A cable 13 meters long runs from the top of a utility pole to a point on the ground 5 meters from the base of the pole. How tall is the utility pole?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

height of the utility pole = 12 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

It is simple application of Pythagoras theorem.

In the given case, Length of cable (Hypotenuse) H = 13 meters, distance between base of pole to the point on the ground(Base) B = 5 meters and height of pole ( Perpendicular) P form a right angle triangle.

The applying Pythagoras theorem.

H^2 = P^2 +B^2

⇒ P^2 = H^2-B^2 = 13^2-5^2 = 144

⇒ P = 12 meters

hence, height of the utility pole = 12 meters

Jose wants to pay off his credit card balances within 18 months. He is trying to decide if he should use his $1,750 in
savings to pay off part of the balances or if he should transfer the balances to a new card with a low introductory
rate. The new credit card has an introductory rate of 8% but charges a balance transfer fee of $60 for each balance
transfer. Jose decides to pay off Credit Card B using his savings and then transfer the balance of Card A to the new
card. Which of the following options shows the amount of Jose's new monthly payment?
Credit Card A: $1,154
Credit Card B $1,469
A. $90.43
B. $68.25
C. $71 80
D. $75.34

Answers

Answer:

ANSWER IS C: 71.80

Step-by-step explanation:

hope this helps :D you got this!!

The amount that corresponds to the new monthly payment of Jose is approximately $75.34. Hence, option D is correct.

What is use of credit card ?

Credit cards are a widely used financial tool that allow individuals to make purchases on credit. The main use of a credit card is to allow the cardholder to borrow money from the card issuer

If Jose decides to pay off Credit Card B using his savings of $1,750, he will have a remaining balance of $1,154 on Credit Card A.

If he transfers the balance of Credit Card A to the new card with a low introductory rate of 8%, he will incur a balance transfer fee of $60.

The total balance transferred =  $1,154 + $60 = $1,214.

To determine his new monthly payment, we need to calculate the monthly interest rate on the new card.

At an annual interest rate of 8%, the monthly interest rate is :

8% / 12 = 0.67%.

Using an online loan calculator or spreadsheet, we can calculate that the monthly payment required to pay off a balance of $1,214 in 18 months at a monthly interest rate of 0.67% is $75.34 (rounded to the nearest cent).

Therefore, the answer is D. $75.34, which represents Jose's new monthly payment.

A recipe uses cups of milk to make servings. If the same amount of milk is used for each serving, how many servings can be made using gallon of milk?

Answers

Answer:

128 servings

Step-by-step explanation:

A recipe Uses 1 1/4 cups of milk to make 10 servings if the same amount of milk is used for each serving how many servings can be made using one gallon of milk

Cups of milk : number of servings = 1 1/4 cups : 10 servings

One gallon of milk = 16 cups

Let x = number of servings

Cups of milk : number of servings = 16 cups : x

Equate both ratios

1 1/4 : 10 = 16 : x

5/4 ÷ 10 = 16/x

5/4 × 1/10 = 16/x

5/40 = 16/x

1/8 = 16/x

Cross product

1 * x = 8 * 16

x = 128 servings

Number of servings = 128

Option 3: cos A=15/17

Step-by-step explanation:

Sine is the opposite side over the hypotenuse,

Cosine is the adjacent side over the hypotenuse, and

Tangent is opposite side over the adjacent side

You can remember this with the acronym SOHCAHTOA (sine, opposite, hypotenuse, cosine, adjacent, hypotenuse, tangent, opposite, adjacent)

Option 3 uses cosine, so the adjacent angle to angle A would be 15 and the hypotenuse would be 17, so 15/17

Step-by-step explanation: Go.dzilla 2 king of monsters is one of the best movies out there in my opinion, right down to the CGI, the movie makers did a fantastic job of creating an emotional attachment to the family in the movie.  

Basically in the movie it starts in a nuclear power plant, the power plant has a melt down, kil.ling the team that went into the core to see what the issue was, the director of the power plants wife died and he knew that it wasn.t normal for the plant to meltdown the way it did, so he dedicates the rest of his life to trying to figure out what really happened there. He even goes as far as to sneak in to the restricted area with his son, when there they find out that they are digging up something from the wreckage, this is the giant moth (it wont let me say the name), The giant moth was feeding on the nuclear radiation and that was what caused the plant to melt down all those years ago. the giant moth then flies across the country searching for nuclear radiation and in turn waking her mate and destroying the place, this awakens Go.dzilla so that he can reassert himself as the ap.ex predator. He finds both the giant moths and kil.ls them and then returns to the bottom of the ocean.

The simple interest on a certain sum for 5years at 8% per annum is Rs200 less than the simple interest on the same sum for 3years and 4months at 18% per annum.Find the sum​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The simple interest on a certain sum for 5years at 8% per annum is Rs200 less than the simple interest on the same sum for 3years and 4months at 18% per annum.Find the sum​

The formula for Simple Interest = PRT

From above question, we have to find the Principal

The simple interest on a certain sum for 5years at 8% per annum is Rs200

Hence,

R = 8%

T = 5 years

Rs 200 = P × 8% × 5

P = 200/8% × 5

P = Rs500

The principal = Rs 500

The simple interest on the same sum for 3years and 4months at 18% per annum.

Simple Interest = PRT

R = 18%

T = 3 years and 4 months

Converted to years

T = 3 + (4 months/12 months)

T = 3.33 years

Hence,

Simple Interest = Rs 500 × 18% × 3.33 years

= Rs 299.7

Mary was allowed a discount of 11% for goods worth sh.8000 and a discount of 8.6% for goods worth sh.17000. What percentage discount was she allowed altogether ​

Answers

Mary got 9.37%. discount .

What is percentage discount?A percentage discount is a reduction in the price of a good or service that is expressed as a number of hundred. A 20 percent reduction, for instance, would result in an item that was originally $100 costing $80.

Given ,

             discount = 11%

So,

        ((8000x0.110) + (17000x0.086)) = 2342

           ⇒     2342 / (8000+17000) = 2342/25000

                                    = 0.0937 or 9.37% discount.

The percentage discount allowed all together was 9.37%.
