A) Use the trigonometric function and ratio cos(x) = A/H. (Adjacent/Hypotenuse)
1. cos(x) = 135/H
2. H*cos(16°) = 135
3. H = 135/cos(16°)
***Make sure calculator is in degree mode***
4. H = 140.44 ft (rounded to two decimal places)
________

b) Use the function and ratio tan(x) = O/A (Opposite/Adjacent)
1. tan(x) = O/A
2. tan(16°) = O/135
3. 135*tan(16°) = O
4. O = 38.71 ft (two decimal places)

Good luck!

James wants to invest $12,000. He can invest the money at 7.2% simple interest for 30 yr or he can invest at 6.8% with interest
Sever21 [200]

Over time, compound interest at any rate will outperform simple interest. When the rates are nearly equal to start with, compound interest will be greater in very short order. Here, it takes less than 1 year for compound interest to give a larger account balance.

In 30 years, the simple interest will be

... I = P·r·t = 12,000·0.07·30 = 25,200

In 30 years, the compound interest will be

... I = P·(e^(rt) -1) = 12,000·(e^(.068·30) -1) ≈ 80,287.31

_____

6.8% compounded continuously results in more total interest
