Acompany with $60,000 in sales last year had $69,000 in sales this year. assuming the company's sales continue to grow at the same rate each year, what will the annual sales be two years from now?   a.  $74,000  b.  $82,505  c.  $79,350  d.  $91,253

The easiest method for me when solving percentages is to always find 10% of the number first. This is easy because you just move the decimal to the left once. This means that 10% of $60,000 is $6,000.

Now if you want to find 5% just divide the number that was 10% in half (because half of 10% is 5%). So this gives us that 5% is $3,000.

If we want 15% we simply add these numbers (10%+5%=15%) and we get $9,000. This means that the company's sales grew 15% in one year and $60,000 + $9,000 = $69,000.

But the question is stating that the "company's sales continue to grow at the same rate each year" so we need to find 15% of the new value every time. This means that we need to find 15% of $69,000.

We do the same and start with 10% giving us $6,900. We then find

5% = $3,450 . And then we add the two giving us $10,350.

Don't forget to add this to what we already had because this is just the gain in the second year and your final answer should be $79,350.

step-by-step explanation:

here x represents the height of the pole,

and, the height of the shadow of the pole is 12 feet.

also, the angle of elevation from the top of the pole is 40°,

therefore,

by the low of sine,

which is the required equation for finding the value of x,
