Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

Since S is the midpoint of RT, then RS = ST

RS = RT - ST = (3x + 7) - (x + 7) = 3x + 7 - x - 7 = 2x

so we get that RS = 2x

but since RS = ST, and RS=2x & ST=x+7

then 2x = x + 7

       2x-x = 7

        x = 7

ST = x+7 = 7+7 = 14

P.S. Hope it makes sense. If you have any questions, feel free to ask them in the comments senction. I'll be happy to help. Have a wonderful day!

Mice21 [21]

Answer:

40% profit

Step by step Explanation:

Profit percentage

=( profit/cost price) * 100

0.2 = profit/cost

10+15+20+25+30= 100

Let's assume the cost price of the items is $1 each

Cost price total= $100

Profit made when buyer of 20 toffe didn't say was

0.2=profit/cost

0.2*100 =$20

If the$ 20 paid.

Total profit = $40

So percentage profit now

40/100 * 100 = 40%

If Kevin wants a 90 average in math after 5 tests and his first 4 tests are 76, 92, 89 and 97 what does he need on the fifth tes
Keith_Richards [23]
You need to understand that you're solving for the average, which you already know: 90. Since you know the values of the first three exams, and you know what your final value needs to be, just set up the problem like you would any time you're averaging something.
Solving for the average is simple:
Add up all of the exam scores and divide that number by the number of exams you took.
(87 + 88 + 92) / 3 = your average if you didn't count that fourth exam.
Since you know you have that fourth exam, just substitute it into the total value as an unknown, X:
(87 + 88 + 92 + X) / 4 = 90
Now you need to solve for X, the unknown:
87
+
88
+
92
+
X
4
(4) = 90 (4)
Multiplying for four on each side cancels out the fraction.
So now you have:
87 + 88 + 92 + X = 360
This can be simplified as:
267 + X = 360
Negating the 267 on each side will isolate the X value, and give you your final answer:
X = 93
Now that you have an answer, ask yourself, "does it make sense?"
I say that it does, because there were two tests that were below average, and one that was just slightly above average. So, it makes sense that you'd want to have a higher-ish test score on the fourth exam.

Calculate a four-day moving average for the price of the stock for the end of day 7. day 1 - 62.00; day 2 - 56.00; day 3 - 50.00
Aneli [31]

At day 7, the four-day moving average for the price of the stock would be $58.25.

<h3>What is the four-day moving average at day 7?</h3>

This can be found as:

= (Day 7 price + Day 6 + Day 5 + Day 4) / Number of days

Solving gives:

= (59 + 55 + 59 + 60) / 4

= 233 / 4

= $58.25

\text{According to the factor theorem, if f(b) = 0, then x-b is a factor of f(x).}\\\\\text{Given that,}\\\\f(x) = 2x^3 +5x^2 +4x +1 \\\\f\left(-\dfrac 12 \right) = 2\left( - \dfrac 12 \right)^3 +5 \left( - \dfrac 12 \right)^2 +4 \left( - \dfrac 12 \right) +1 \\\\\\~~~~~~~~~~~~=-2 \cdot \dfrac 18 + 5 \cdot \dfrac 14 -2 +1 \\\\\\~~~~~~~~~~~=\dfrac 54 -\dfrac14 -1\\\\\\~~~~~~~~~~~=\dfrac 44 -1 \\\\\\~~~~~~~~~~~=1-1\\\\\\~~~~~~~~~~~=0\\\\\text{So,}~ 2x +1 ~ \text{is a factor of f(x).}

\text{Now,}\\\\f(x) = 2x^3 +5x^2 +4x +1 \\\\~~~~~~=2x^3+x^2 +2x^2 +2x +2x+1\\\\~~~~~~=x^2(2x+1)  +2x(2x+1) +  (2x+1)\\\\~~~~~~=(2x+1)(x^2 +2x +1)\\\\~~~~~~=(2x+1)(x+1)^2
