Answer:

15.95 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Angle of elevation = 62°

Using trigonometric relation :

Tanθ = opposite / Adjacent

From the drawing attached :

Opposite = 30 feets

Distance between girl and lighthouse = d

Tan 62 = 30 / d

1.8807264 * d = 30

d = 30 / 1.8807264

d = 15.951283

d = 15.95 feets

Answer: $107,836.69 or about $107,837 (to the nearest dollar)

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to the  accumulated amount received after investing principal amount (P) at rate of interest (r) compounded monthly for t months :

A=P(1+\dfrac{r}{12})^{t}

As per given , A = $130,000

r= 7.5% = 0.075

t= 30 months

Now,

130000=P(1+\dfrac{0.075}{12})^{30}\\\\\Rightarrow 130000=P(1+0.00625)^{30}\\\\\Rightarrow 130000=P(1.00625)^{30}\\\\\Rightarrow 130000=P \times1.20552661036\\\\\Rightarrow\   P=\dfrac{130000}{1.2055266}=107,836.69

Hence he need to invest $107,836.69 .

F - Irrational, -13.8
Because the negative sign is not inside of the radical, we can tell that the number is being multiplied by the negative. Thus, do the radical equation first, get the answer 13.8202... and multiply by -1 to get the answer. Also, it is irrational because it is not a perfect square.
