Ahat [919]
Bank A:
A = 4500(1 + (0.09 × 6)) = 6930 
A = $ 6,930.00

The total amount accrued, principal plus interest,
from simple interest on a principal of $ 4,500.00
at a rate of 9% per year.
<span>for 6 years is $ 6,930.00.
</span>
Bank B: 
A = 4500(1 + (0.11 × 4)) = 6480 
A = $ 6,480.00

The total amount accrued, principal plus interest,
from simple interest on a principal of $ 4,500.00
at a rate of 11% per year
<span>for 4 years is $ 6,480.00.
</span>
So bank B would charge the least amount of interest.

What is the format of this proof? Given: ∠ABC is a right angle, ∠DBC is a straight angle Prove: ∠ABD is a right angle two-column
borishaifa [10]

Answer: Two column proof.

Explanation :

A two-column proof is one common way to organize a proof in geometry.Two-column proof always has two columns where one for statements and one for reasons.

Here,

\angle ABC is a right angle and \angle DBC is a straight angle(180^{\circ}) .    (given)

Therefore, \angle ABD  must be right angle. ( because, \angle ABD=\angle DBC-\angle ABC= 180^{\circ}-90^{\circ}=90^{\circ})

Which is the required proof.

Since, In the above proof both statements and reasons both mentioned, therefore, it is the two column proof.

Note: We can also make a table which consist of two columns, in first we can mention 'statements' while in second column we can mention 'reasons'.

Reptile [31]

<em>Greetings from Brasil...</em>

According to the question of the statement, we can conclude that

PQ = 2B

QR = 2B

PR = base = B

Perimeter = P = 105

P = PQ + QR + PR

105 = 2B + 2B + B

B = 21

<h2>PQ = 2B = 42</h2><h2>QR = 2B = 42</h2>
