Answer:

8.7 so either 8 or 9 tenth of a year

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Is it compounded per month? I assume</em>

1. Compound interest formula

FV = PV(1+r/100k)^kn

FV is the future value,

PV is the present value,

n is the number of years,

k is the number of compounding periods per year

r% is the nominal annual rate of interest

2. Plug in numbers

3550 = 2400(1+4.6/100*12)^12*n

71/48 = (6023/6000)^12n

12n = logBase(6023/6000)*(71/48)

n = answer/12

n ≈ 8.70

Please help!!!
Leto [7]

Answer:

 - The scientist can use these two measurements to calculate the distance between the Sun and the shooting star by applying one of the trigonometric functions: Cosine of an angle.

- The scientist can substitute these measurements into cos\alpha=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} and solve for the distance between the Sun and the shooting star (which would be the hypotenuse of the righ triangle).

Step-by-step explanation:

 You can observe in the figure attached that  "AC" is the distance between the Sun and the shooting star.

Knowing the distance between the Earth and the Sun "y" and the angle x°,  the scientist can use only these two measurements to calculate the distance between the Sun and the shooting star by applying one of the trigonometric functions: Cosine of an angle.

 This is:

cos\alpha=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}

In this case:

\alpha=x\°\\\\adjacent=BC=y\\\\hypotenuse=AC

Therefore, the scientist can substitute these measurements into cos\alpha=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} , and solve for the distance between the Sun and the shooting star "AC":

cos(x\°)=\frac{y}{AC}

AC=\frac{y}{cos(x\°)}

Mr. Martin is giving a math test next period. The test, which is worth 100 points, has 29 problems. Each problem is
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

The System of equation is x+y=29, 5x + 2y = 100.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Let 'x' be the number of questions worth 5 points.

Let 'y' be the number of questions worth 2 points

Total Number of Problems = 29

So the Total Number of Problems is equal to sum of the number of questions worth 5 points and the number of questions worth 2 points.

Framing in equation form we get;

x+y=29.

Also Given:

Test is of Total Points = 100

Now Total points in test is equal to sum of the number of questions worth 5 points multiplied by  and the number of questions worth 2 points multiplied by 2.

Framing in equation form we get;

5x+2y=100

Hence The System of Equations are \left \{ {{x+y=29} \atop {5x+2y=100}} \right..
