Answer:
The initial value is $78
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
(weekly)
Required
Determine the initial value
The initial value is the amount he has in its bank account before making his weekly savings.
From the question, we have that his initial balance is $78.
Hence, the initial value is $78
However, his weekly balance can be expressed as:
Represent number of weeks with x; So, we have:
Check out the attached image for the drawing of how this would look. The drawing isn't 100% needed but it helps I think.
Based on the figure shown in the attachment, we have a right triangle with the adjacent leg of 80 (this leg is closest to the bottom 12 degree angle) and an opposite leg of h
In short,
adjacent = 80
opposite = h
We'll use the tangent rule
tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent
tan(12) = h/80
80*tan(12) = h
h = 80*tan(12)
h = 17.0045249336018 <<-- see note below
So the lighthouse is roughly 17.0045249336018 meters tall
Answer: 17.0045249336018
Note: Make sure you are in degree mode. The value is approximate. Round this answer however you need to
