Answer:
7 years 11 months
Step-by-step explanation:
The future value formula for the value of a principal P invested at annual rate r compounded n times yearly for t years is ...
FV = P(1 +r/n)^(nt)
For the given numbers, we want to find t:
6000 = 3700(1 +.062/2)^(2t)
Dividing by 3700 and taking the logarithm, we get ...
6000/3700 = 1.031^(2t)
log(60/37) = 2t·log(1.031)
Dividing by the coefficient of t gives ...
t = log(60/37)/(2log(1.031)) ≈ 7.92 . . . . . years
It will take about 7 years 11 months for the investment to grow to $6000.
Answer:
B. 39.59
Step-by-step explanation:
So 43 degrees, you know the length of the opposite side (27) and the angle (43 degrees), the only unknown is the hypotenuse. So you're looking for a trigonometric ratio that uses the angle (all of them do, except technically the inverse don't), the opposite side, and the hypotenuse. Sine is defined as 
. So let's plug in known values:
Multiply both sides by x
divide both sides by sin(43)
Normally I would use a calculator, but in this case I'll use the approximation given in the problem of 0.682
simplify the fraction
Answer:
The length of the rectangle is 37 yards, and the width of the rectangle is 17 yards.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the length of a rectangle is 3 yards more than twice the width, and the area of the rectangle is 54 yards, the following calculation must be performed to find the dimensions of the rectangle, knowing that the area of a rectangle arises from multiplying its base by its height:
2X + 3 + X = 54
3X + 3 = 54
3X = 54 - 3
X = 51/3
X = 17
(17 x 2) + 3 = 37
Therefore, the length of the rectangle is 37 yards, and the width of the rectangle is 17 yards.
