I totally understand how they can be frustrating. Try drawing it out as a picture. Draw a straight horizontal line to show where surface of the pool is at. This line is considered to be at 0 meters. Since the swimmer is measured to be 2.3 meters tall with their arms stretched up, and the diving board they are on is 10 meters high, their maximum height is 10m+2.3m which is 12.3m. The depth of the pool, since the surface of the pool is 0m, would be -5.5m (don't forget to always include the unit of measurement, whether it's feet, meters, inches!). Since the diver goes from 12.3m to -5.5m, I would find how far they traveled by writing -5.5m-12.3m=-17.8m; that is, the driver traveled down 17.8 meters.

A principal of $2600is invested at 6.75% interest, compounded annually. How much will the investment be worth after 14 years

dedylja [7]

Answer:

$6488.19

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we use the compounded interest formula:

$amount = principal(1 + (r \n))^({n}{t})$

a = $2600(1+(0.0675/1))¹*¹⁴

a = $6488.19

Baker, Inc. uses the sum-of-the-years’-digits method to depreciate a $79,600.00 piece of equipment that has an estimated life of

Anastasy [175]

The book value at the end of year 2 of the equipment depreciated using the sum-of-the-years’-digits method is $65,560.

<h3>What is the book value at the end of year 2? </h3>

Depreciation is a method used to expense the cost of an asset. Book value is the cost of the asset less the accumulated depreciation.

Sum-of-the-year digits = (remaining useful life / sum of the years ) x (Cost of asset - Salvage value)

Depreciation expense in year 1:

Sum of the years = 1 +2 +3 +4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 10+ 11 + 12 + 13 + 14 + 15 + 16 + 17 + 18 + 19 + 20 = 210

Undepreciated life of the asset = 20

(20 / 210) x ($79,600 - 4,000) = 7200

Depreciation expense in year 2:

19 / 210 x ($79,600 - 4,000) = 6840

Book value = 79600 - 7200 - 6840 = $65,560

The table below represents the displacement of a turtle from its nest as a function of time: Time (hours) x Displacement from ne

andriy [413]

Part A: The y-intercept is 5. If you look to the data, when x=0, y=5. This means that the turtle started off 5 miles away from its nest. (at 0 hours, the distance away from his nest was 5 miles)

Part B:Answer=22. Remember, if you take any two distinct points on a line, the slope of the line will be equal to the average rate of change. In short, we're just looking for the slope between the ordered pairs (1,27) and (4,93). The formula for slope is:

$slope= \frac{y_{2}- y_{1} }{ x_{2} - x_{1} } = \frac{93-27}{4-1}= \frac{66}{3}=22$

The average rate of change between x=1 and x=4 is 22. The average rate of changed describes the rate at which miles is changing with respect the the change in hour.

Part C: Answer=10hours. Since by now we know both the slope and the y-intercept, lets write the equation in slope intercept form and then solve for 225 miles.

y=mx+b
y=22x+5
225=22x+5
subtract 5 from both sides
220=22x
divide both sides by 22
10=x
It would take 10 hours for the turtle to travel 225miles from it's nest.
