[x = amount earning 6% annually.]
(8000-x) = amount earning 15% annually
Then we set up our equation which is a sum of the 15% return and the 6% return and we let that sum equal our desired return on investment ($930). Then solve for x.
(8000-x)*.15 + x*.06 = 930
1200 - .15x + .06x = 930
.09x = 270
x = 3000.
Therefore, you should invest $3000 at 6% and $5000 at 15% to earn $930 annually.

Two ladders are leaning against a building, forming two similar triangles as shown below. The top of the longer ladder is 28 fee
postnew [5]

Answer:

The length of the longer ladder is 35 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Please check the attachment for a diagrammatic representation of the problem

We want to calculate the length of the longer ladder ;

We make reference to the diagram

Since the two right triangles formed are similar. the ratios of their sides are equal;

Thus;

20/15 = 28/x + 15

20(x + 15) = 15(28)

20x + 300 = 420

20x = 420-300

20x = 120

x = 120/20

x = 6

So we want to calculate the hypotenuse of a right triangle with other sides 28ft and 21 ft

To do this, we use the Pythagoras’ theorem which states that square of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares of the two other sides

Let the hypotenuse be marked x

x^2 = 28^2 + 21^2

x^2 = 1,225

x = √1225

x = 35 ft
