-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Given information
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
3/8 of the orange juice = 3/4 liter

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find 1/8
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
3/8 of the orange juice = 3/4 liter
1/8 of the orange juice = 3/4 ÷ 3
1/8 of the orange juice = 3/4 x 1/3
1/8 of the orange juice = 1/4 liter

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find 8/8, which is one whole
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
1/8 of the orange juice = 1/4 liter
8/8 of the orange juice = 1/4 x 8
8/8 of the orange juice = 2 liters

You begin your first day as a police officer earning $30,000/yr. Assuming that you obtain a full 5% increase each year, what wil
spayn [35]

Answer:

The equation for the amount of salary after x number of years is given by:

y = a(1+r)^x

where

a is the initial amount

x represents the number of years and

r represents the growth rate( in decimal)

As per the statement:

You begin your first day as a police officer earning $30,000/yr

⇒ a= 30,000

It is also given that you obtain a full 5% increase each year,

⇒r = 5\% = 0.05

then;

y = 30,000(1+0.05)^x    

y = 30,000(1.05)^x       ....[1]

we have to find the salary in three years.

⇒x = 3

Substitute this value in [1] we have

y = 30,000(1.05)^3

Simplify:

y = \$ 34,4728.75

therefore, your salary be in three years will be $34,4728.75

How are triangles different in spherical geometry as opposed to euclidean geometry?
Ivan
Euclidean geometry, is simply plane and solid geometry. It is named after the Greek mathematician, Euclid, when he proposed his five postulates which serve as basis of drawing plane and solid figures. So, in a nutshell, a triangle in Euclidean geometry is a two-dimensional figure composed of three sides and whose interior angles sum up to 180°. A triangle in spherical geometry, on the other hand, is a triangle formed by three arcs. Thus, it is three-dimensional, and the interior angles sum up to more than 180°. The difference is shown in the attached picture.
