Answer:
Sarah has to invest $502,958.58 today.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a simple interest problem.
The simple interest formula is given by:
In which E is the amount of interest earned, P is the principal(the initial amount of money), I is the interest rate(yearly, as a decimal) and t is the time.
After t years, the total amount of money is:
In this question:
She has to invest P today.
So
Sarah has to invest $502,958.58 today.
More card math! Easy!!
Exactly 1/4 of a 52-card deck of cards is clubs. Another 1/4 spades, another 1/4 is hearts, and the final 1/4 is diamonds. To find what one fourth of 52is, you can divide 52 by 4. That equals 13. So there are 13 clubs in the entire deck of cards. If you are trying <em>not </em>to get a club, you have to find the remainder of the cards without those 13. 52 - 13 = 39. This means that you have 39/52 odds of <em>not </em>getting a club. Simplified you get 3/4.
I did it the long way. A shorter was is to see that, obviously, one whole minus one fourth is three fourths.
Step-by-step answer:
The first step in solving a problem of geometry and trigonometry is to draw a diagram, with all the given information in it. The attached image does just that.
Here, we have (horizontal) distance of building to the tower is 400'.
We see two right triangles, each with a leg of 400' (horizontal).
The vertical distances are denoted h1 and h2 for the angles of elevation 24 and 20 degrees respectively.
Using the definition of tangent, we have
h1= 400tan24=178.1
h2=400tan20=145.6
The height of the tower is therefore h1+h2=178.1+145.6=323.7 feet
