Answer:
5 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
This is because if you draw a line going west and label it as 4 miles, then draw another line going south and label it 3 miles, you form a right angle, right? So, the fastest way to go back would be taking a diagonal-like route back to the beginning. Does this shape look familiar to you? Right! It's a right triangle. And do the numbers 3, 4, and 5 sound familiar to you? Yup, it's a Pythagorean triplet. If the legs of a right triangle are 3 and 4, the hypotenuse is 5. Why am I saying this? Because, in the drawing you just did, the 4 miles west and 3 miles south were the legs, and the diagonal path back to the beginning is the hypotenuse. Get it now?
Happy to help! :)
Answer:
It is impossible to draw two different triangles with these criteria.
Step-by-step explanation:
The 3,4,5 triangle is a Pythagorean triplet, but if it was said to be 6,8,10, then yes two different triangles can be made, same with any other multiple of a 3,4,5 right triangle. The 3,4,5 triangle is in its reduced form causing there to be no other triangles that can be made that still function as a triangle through the theorem of triangles where the hypotenuse has to be bigger than either side length.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The principal was compounded monthly. This means that it was compounded 12 times in a year. So
n = 12
The rate at which the principal was compounded is 4%. So
r = 4/100 = 0.04
The formula for compound interest is
A = P(1+r/n)^nt
A = total amount in the account at the end of t years. The total amount is given as $100000.
1) When t is 1,
100000 = P(1+0.04/12)^12×1
100000 = P(1+0.0033)^12
100000 = P(1.0033)^12
P = 100000/1.04
P = $96154
2) When t is 10
100000 = P(1+0.04/12)^12×10
100000 = P(1+0.0033)^120
100000 = P(1.0033)^120
P = 100000/1.485
P = $67340
3) When t is 20
100000 = P(1+0.04/12)^12×20
100000 = P(1+0.0033)^240
100000 = P(1.0033)^240
P = 100000/2.2
P = $45455
4) When t is 30
100000 = P(1+0.04/12)^12 × 30
100000 = P(1+0.0033)^360
100000 = P(1.0033)^360
P = 100000/3.274
P = $30544
5) When t is 40
100000 = P(1+0.04/12)^12 × 40
100000 = P(1+0.0033)^480
100000 = P(1.0033)^480
P = 100000/4.862
P = $20568
6)When t is 50
100000 = P(1+0.04/12)^12 × 50
100000 = P(1+0.0033)^600
100000 = P(1.0033)^600
P = 100000/7.22
P = $13850
