Answer:

105.46 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We know all three angles (60, 90, and 30), as well as one side, which is adjacent to the 60 degrees. We want to find the side opposite to the 60 degree angle. To do this, we can use tangent, utilizing both opposite and adjacent.

Using tan, we can say that tan(60) = x/58, with x representing the height of the lighthouse (minus 5, because Santos is 5 feet tall and he is measuring the angle from the top of his head). Multiplying both sides by 58, we can get that 58 *tan(60) = x = 100.46. Add 5 to that to get 105.46 feet as your answer.

Answer:

The value of the account in the year 2009 will be $682.

Step-by-step explanation:

The acount's balance, in t years after 1999, can be modeled by the following equation.

A(t) = Pe^{rt}

In which A(t) is the amount after t years, P is the initial money deposited, and r is the rate of interest.

$330 in an account in the year 1999

This means that P = 330

$590 in the year 2007

2007 is 8 years after 1999, so P(8) = 590.

We use this to find r.

A(t) = Pe^{rt}

590 = 330e^{8r}

e^{8r} = \frac{590}{330}

e^{8r} = 1.79

Applying ln to both sides:

\ln{e^{8r}} = \ln{1.79}

8r = \ln{1.79}

r = \frac{\ln{1.79}}{8}

r = 0.0726

Determine the value of the account, to the nearest dollar, in the year 2009.

2009 is 10 years after 1999, so this is A(10).

A(t) = 330e^{0.0726t}

A(10) = 330e^{0.0726*10} = 682

The value of the account in the year 2009 will be $682.
