We will traduce the sentences into equations.
Let x be the number of hours in the first job, and y be the number of hours in the second job.
Then the equations are:

The above system has many solution, we can select for example:
x = 1, y = 16. So we can work one hour at the first job and 16 hour at the second job.
The angle measured from the normal to the mirror will be
.. arctan(14/11.5) ≈ 50.6°
Let m∠CLN = x. Then m∠ALM = 3x, and m∠A = 90°-x, m∠C = 90°-3x.
The sum of angles of ∆ABC is 180°, so we have
... 180° = 40° + m∠A + m∠C
Using the above expressions for m∠A and m∠C, we can write ...
... 180° = 40° + (90° -x) + (90° -3x)
... 4x = 40° . . . . . . . . . add 4x-180°
... x = 10°
From which we conclude ...
... m∠C = 90°-3x = 90° - 3·10° = 60°
The ratio of CN to CL is
... CN/CL = cos(∠C) = cos(60°)
... CN/CL = 1/2
so ...
... CN = (1/2)CL
Answer:
The principal amount was $23,393.45
Step-by-step explanation:
The total amount paid on a 35 year loan was $98,000 at the rate of interest 4.1%
We will calculate Principal amount by this formula

Where A = amount (98,000)
P = Principal amount (P)
r = rate of interest 4.1% (0.041)
n = number of compounding interest monthly (12)
t = time (35 years)



98,000 = P(4.189386)
= 4.189386P = 98,000
P = 
P = 23,392.4494 ≈ $23,392.45
The principal amount was $23,393.45
It is easier to add 50 to a number than 48 because 50 has a zero in it which makes an addition simpler.
48 + 34 = borrow 2 from 34 and add to 48
= 50 + 32 50 + 32 is 82
= 82
