Bank A = 1000 x (1 + (0.04*6)) = $1,240
Bank B = 1000 x (1+0.03)^6 = $1,194.05
Bank A would be worth more
Answer:
D. 11.8 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
This triangle is a 30°-60°-90° triangle. There is a shortcut to find the lengths of the sides of a 30°-60°-90° triangle. The longest side is the hypotenuse. The longest side is double the shortest side or, the shortest side is half the longest side. Here the longest side is 5, so the short leg (shortest side) is 2.5
The other shortcut is that the longer leg is the
short leg×sqroot3
Here, the short leg is 2.5, so the long leg is 2.5×sqroot3
Perimeter is all the sides added together.
5 + 2.5+ 2.5×sqrt3
Do the times first.
5 + 2.5 + 4.3
= 11.8
Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
These equations are solved easily using a graphing calculator. The attachment shows the one solution is x=2.

<h3>Squaring</h3>
The usual way to solve these algebraically is to isolate radicals and square the equation until the radicals go away. Then solve the resulting polynomial. Here, that results in a quadratic with two solutions. One of those is extraneous, as is often the case when this solution method is used.

The solutions to this equation are the values of x that make the factors zero: x=2 and x=-1. When we check these in the original equation, we find that x=-1 does not work. It is an extraneous solution.
x = -1: √(-1+2) +1 = √(3(-1)+3) ⇒ 1+1 = 0 . . . . not true
x = 2: √(2+2) +1 = √(3(2) +3) ⇒ 2 +1 = 3 . . . . true . . . x = 2 is the solution

<h3>Substitution</h3>
Another way to solve this is using substitution for one of the radicals. We choose ...

Solutions to this equation are ...
u = 2, u = -1 . . . . . . the above restriction on u mean u=-1 is not a solution
The value of x is ...
x = u² -2 = 2² -2
x = 2 . . . . the solution to the equation

<em>Additional comment</em>
Using substitution may be a little more work, as you have to solve for x in terms of the substituted variable. It still requires two squarings: one to find the value of x in terms of u, and another to eliminate the remaining radical. The advantage seems to be that the extraneous solution is made more obvious by the restriction on the value of u.
