For this case we have that by definition, the equation of the line of the slope-intersection form is given by:

Where:
m: It is the slope of the line
b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis
By definition, if two lines are perpendicular then the product of their slopes is -1.
We have the following equation of the line:

Then 
We find 

Thus, the perpendicular line will be of the form:

We substitute the given point and find "b":


Finally, the equation is of the form:

ANswer:

Apply simple interest formula
future value = present value (1+n*rate)
n=number of years
rate = annual interest rate in decimal
Plug in values,
10000=3900(1+0.0783*t)
1+0.0783t=10000/3900
t=(10000/3900-1)/0.0783
=19.98 years.
With compound interest, future value=present value (1+rate/n)^(nt)
n=1,rate=0.0783, future value=10000, present value=3900,
t=log(10000/3900)/log(1.0783)=12.49 years.
Answer:
34.6 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Radius is the hypotenuse
Distance is the perpendicular
sin(0.5) = distance/radius
sin(0.5) = distance/3963.2
Distance = 34.58500549 miles
