Answer: $1487.50

Step-by-step explanation:

hey there again!

Facts:

Principal (starting amount): $1,400

Annual interest rate: 12.5% of the principal. Whenever you get an annual interest rate as a percentage, its always that percentage of the starting amount.

Time given: 6 months, 1/2 a year

the question asks "total amount due' in 6 months. Basically, we want to know how much they will have in their account after 6 months.

Step 1: Find how much interest he will get in 6 months as a percentage.

6 months is 1/2 of a year, so find 1/2 of 12.5

1/2 of 12.5

1/2 x 12.5

0.5 x 12.5

6.25%

Step 2: Find how much interest he gets, but as a number.

Principal: $1400

6.25% of 1400= $87.50

Step 3: Find the total amount of money he will have after 6 months.

he starts with 1400, and gets an additional $87.50 added to his account after 6 months. How much does he have now?

To answer this, add to find the total:

87.50+1400= $1487.50

Find the value of x. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

natka813 [3]

That's a question about the Pythagorean Theorem.

We use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the value of one side in a right triangle.

This theorem says that:

$\boxed{a^2 = b^2 + c^2}$

a is the hypotenuse (It's the opposite side the right angle).
b and c are cathetus (They're the adjacent sides the right angle).

Okay, now, let's go to solve this problem! In our figure, we have two cathetus. Their values are 10 and 7 and we have to find the value of x (the hypotenuse). Let's change this information in that formula.

$a^2 = b^2 + c^2\\x^2 = 10^2 + 7^2\\x^2 = 100 + 49\\x^2 = 149\\x = \sqrt{149}$

Therefore, the value of x is $\sqrt{149}$ .

I hope I've helped. :D

You have soccer practice every 4th day and violin lessons every 10th day. You

DiKsa [7]

Answer:

You would meet on day 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Because when you are multiplying ten with numbers then first number changes but the 0 doesnt and then 4 meets 10 at 20 and 40 because you can multiply ten and 4 and you would get 40 so therefore you would meet on day 40.

What is the slope of the line?

irga5000 [103]

Answer: -9/5

Step-by-step explanation: To find the slope, we must understand that the slope of a line is defined as the ratio rise/run.

The rise is the vertical direction of the line and the

run is the horizontal direction of the line.

So to start, I am going to pick 2 points on this line.

You want to find points where the line crosses the four corners.

In the diagram, those would be the points (-4, 5) and (1, -4).

Now, we can use slope formula.

Slope = y₂ - y₁ / x₂ - x₁

So we have -4 - 5/1 - -4 which simplifies to -9/5.

So the slope is -9/5.
