Assuming that CB is tangent, this is just a right triangle with a hypotenuse of 20 and a side of 12 so by the Pythagorean Theorem:
20^2=12^2+x^2
400=144+x^2
x^2=400-144
x^2=256
x=16
7p - 4 + 12p = -3(5 + p)
7p - 4 + 12p = -15 - 3p
+ 4 + 4
7p + 12p = -11 - 3p
+ 3p + 3p
22p = -11
p = -1/2 Answer
Answer:
r=20%
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The simple interest formula is equal to
where
A is the Final Investment Value
P is the Principal amount of money to be invested
r is the rate of interest
t is Number of Time Periods
in this problem we have
substitute in the formula above
solve for r
