Complete Question

The length of the guy wire supporting a cell tower is 120 m. The guy wire is anchored to the ground at a distance of 80 m from the base of the tower to the nearest hundredth of a meter how tall is the tower?

Answer:

89.44m

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve this question using the Pythagoras Theorem

This is given as:

Hypotenuse² = Opposite ² + Adjacent ²

Hypotenuse = Length of the guy wire = 120m

Adjacent = Distance from the base of the tower = 80m

Opposite = Height of the building = x

Hence:

120² = x² + 80²

Collect like terms

x² = 120² - 80²

x = √120² - 80²

x = √(8000)

x = 89.4427191 m

Approximately the height of the tower is = 89.44m

2) Lucy spent $15, 500 to purchase a new car this year. Lucy can expect her car to depreciate at a rate of 7% per year.
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

<u>Equation: V = C * (1 - r)^t</u>

<u>Answer: $ 8,066.37</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's recall that depreciation on a car can be determined by the formula:

V = C * (1 - r)^t , where:

V is the value of the car after t years,

C is the original cost

r is the rate of depreciation

t is the number of years of utilization of the car

Therefore, we have:

V = C * (1-r)^t

V = 15,500 * (1 - 0.07)⁹

V = 8,066.37 (rounding to the next cent)
