Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangle is right use Pythagoras' identity to solve for x
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides, thus
x² + 6² = 10²
x² + 36 = 100 ( subtract 36 from both sides )
x² = 64 ( take the square root of both sides )
x = 
= 8
I think the answer is stage left because if you flip your view point, you'll get stage left.
Hopefully that helped! :)
I = p * r * n
i is the interest
p is the principal
r is the interest rate per time period
n is the number of time periods.
in your problem:
i = 900
p = 2000
r = what you want to find
n = 3 years
formula becomes 900 = 2000 * r * 3
solve for r to get r = 900 / 2000 / 3 = .15
that's .15 interest rate per year = 15% per year.
at a nominal interest rate of .15 per year, the interest rate per month would be .15/12 = .0125 per month.
the remaining balance at the end of 6 month is equal to 1907.140183
