Answer:

12 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to use the inverse of the pythagorean theorem to do this so you do square root of (20x20-16x16) which is 12

Evaluate without a calculator:<br><br><br> cot -270°
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

The cotangent function is defined as cot x = adj / opp.

The terminal side of 270 degrees is the lower half of the y-axis.  The adj side is zero (0) and the opp side is -1;

Therefore, cot (-270 degrees) = adj / opp = 0/(-1) = 0

ANSWER QUICK!! 75 PTS!!!
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

2) x = -2 , y = 2

3) no solution exists

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{-2 x - 3 y = -2

y = 2 x + 6

Hint: | Perform a substitution.

Substitute y = 2 x + 6 into the first equation:

{-2 x - 3 (2 x + 6) = -2

y = 2 x + 6

Hint: | Expand the left hand side of the equation -2 x - 3 (2 x + 6) = -2.

-2 x - 3 (2 x + 6) = (-6 x - 18) - 2 x = -8 x - 18:

{-8 x - 18 = -2

y = 2 x + 6

Hint: | Choose an equation and a variable to solve for.

In the first equation, look to solve for x:

{-8 x - 18 = -2

y = 2 x + 6

Hint: | Isolate terms with x to the left hand side.

Add 18 to both sides:

{-8 x = 16

y = 2 x + 6

Hint: | Solve for x.

Divide both sides by -8:

{x = -2

y = 2 x + 6

Hint: | Perform a back substitution.

Substitute x = -2 into the second equation:

Answer: {x = -2 , y = 2

Suppose that $3000 is placed in an account that pays 16% interest compounded each year. Assume that no withdrawals are made from
Papessa [141]

Answer:

a) $3480

b) $4036.8

Step-by-step explanation:

The compound interest formula is given by:

A(t) = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}

Where A(t) is the amount of money after t years, P is the principal(the initial sum of money), r is the interest rate(as a decimal value), n is the number of times that interest is compounded per year and t is the time in years for which the money is invested or borrowed.

Suppose that $3000 is placed in an account that pays 16% interest compounded each year.

This means, respectively, that P = 3000, r = 0.16, n = 1

So

A(t) = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}

A(t) = 3000(1 + \frac{0.16}{1})^{t}

A(t) = 3000(1.16)^{t}

(a) Find the amount in the account at the end of 1 year.

This is A(1).

A(t) = 3000(1.16)^{t}

A(1) = 3000(1.16)^{1} = 3480

(b) Find the amount in the account at the end of 2 years.

This is A(2).

A(2) = 3000(1.16)^{2} = 4036.8
