Answer:

1. 3(0.96059601^t) = 15; t = -40.03

2. 4.121204(1.01^t) = 8; t = 66.66

Step-by-step explanation:

The applicable rules of exponents are ...

(a^b)^c = a^(bc)

(a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)

The solution for an exponential problem using logarithms is ...

a·b^x = c ⇒ log(c/a)/log(b) = x

_____

1. Rewrite: (3)(0.99^4)^t = 15 ⇒ 3(0.96059601^t) = 15

Solution: t = log(15/3)/log(0.96059601) ≈ -40.03

2. Rewrite: 4(1.01^3)(1.01^t) = 8 ⇒ 4.121204(1.01^t) = 8

Solution: t = log(8/4.121204)/log(1.01) ≈ 66.66

Complete the given diagram by dragging expressions to each leg of the triangle. Then, correctly complete the equation to derive

Nimfa-mama [501]

The equation to derive the distance d is $\sqrt{(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2}$ . The lengths of the other legs of the given triangle are (y2 - y1) and (x2 - x1).

<h3>What is the formula for calculating the distance between two points?</h3>

Consider the two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)

The formula used for calculating the distance between the two points is

distance = $\sqrt{(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2}$

<h3>Calculation:</h3>

Given that,

The triangle in the graph has vertices (x1, y1), (x2, y2), and (x2, y1)

Since this triangle makes 90°, it is a right-angled triangle.

Hypotenuse = (x1, y1) to (x2, y2), Adjacent = (x1, y1) to (x2,y1), and Opposite = (x2, y1) to (x2, y2).

Consider the length of the hypotenuse = d

So, using the distance formula, the length of the hypotenuse(d) is,

$d = \sqrt{(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2}$

And the lengths of the other two legs of the given triangle are,

Length of the adjacent side: (x1, y1) to (x2,y1)

= $\sqrt{(x2-x1)^2+(y1-y1)^2}$

= $\sqrt{(x2-x1)^2+0}$

= $(x2-x1)$

Length of the opposite side: (x2, y1) to (x2, y2)

= $\sqrt{(x2-x2)^2+(y2-y1)^2}$

= $\sqrt{0+(y2-y1)^2}$

= $(y2-y1)$

Therefore, the derived distances for the given triangle are:

$d=\sqrt{(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2}$ , (x2 - x1), and (y2 - y1).
