Use a reference angle to write sec255∘ in terms of the secant of a positive acute angle. Do not include the degree symbol in your answer. For example, if the answer is sec(10∘), you would enter sec(10).

sec (75) or csc (15)

Step-by-step explanation:

255 is in the 3rd quadrant where the secant is. Here, the tangent and cotangent is positive.

Reference angle for 255 is,

255 - 180 = 75 degrees.

Therefore, sec (255) = sec (75)

= csc (90 - 75) = csc (15)

answer: c, the green line

step-by-step explanation:

there is no black line, eliminate b.

simple interest implies periodic payments, but the red line shows no payments, eliminate d.

simple interest has equal payments. if paid say every day, the graph is about a straight line (actually a stairstep).

the yellow line is not straight, eliminate a.

check: the green line is straight, answer is c.

simple interest with positive interest rate gives a straight line sloping up to the right. green line:

g(t) = $100 + ($200-$100) ÷ (20 years) × (t years)

= $100 + (4%/year) × ($100)(t years)

incidentally, the yellow line curving upward represents continuously compounded interest

y = $100 × 2^(t years / (14 assuming the yellow line hits $200 at 14 years. 2^0 is 1, so y(0) = $100; 2^(14/14) is 2, so y(14) = $200.
