Answer:

410.32

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the initial quantity, Q= 6200

Decay rate, r = 5.5% per month

So, the value of quantity after 1 month, q_1 = Q- r \times Q

q_1 = Q(1-r)\cdots(i)

The value of quantity after 2 months, q_2 = q_1- r \times q_1

q_2 = q_1(1-r)

From equation (i)

q_2=Q(1-r)(1-r)  \\\\q_2=Q(1-r)^2\cdots(ii)

The value of quantity after 3 months, q_3 = q_2- r \times q_2

q_3 = q_2(1-r)

From equation (ii)

q_3=Q(1-r)^2(1-r)

q_3=Q(1-r)^3

Similarly, the value of quantity after n months,

q_n= Q(1- r)^n

As 4 years = 48 months, so puttion n=48 to get the value of quantity after 4 years, we have,

q_{48}=Q(1-r)^{48}

Putting Q=6200 and r=5.5%=0.055, we have

q_{48}=6200(1-0.055)^{48} \\\\q_{48}=410.32

Hence, the value of quantity after 4 years is 410.32.

Heron’s formula: Area = Triangle PQR has sides measuring 9 feet and 10 feet and a perimeter of 24 feet. What is the area of tria
VladimirAG [237]
Hello,

Let's assume a,b,c the 3 sides of the triangle.

a=9
b=10
c=24-a-b=5

p= \dfrac{a+b+c}{2} =12\\

S= \sqrt{p(p-a)(p-b)(p-c)} = \sqrt{12*3*2*7} = \sqrt{504} =22,4499...\approx{22}

the slide at the playground has a height of 6 feet.The base of the slide measured on the ground is 8 feet.what is the length of
NemiM [27]
The formula for finding the length is
{a}^{2}  +  {b}^{2} = {c}^{2}
All we have to do is plug in the numbers.

{6}^{2}  +  {8}^{2}  =  {c}^{2}
36 + 64 = 100

Since 100 =
{c}^{2}
we have to find the square root.

\sqrt{100}  = 10

The length of the slide is 10 feet.
