ANSWER: C
Answer:
22 1/4 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
you can sketch this problem to be a right triangle with a hypotenuse of 24 feet and one leg of 9 feet (17 - 8).
use Pythagorean Theorem to find the base side, which represents the distance between the posts
a² + 9² = 24²
a² + 81 = 576
a² = 576 - 81
a² = 495
a = ![\sqrt{495}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%7B495%7D)
a =
·
= 3
, which is approx 22.25
Answer:
The total in the account after 10 years would be: $14,190.68
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall the formula for continuous compounding:
![A=P\,e^{r\,t}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=A%3DP%5C%2Ce%5E%7Br%5C%2Ct%7D)
where "A" is the accrued value after t years (what we need to find), "P" is the principal invested (in our case $10,000), "r" is the interest rate in decimal form (in our case r = 0.035), and "t" is the time in years (in our case t = 10). Therefore the formula becomes:
![A=P\,e^{r\,t}\\A=10000\,\,e^{0.035\,*\.10}\\A=14190.68](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=A%3DP%5C%2Ce%5E%7Br%5C%2Ct%7D%5C%5CA%3D10000%5C%2C%5C%2Ce%5E%7B0.035%5C%2C%2A%5C.10%7D%5C%5CA%3D14190.68)
Therefore the total in the account after 10 years would be: $14,190.68
Answer:
From least to greatest:
0.54, 0.729, 0.90, and then 0.905
