Given Information:

Principle amount = P = $6,000

Interest rate = r = 4% = 0.04

Period in years = t = 5

Required Information:

How much interest will he earn in 5 years = ?

Answer:

Amount of interest = $1,299.92

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula given in the question,

$B = P(1 + r )^{t}$

Where B is the final amount, P is the initial amount, r is the interest rate and t is the number of years

$B = P(1 + r )^{t}\\\\B = 6,000(1 + 0.04)^{5}\\\\B = 7,299.92$

The amount of interest earned is

$Amount \:of\: interest = B - P \\\\Amount \:of \:interest = 7,299.92 - 6,000\\\\Amount \:of \:interest = 1,299.92$

Therefore, Quincy has earned $1,299.92 in terms of interest by investing $6,000 in a savings account at the rate of 4% annual interest for a period of 5 years.

Solve the system of equations graphicallySolution=?

BigorU [14]

The given system is

$\begin{cases}y=\frac{5}{2}x-8 \\ y=-\frac{1}{2}x-2\end{cases}$

Given that y = y, let's combine the equations

$\frac{5}{2}x-8=-\frac{1}{2}x-2$

Let's solve for x

$\begin{gathered} \frac{5}{2}x+\frac{1}{2}x=8-2 \\ \frac{6}{2}x=6 \\ 3x=6 \\ x=\frac{6}{3} \\ x=2 \end{gathered}$

Then, we find y

$y=-\frac{1}{2}x-2=-\frac{1}{2}\cdot2-2=-1-2=-3$

The solution is (2, -3).

The image below shows the solution graphically.

Answer: $\triangle XYZ \sim \triangle GFH$ by AA.

Step-by-step explanation:

Finding the third angle in triangle XYZ,

$m\angle YXZ=180^{\circ}-77^{\circ}-48^{\circ}=55^{\circ}$ ,

Thus, $\triangle XYZ \sim \triangle GFH$ by AA.

dangina [55]

Let x represent the length of the shorter leg.

Longer leg: 5x +19
Hypotenuse: 5x +20

Pythagorean theorem:
.. x^2 +(5x +19)^2 = (5x +20)^2
.. x^2 +25x^2 +190x +19^2 = 25x^2 +200x +20^2 . . . . . . eliminate parentheses
.. x^2 -10x -39 = 0
.. (x -13)(x +3) = 0
.. x = 13 . . . . . . . . . . leg lengths must be positive

The side length of the triangle are 13, 84, 85 feet.
