Step-by-step answer:
The base of the exponential function is 1.29 for 7 days, as in
f(x) = 86*(1.29)^x
The new rate for days can be calculated by dividing x by 7 (where x remains the number of weeks), namely
f(x) = 86*1.29^(x/7)
Using the law of exponents, b^(x/a) = b^(x*(1/a)) = (b^(1/a))^x
we simplify by putting b=1.29, a=7 to get
f(x) = 86*(1.29^(1/7))^x
f(x) = 86*(1.037)^x since 1.29^(1/7) evaluates to 1.037
Rounding 1.037 to 1.04 we get a (VERY) approximate function
f(x) = 86 * (1.04^x)
1.04 is very approximate because 1.04^7 is supposed to get back 1.29, but it is actually 1.316, while 1.037^7 gives 1.2896, much closer to 1.29.
Being able to do this problem hinges mainly on your knowing the definitions of the trig functions and being able to read side lengths from the given diagram.
csc theta = hypotenuse / opp side = 4 / √(4^2 + 5^2) = 4 / √41.
sin theta is the reciprocal of csc theta, or √41 / 4.
cot theta is adj side / opp side = 5/4.

Find length AC
The question is not detailed enough; so, I'll assume that b represents line AC.
Having said that;
We start by multiplying both sides by b
Divide both sides by tan(55)
Find tan(55)

Length AC is 10.5
M = Tim's dollar amount
R = Rebecca's dollar amount
MR = Tim and Rebecca's dollars together
R = (M x 1/10) - 6
MR = M + ((M x 1/10) - 6)
MR = 70 + ((70 x 1/10) - 6)
MR = 70 + (7 - 6)
MR = 70 + 1
MR = 71
