Answer:
a. The initial amount of money that was left in this savings account was of 5000.
b. Decrease of 2% each year.
Step-by-step explanation:
Exponential function:
An exponential function, with an initial value of A(0), and a decay rate of r, as a decimal, is given by:
In this question, we have:
a. What was the initial amount of money that was left in this savings account?
This is y(0) = 5000
The initial amount of money that was left in this savings account was of 5000.
b. What is the percent of change each year in this savings account?
First as a decimal.
1 - r = 0.98
r = 1 - 0.98
r = 0.02
So a decrease of 2% each year.
Equilateral
equi means equal
lateral means sides
all sides are equal
triangle has 3 sides
perimiter=side1+side2+side3
side1=side2=side3
area=1/2 times base times height
base=side
draw a line down the middle of te tiangle so you get 2 right triangles side by side
1/2base is one leg
base is hypotonuse
height is unknown
equilateral means that it is a 30-60-90 triangle with hypotonuse equal to 2x, height=x√3, bottom is x
1/2 times base times height=1959
1/2 times x times x√3=1959
multiply both sides by 2
(x^2)√3=3918
divide both sides by √3
x^2=3918/√3
square root both sides
x=47.5611
side=hypotonuse=2x
2x=2*47.5611
side=95.12222
legnth of each side is
cm or about 95.12222 cm
