Based on the shaded region, the value of x which makes this region a gnomon is x = 1.

<h3>What is value of x?</h3>

Based on the dimensions of the side that isn't shaded, and the dimensions of the side that is shaded, the value of x can be found as:

3/ 6 = (1 + 3) / (x + 6 + x)

1/2 = 4 / (6 + 2x)

6 + 2x = 4 / (1/2)

2x = 8 - 6

x = 2/2

x = 1

Leon charged $75 at an interest rate of 12.5% how much will Leon have to pay after one month if he makes no payments

OlgaM077 [116]

So basically, let's look at the given. In the problem, Leon is charged a fee of 75. The interest rate would be 12.5 % if he doesn't pay his due amount. So in order to get the total amount that he has to pay if he doesn't pay on time, you just need to multiply 75 with 12.5% or simply 0.125. If you do this, you will get 9.375. After that, you add 9.375 to the principal amount which is 75 and you will get 84.375. So Leon has to now pay a total of 84.375.

I hope this HELP! :)
