32.


so, the two dashes on the lines, the | represent those two portions are equal. also it alr says that MN is the segment bisector, and bisector means that something is split in half.


so, this basically means we can set 3x+1 and 8x-24 equal to each other


3x+1=8x-24

so we need to split up the numbers so x is on one side. the easiest way to do this is to move the -24 to the other side. to do this, we need to balance the equation. if we move one thing to one side, we need to flip the sign. so -24 is negative, so we need to make it +24 and add it to 1


3x+25=8x


now, move 3x to the other side, but since it’s positive, make it -3x. subtract it from 8x


25 = 5x


now, x is attached to 5 by multiplication so we need to do the opposite of multiplication, division. divide 25 by 5 to isolate x


5 = x



so since x = 5, we can plug it back in to any of the segments ill pick 3x+1


3(5)+1


that equals 16


since we know both lines are equal in length, we can double 16, which equals 32

The value of a stock increases at a rate of 1/2% per year. If the initial value of the stock $40 a share, when will the value of
natka813 [3]

Answer:

After 50 years the stock value will be $50 per share.

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple Interest Equation (Principal + Interest)

A = P(1 + rt)

Where:

A = Future amont = $50

P = Principal Amount = $40

r = Rate of Interest per year in decimal; r = R/100 = 0.5/100 = 0.005

t = Time Period involved in months or years  

Plug in the values

50 = 40(1 + 0.005t)

50 / 40 = (1 + 0.005t)

5/4 = 1 + 0.005t

5/4 - 1 = 0.005t

0.25 = 0.005t

t = 0.25 / 0.005

t = 50 years

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

2m wide

Step-by-step explanation:

a=lw

15\frac{1}{2} =7\frac{3}{4} w

\frac{31}{2} =\frac{31}{4} w

w=\frac{\frac{31}{2} }{\frac{31}{4} } =\frac{(31)(4)}{(31)(2)} =2

wide = 2m

Hope this helps
