We are required to evaluate and answer both in radians and in degrees.
Step-by-step solution;
We shall begin by using the trig property;
[tex]tan^{-1}(-x)=-tan^{-1}(x)[/tex]Therefore, we now have;
[tex]tan^{-1}(-1)=-tan^{-1}(1)[/tex]We now use the table of common values and we'll have;

In order to find the original amount invested, we can use the following formula:
[tex]P=P_0(1+i)^t[/tex]Where P is the final amount, P0 is the original amount, i is the interest rate and t is the amount of time invested.
So, using P = 4840, i = 10% = 0.1 and t = 2, we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 4840=P_0(1+0.1)^2_{} \\ 4840=P_0\cdot1.1^2 \\ 4840=P_0\cdot1.21 \\ P_0=\frac{4840}{1.21} \\ P_0=4000 \end{gathered}[/tex]So the original amount invested is $4,000.
How much would you need to deposit in an account now in order to have $20,000 in the account in 4 years? Assume the account earns 5% interest.I want answer and explanation.
The rule of the simple interest is
[tex]\begin{gathered} I=PRT \\ A=P+I \end{gathered}[/tex]I is the amount of interest
P is the initial amount

T is the time
We need to find the initial amount if the new amount is $20,000, the interest rate is 5% for 4 years, then
A = 20000
R = 5/100 = 0.05
T = 4
Substitute them in the rules above
[tex]\begin{gathered} I=P(0.05)(4) \\ I=0.2P \\ 20000=P+0.2P \\ 20000=1.2P \\ \frac{20000}{1.2}=\frac{1.2P}{1.2} \\ 16666.67=P \end{gathered}[/tex]You need to deposit $16,666.67
The rule of the compounded interest
[tex]A=P(1+r)^t[/tex]A is the new amount
P is the initial amount
r is the interest rate in decimal
t is the time
A = 20000
r = 0.05
t = 4
Substitute them in the rule above
[tex]\begin{gathered} 20000=P(1+0.05)^4 \\ 20000=P(1.05)^4 \\ \frac{20000}{(1.05)^4}=\frac{P(1.05)^4}{(1.05)^4} \\ 16454.05=P \end{gathered}[/tex]You need to deposit $16,454.05

[tex]undefined[/tex]Solve for z. 24z - 48 = 16z + 112
Answer: z = 20
Explanation:
The given equation is
24z - 48 = 16z + 112
Subtracting 16z from both sides of the equation, we have
24z - 16z - 48 = 16z - 16z + 112
8z - 48 = 112
Adding 48 to both sides, we have
8z - 48 + 48 = 112 + 48
8z = 160
Dividing both sides by 8,
8z/8 = 160/8
z = 20

Solve triangle ABC. (If an answer does not exist, enter DNE. Round your answers to one decimal place.) a = 3.0, b = 4.0, C = 58°
Answer
A = 46.3°
B = 75.7°
c = 3.5
Explanation
We will be using both Cosine and Sine rule to solve this.
For Cosine rule,
If a triangle ABC has angles A, B and C at the points of the named vertices of the tringles with the sides facing each of these angles tagged a, b and c respectively, the Cosine rule is given as
c² = a² + b² - 2ab Cos C
a = 3.0
b = 4.0
C = 58°
c² = 3² + 4² - 2(3)(4)(Cos 58°)
c² = 9 + 16 - (24)(0.5299)
c² = 25 - 12.72 = 12.28
c = √12.28 = 3.50
To find the other angles, we will now use Sine Rule
If a triangle ABC has angles A, B and C at the points of the named vertices of the tringles with the sides facing each of these angles tagged a, b and c respectively, the sine rule is given as
[tex]\frac{\text{ Sin A}}{a}=\frac{\text{ Sin B}}{b}=\frac{\text{ Sin C}}{c}[/tex]So, we can use the latter parts to solve this
[tex]\frac{\text{ Sin B}}{b}=\frac{\text{ Sin C}}{c}[/tex]B = ?
b = 4.0
C = 58°
c = 3.5
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{\text{ Sin B}}{4}=\frac{\text{ Sin 58}\degree}{3.5} \\ \text{ Sin B = }\frac{4\times\text{ Sin 58}\degree}{3.5}=0.9692 \\ B=Sin^{-1}(0.9692)=75.7\degree \end{gathered}[/tex]We can then solve for Angle A
The sum of angles in a triangle is 180°
A + B + C = 180°
A + 75.7° + 58° = 180°
A = 180° - 133.7° = 46.3°

