Answer:
N1,052,800.
Step-by-step explanation:
The starting salary of the officer = N57,000
Increase per annum =N2,800
The given pattern forms an arithmetic sequence since the annual salary increases by a fixed amount.
We are to determine the total amount of money that the officer will earn in 14 years.
Sum of an arithmetic sequence,
At the end of 14 years, the total amount earned by the officer will be N1,052,800.
Answer: The central angle measures 135 degrees
Step-by-step explanation: We have been given an arc with length 9pi/2 feet and a radius of 6 feet. The arc is shown in the attached diagram (please see attachment). The central angle subtended by this arc is at point O and has been labeled angle X.
So if the diagram shows arc AB with length 9pi/2 and radius AO with length 6, we can use the formula to compute “Length of an arc” to arrive at the missing angle.
Length of an arc = X/360 x 2pi x radius
Substituting for the known values, our formula can now be re-written as
9pi/2 = X/360 x 2pi x6
By cross multiplication we now have
9pi/2pi x 6 = 2X/360
We simplify as much as possible by dividing all like terms, hence pi divides pi on the left side of the equation. Also 2 divides 360 on the right side of the equation.We now arrive at,
9/12 = X/180
Simplify even further and we have
3/4 = X/180
By cross multiplication we now have
(3 x 180)/4 = X
540/4 = X
135 = X
Therefore the central angle that intercepts the arc measures 135 degrees.
