Triangle ABC:
<ABC=90°
<ACB=y

Triangle CDE:
<CDE=90°
<DCE=y

The two triangles have two congruent angles, then they are similars, and theirs sides must be proportionals:

Adjacent angle to y / Hypotenuse

Triangle CDE       Triangle ABC
CD/CE             =       BC/AC

Replacing the values:
x/7=(20-x)/21

Solving for x. Cross multiplication:
(21)(x)=(7)(20-x)
21x=140-7x
21x+7x=140-7x+7x
28x=140
28x/28=140/28
x=5

Length of CD = x = 5

Answer: The length of CD is 5

Answer: 5

A company deposits $5,000 into an account that earns interest. The rate at which the value changes is given by dA/dt=0.0225A, wh
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

  $6261.61

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution to the differential equation is the exponential function ...

  A(t) = 5000e^(0.0225t)

We want the account value after 10 years:

  A(10) = 5000e^(0.225) = 6261.61

The value of the account after 10 years will be $6,261.61.

_____

The rate of change equation basically tells you that interest is compounded continuously. After working interest problems for a while you know the formula for that is the exponential formula A = A0·e^(rt).

Or, you can solve the differential equation using separation of variables:

  dA/A = 0.0225dt

  ln(A) = 0.0225t +C . . . . integrate

  A(t) = A0·e^(0.0225t) = 5000·e^(0.0225t) . . . . solution for A(0) = 5000
