Answer:

9\sqrt{2} feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the attached figure.

An isosceles triangle is a triangle in which two sides are equal.

AB=BC=9 feet

According to Pythagoras theorem,

square of hypotenuse is equal to sum of squares of other two sides.

AC^2=AB^2+BC^2\\AC^2=9^2+9^2\\AC^2=81+81\\AC^2=162\\AC=\sqrt{162}

AC=9\sqrt{2} feet

the table shows the balance of a money market account over time. write a function that represents the balancr y (in dollars) aft
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

y = 1500 * 1.09^t

Step-by-step explanation:

It should be clear that the rate of change is non-linear, meaning that we can express the function in the following manner

y = a * b^t, where a is the initial value and b is the rate of change and t is how many years.

Well, year 0 is the rate of change so we can say that a = 1500

Next, we divide any two consecutive year balances to find our rate of change:

1635/1500 = 1.09

Therefore, our equation looks like this: y = 1500 * 1.09^t
