Compute each option
option A: simple interest
simple interest is easy
A=I+P
A=Final amount
I=interest
P=principal (amount initially put in)
and I=PRT
P=principal
R=rate in decimal
T=time in years
so given
P=15000
R=3.2% or 0.032 in deecimal form
T=10
A=I+P
A=PRT+P
A=(15000)(0.032)(10)+15000
A=4800+15000
A=19800
Simple interst pays $19,800 in 10 years
Option B: compound interest
for interest compounded yearly, the formula is
![A=P(1+r)^t](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=A%3DP%281%2Br%29%5Et)
where A=final amount
P=principal
r=rate in decimal form
t=time in years
given
P=15000
r=4.1% or 0.041
t=10
![A=15000(1+0.041)^{10}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=A%3D15000%281%2B0.041%29%5E%7B10%7D)
![A=15000(1.041)^{10}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=A%3D15000%281.041%29%5E%7B10%7D)
use your calculator
A=22418.0872024
so after 10 years, she will have $22,418.09 in the compounded interest account
in 10 years, the investment in the simple interest account will be worth $19,800 and the investment in the compounded interest account will be worth$22,418.09
10 to the power of 10 would be 10,000,000,000

Hello!</h2>
The answer is:
The correct option is:
D. 40 feet.
<h2>
Why?</h2>
To solve the problem and calculate the width of the river, we need to assume that the distance from A to B and the angle formed between that distance and the distance from A to the other point (C) is equal to 90°, meaning that we are working with a right triangle, also, we need to use the given angle which is equal to 34°. So, to solve the problem we can use the following trigonometric relation:
![Tan\alpha =\frac{Opposite}{Adjacent}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Tan%5Calpha%20%3D%5Cfrac%7BOpposite%7D%7BAdjacent%7D)
Where,
alpha is the given angle, 34°
Adjacent is the distance from A to B, which is equal to 60 feet.
Opposite is the distance from A to C which is also equal to the width of the river.
So, substituting and calculating we have:
![Tan(34\°) =\frac{Width}{60ft}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Tan%2834%5C%C2%B0%29%20%3D%5Cfrac%7BWidth%7D%7B60ft%7D)
![Width=60ft*Tan(34\°)=60ft*0.67=40.2ft=40ft](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Width%3D60ft%2ATan%2834%5C%C2%B0%29%3D60ft%2A0.67%3D40.2ft%3D40ft)
Hence, we have that the correct option is:
D. 40 feet.
Have a nice day!
