If a store credit account charges 1.5% interest each month, what is the APR?

If the monthly interest is 1.5%, then the APR is

100 [ (1.015)¹² - 1 ] = <u>19.56 %</u>

You might think that it would be (12 x 1.5) = 18% , but it's not.

The interest is compounded.  That means interest is added this month,
and then it becomes part of the amount on which interest is charged
next month.

So you're charged interest on interest, and it adds up.

The APR is the annual percentage rate
therefore the APR is 1.5x12=18%

A 15-foot ladder leans against a house. The bottom of the ladder is 7 feet from the house. To the nearest degree, what angle doe
max2010maxim [7]
The ladder is forming a right triangle with the house. In this right triangle the hypotenuse is the measure of the ladder, and the distance between the house and he ladder is one of the sides of the triangle. To find the angle, \alpha, that the ladder is making with the ground, we are going to use a trig function that relates the adjacent side of our angle with the hypotenuse. That trig function is Cosine. 
Cos \alpha = \frac{adjacent.side}{hypotenuse}
Cos \alpha = \frac{7}{15}
\alpha =arcCos( \frac{7}{15} )
\alpha =62.2

We can conclude that the ladder make with the ground a 62° angle.
