Answer:
It allows to to know y-intercept formula which is used to graph a line.
Step-by-step explanation:
Y-intercept formula:
y=mx+b
M: slope (keep in fraction if it is fraction, to help you graph)
B: y-interecept
A. Multiply $5000 by .06, and add it back to $5000 to get the total after one year. This is $5300.
B. Multiply the new amount, or $5300 by .06, and add it back to $5300 to get the total after 2 years. This is $5618.
A. $5300
B. $5618

Answer:
(c) 14.5 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The relevant trig relation is ...
Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse
sin(65°) = BC/BA
BC = BA·sin(65°) ≈ (16 cm)·0.9063 ≈ 14.501 cm
BC ≈ 14.5 cm

<em>Additional comment</em>
As is often the case, a simple estimate is all that is needed to identify the correct answer choice.
You only need to know how the long side of a right triangle compares to the others. In an isosceles right triangle, both legs are √2/2 ≈ 0.71 times the hypotenuse. The long side of a right triangle will never be shorter than that. This means the long side must be greater than about 11.2, and cannot be greater than 16. There is only one answer choice in that range.
