Given That :

Length of ladder = 15m

Height of wall =. 9 m

Using Pythagoras rule :

Adjacent² = 225 - 81

Adjacent² = 144

Adjacent = sqrt(144)

Adjacent, x = 12

Use common factors to write two fractions equivalent to 80/140
9966 [12]

Answer:

80/140 = (80:20)/(140:20) = 4/7

4/7 = (4*4)/(7*4) = 16/28

4/7 = (4*5)/(7*5) = 20/35 not 20/28 not 20/32

4/7 = (4*5.5)/(7*5.5) = 22/38.5 not 22/37

If nelson invests $5000 for 4 years and earns $600, what is the simple interest rate?
klio [65]

Answer: Simple interest rate = 3%.


Step-by-step explanation: We are given invested amount = $5000.

Number of years of investment = 4 years.

Interest earned = $600.

Simple interest formula.

I = P R T.

Where I is the earned interest, P is the invested amount , R is the rate of interest and T is the time in years.

Plugging values in formula, we get

600 = 5000 × R × 4

600 = 20000R.

Dividing both sides by 20000, we get

\frac{600}{20000}  = \frac{20000R}{20000} .

0.03 = R.

Multiplying by 100 to convert it in percentage, we get

0.03 × 100 = R

R = 3 %.
