Answer:

10.2 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

a^{2} +b^{2} = c^{2} \\8^{2} +b^{2} =13^{2} \\

64 + b^{2} = 169

b^{2} = 105\\

b=\sqrt{105}

b= 10.2469

This is a compound interest problem, therefore s(t) should be in the form:
s(t) = a(r)^{t}

where: 
t = time in years
s(t) = the value of your item after t years
a = the initial value of your item
r = rate

Therefore, we already know that a = 245$.

Now, we can calculate r:
r^{t}=\frac{s}{a}
r =  \sqrt[t]{ \frac{s}{a} }
r = \sqrt[5]{ \frac{560.50}{245} }
     = 1.18

Therefore, the correct answers are a = 245 and r = 1.18

Solve 3x2 + 4x = 2. TEACH me how to solve this.. I know what to do once I have it in the right forum... but I do not understand
sertanlavr [38]
So if it is 3x^2+4x=2 then
set one side to zero
subtract 2 from both sides
3x^2+4x-2=0
this is not factorable by normal means so use quadratic formula which is if you have the equation in ax^2+bx+c=0 form you can solve for x if you put it into this equation quadratic formula x=\frac{-b+ \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a} or  \frac{-b- \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a} so if you were to input it into this equation you would get
a=3
b=4
c=-2

the solution is x= \frac{-2+ \sqrt{10} }{3} or \frac{-2- \sqrt{10} }{3}
the answer is  C
