Return rate, r = 3% = 0.03
x = initial investment
b = final balance
After 1 year, the balance i
b = initial investment + interest
b = x + r*x = (1 + r)*x
Because r = 0.03,
b = 1.03x (after 1 year)
Answer:
You aren't even giving 200 points.
Step-by-step explanation:
The television set has a rectangular shape. The diagonal of this rectangle along with its width and length together form a right angular triangle.
This means that we can apply the Pythagorean theorem which states that:
(diagonal)^2 = (length)^2 + (width)^2
Let the width be w. We know that the length is 0.75 times the width, this means that: length = 0.75 w
Substitute in the above equation:
(20)^2 = (0.75w)^2 + (w)^2
400 = 0.5625 w^2 + w^2
400 = 1.5625 w^2
w^2 = 256
w = 16
This means that the width of the screen is 16 in.
Huhhhh? Is this question complete?
