Answer:

  195 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between the horizontal distance, angle, and vertical height is given by ...

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

Referring to the attached diagram, we have ...

  tan(16°) = BT/MB

  tan(25°) = BK/MB

Solving for BT and BK, we can describe their difference as ...

  BT = MB·tan(16°)

  BK = MB·tan(25°)

  BK -BT = 35 = MB(tan(25°) -tan(16°))

Dividing by the coefficient of MB gives ...

  MB = 35/(tan(25°) -tan(16°)) = 35/0.179562

  MB = 195 . . . feet

Marcos is standing 195 feet from the base of the tree.

Jane is having difficulty deciding whether to put her savings in the Mystic Bank or in the Four Rivers Bank. Mystic offers a 12%
Ad libitum [116K]
The answer to this question would be <span>B. Mystic
</span><span>

Since the rate should be constant, option C and D wouldn't be true.</span>
If the Four Rivers bank gives 12% per year and Mystic Bank gives 14% per year, it will be 3% per quarter year for Four Rivers Bank and 7% semiannually for Mystic Bank. 
The total rate would become:
Four rivers 103%^4= 1.125
Mystic : 107%^2= 1.145
