17 ft</span>