L is the midpoint of JM. K is the midpoint of JL. JL = 15. What is thelength of KM?
We can draw the situation as:
So, if L is the midpoint of JM, JL is equal to LM and JM is equal to 2 times JL
JL = LM
JL + LM = JM
JL + JL = JM
2JL = JM
We can calculate JM using JL as:
2JL = JM
2*15 = JM
30 = JM
Then, if K is the midpoint of JL, JK is equal to KL and JL is 2 times JK
JL = 2JK
Replacing JL by 15, we get:
15 = 2JK
15/2 = JK
7.5 = JK
Finally, KM can be calculated as:
KM = JM - JK
KM = 30 - 7.5
KM = 22.5
Answer: 22.5
A model of a 51 foot long airplane is 25 in long how is is a tire that is 1/6 tinch
The length of the tire on the airplane given the length of the tire on the model is 17 / 50 foot.
What is the length of the tire?The first step is to determine the scale of the model. In order to determine the scale, divide the length of the airplane by the length of the plane in the model.
Scale of the model = length of the airplane / length of the model
51 / 25 = 1 inch represents 2 1/25 foot
The next step is to multiply the scale determined in the previous step by the length of the tire.
Length of the tire on the airplane = scale x length of the tire in the model
1 / 6 x 2 1/25
1/6 x 51 / 25 = 17 / 50 foot

For the situation select expression or equation that is not equivalent to the rest.A $79 hoodie is on sale for 25% off.
Given:
$79 hoodie is on sale for 25% off
We can solve or express this in many ways;
If it is 25% off, then the price is;
(100% - 25%) x 79
= (75%) x 79
= (0.75) (79)
OR
The price is;
79 - 25%(79)
= 79 - (0.25)(79)
OR
0.75 x 79 is the same as;
(1 - 0.25)(79)
Therefore, the expression or equation that is NOT equivalent to the rest is

Given that figure ABCD is a dilation of figure KLMN, find the missing values:(note that values are slightly different because of a round-off error)
• Given the dimensions of ABCD:
m∠A = 71.68 degrees
m∠C = 47.68 degrees
m∠D = 141.87 degrees
CD = 4
AD = 6
BC = 8
• Dimensions of KLMN:
m∠K = 71.52 degrees
m∠L = 98.87 degrees
m∠M = 47.53 degrees
KL = 10
KN = 15
MN = 10
Let's find the missing values.
Given that figure ABCD is a dilation of KLMN, both figures are similar.
• Similar figures have proportional corresponding sides.

• X = m∠B = m∠L = 98.87 degrees
X = 98.87 degrees.
• Y = m∠N = m∠D = 141.87 degrees.
Y = 141.87 degrees

[tex]1-\frac{9}{5x}-1=\frac{8}{6}-1[/tex][tex]-\frac{9}{5x}=\frac{8}{6}-1[/tex][tex]\text{Use 1=}\frac{6}{6}\text{ as follows.}[/tex][tex]-\frac{9}{5x}=\frac{8}{6}-\frac{6}{6}[/tex][tex]-\frac{9}{5x}=\frac{8-6}{6}[/tex][tex]-\frac{9}{5x}=\frac{2}{6}[/tex][tex]-\frac{9}{5x}=\frac{1}{3}[/tex]Using the cross-product method, we get
[tex]-9\times3=5x[/tex][tex]-27=5x[/tex]Dividing by 5 into both sides, we get
[tex]-\frac{27}{5}=\frac{5x}{5}[/tex][tex]x=-\frac{27}{5}=-5.4[/tex]Hence the required answer is x=-5.4.
A new statue in a local park has a length (L), width (W), and height (H) (all in feet) that can be expressed by a system of equations. L+W=28L+H=26W+H=22What is the width of the statue?
To determine the width of the statue:
[tex]\begin{gathered} L+W=28\ldots\ldots..(1) \\ L+H=26\ldots\ldots\ldots(11) \\ W+H=22\ldots\ldots..(111) \end{gathered}[/tex]A local park has a length (L), width (W), and height (H) (all in feet)
Solve equation 1 and 2 simultaneously,
[tex]\begin{gathered} L+W=28 \\ L+H=26 \\ \text{Subtract equation (1) - (11)} \\ W-H=2\ldots\ldots\ldots(IV) \end{gathered}[/tex]Solve equation 3 & 4 simultaneously, make W the subject of formular
[tex]\begin{gathered} W+H=22 \\ W-H=2 \\ \text{Add the two equation} \\ 2W=24 \\ \text{divide both side by 2} \\ \frac{2W}{2}=\frac{24}{2} \\ W=12 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore the value of width of the statue = 12 feet
