Today, a boat is valued at $45,000. the value is expected to decrease at a rate of 8.5% each year. what is the value of the boat expected to be 3 years from now? a.) 33,546.76 b.) 35,475.65 c.) 34,472.74 d.) 34,364.67

Current value of the boat = $45000

Rate at which the value decrease = 8.5%

So the value after 1 year will be =

Hence, value becomes =

After 2 years value will be =

Hence, value becomes=

After 3 years the value becomes =

Hence, value becomes=

Hence the answer is option C = $34472.74

answer:   28.56 feet (approx)

step-by-step explanation:

since, triangle abc has measure of angle c equal to 55 degrees, measure of angle abc equal to 90 degrees, and length of bc equal to 20 feet.

we have to find out the measurement of segment ab.

therefore, tan 55° =

but bc = 20 feet.

⇒ tan 55 ° =  

⇒ ab = 20 × tan 55 °

⇒ ab = 20 × 1.42814800674

⇒ ab = 28.5629601348   ≈ 28.56 feet
