Answer:
$1783.03
Step-by-step explanation:
Annually compounding interest formula:
PV(1+i)ⁿ
1500(1+.025)⁷
1500(1.025)⁷
1783.028631
which rounds to
1783.03
C - 3 1/12
Get a common denominator
3*3 / 4*3 + 1*4 / 3*4
Simplifies into 9/12 + 4/12
Adds to 13/12.
12 goes into 13 1 time, leaving us with 1 1/12
Add the 1 to the 2 full cups that already existed in the original problem - 3 1/12
Cosα=x/L
L=x/cosα, we are told that the ladder base is 48 ft from the base of the wall and α=39° so:
L=48/cos39 ft
L≈61.76 ft (to nearest hundredth of a foot)
