I'll do problem 1 to get you started.

The answer to problem 1 is <u>3400 miles</u>

============================================================

Explanation for problem 1:

We're asked to find the perimeter, which is the total distance around the exterior or outside. In other words, we need to add up the four side lengths of this quadrilateral.

We'll need the distance formula to find the lengths of the slanted sides AB and BC

----------------------------------------

Let's first find the length of segment AB

A = (x1,y1) = (0,0)

B = (x2,y2) = (400,300)

d = Length of AB

d = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(0-400)^2 + (0-300)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(-400)^2 + (-300)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{160000 + 90000}\\\\d = \sqrt{250000}\\\\d = 500\\\\

The distance from A to B is 500 miles. This is the same as saying segment AB is 500 miles long.

----------------------------------------

Now find the length of segment BC

B = (x1,y1) = (400,300)

C = (x2,y2) = (-800,800)

d = length of BC

d = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(400-(-800))^2 + (300-800)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(400+800)^2 + (300-800)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(1200)^2 + (-500)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{1440000 + 250000}\\\\d = \sqrt{1690000}\\\\d = 1300\\\\

----------------------------------------

The length of CD is fairly easy to find without needing the distance formula. This is because it is a vertical line. We subtract the y coordinates of C and D to get 800-0 = 800. So CD is 800 miles long.

Segment DA is a similar story. But we subtract the x coordinates. This only works for horizontal lines. DA is 800 miles long because |-800-0| = 800. Absolute value is used to make sure the distance is never negative.

----------------------------------------

To summarize everything so far, we found these four side lengths

  • AB = 500
  • BC = 1300
  • CD = 800
  • DA = 800

The perimeter is going to be the sum of those four sides, leading to...

perimeter = sum of sides

perimeter = AB+BC+CD+DA

perimeter = 500+1300+800+800

perimeter = 3400 miles

This is the total distance traveled if you started at city A, went to B, then to C, then to D, and then finally went back to A.

Answer:

The total distance is 3400 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following points:

​A(0,0)

B(400,300)

C(−800,800)

D(−800,0)

​

we can find the distance between each of them using the following equation:

d(X,Y)=

√(x2

−x1

)2

+(y2

−y1

)

2

in this case, we only need to find the distance from A to B and from B to C:

​d(A,B)=

√(400−0)2

+(300−0)2

=

√160000+90000

=

√250000

=500

d(B,C)=

√(−800−400)2

+(800−300)2

=

√1440000+250000

=

√1690000

=1300

​

next, notice that the distance from C to D and from D to A are on lines parallel to the x-axis and the y-axis, then, we can see that the distances are the follwing:

​d(C,D)=800

d(D,A)=800

​

then, the total distance traveled will be the perimeter of the polygon, Thus, adding the distances we have:

​P=d(A,B)+d(B,C)+d(C,D)+d(D,A)=500+1300+800+800

=3400

⇒P=3400miles

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

15000(1.003425)^12t ;

4.11%

4.188%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Loan amount = principal = $15000

Interest rate, r = 4.11% = 0.0411

n = number of times compounded per period, monthly = 12 (number of months in a year)

Total amount, F owed, after t years in college ;

F(t) = P(1 + r/n)^nt

F(t) = 15000(1 + 0.0411/12)^12t

F(t) = 15000(1.003425)^12t

2.) The annual percentage rate is the interest rate without compounding = 4.11%

3.)

The APY

APY = (1 + APR/n)^n - 1

APY = (1 + 0.0411/12)^12 - 1

APY = (1.003425)^12 - 1

APY = 1.04188 - 1

APY = 0.04188

APY = 0.04188 * 100% = 4.188%
