Answer:

Let call the angle X

Its complement will be 90-x

Its supplement will be 180-x

(180-x)+15 = 4(90-x)

180-x+15 = 360-4x

4x-x = 360-180-15

3x = 165

x = 55

Prove

The complement of 55 is 35

And the supplement of 55 is 125

Now we must see if the relation stated holds

125+15 = 4(35)

125+15 = 140 The measure of the supplement of an angle is 15 degrees less than four times the measure of the complement.

140 = 140

Therefore the solution of the problem is given by an angle of 55 degrees.

After 10 years, there will have been 120 deposits. The last one earns 12%/12 = 1% interest, so is mutipied by 1.01. The one before is multiplied by 1.01². Overall, you have the sum of a geometric series of 120 terms with first term 10.10 and common ratio 1.01. That sum is given by the general formula
  Sn = a1·(r^n -1)/(r -1)
  S120 = 10.10(1.01^120 -1)/(1.01 -1)
  S120 = 1010·2.30038689 ≈ 2323

IRISSAK [1]

Answer:7881 years

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the equation

fraction remaining = 0.5n where n is # of half lives elapsed

n = ?

fraction remaining = 1 - 0.612 = 0.388

0.388 = 0.5n

n = 1.37 = the # of half lives

1.37 x 5750 yrs = 7881 years
