Answer: C. 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : An investment is currently worth 2.125\times10^4 dollars . Ten years ago, the investment was worth 1.25\times10^3 dollars.

Then, the number of times the value of the investment today is greater than the value of the investment ten years ago is given by :-

\dfrac{\text{Current investment}}{\text{\text{Yen years ago investment}}}\\\\=\dfrac{2.125\times10^4}{1.25\times10^3}\\\\=\dfrac{2.125}{1.25}\times10^{4-3}\ \ [\because a^m\times a^n=a^{m+n}]\\\\=1.7\times10=17

Hence, the value of the investment today is 17 times greater than the value of the investment ten years ago .

Find the area of an isosceles trapezoid, if the lengths of its bases are 16 cm, and 30 cm, and the diagonals are perpendicular t
Klio2033 [76]
For this case we have:
 a = 30 cm
 c = 16 cm
 We look for the length of the diagonal:
 d = x + y
 Where,
 For x:
 a ^ 2 = x ^ 2 + x ^ 2
 x = a / root (2) = 30 / root (2) = 21.2132 cm
 For y:
 c ^ 2 = y ^ 2 + y ^ 2
 y = c / root (2) = 16 / root (2) = 11.3137 cm
 The diagonal is:
 d = x + y
 d = 21.2132 + 11.3137
 d = 32.5269 cm
 Then, the height is:
 h = h1 + h2
 For h1:
 h1 = root (x ^ 2 - (a / 2) ^ 2) = root ((21.2132) ^ 2 - (30/2) ^ 2)
 h1 = 15 cm
 For h2:
 h2 = root (y ^ 2 - (c / 2) ^ 2) = root ((11.3137) ^ 2 - (16/2) ^ 2)
 h2 = 8 cm
 Finally:
 h = h1 + h2
 h = 15 + 8
 h = 23 cm
 Then, the area is:
 A = (1/2) * (a + c) * (h)
 A = (1/2) * (30 + 16) * (23)
 A = 529 cm ^ 2
 Answer:
 
the area of an isosceles trapezoid is:
 
A = 529 cm ^ 2

In the figure below, mMNO=83*. Find mMLO
sergey [27]

Answer:

166degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the theorem which states that the angle at the vertex is twice the angle at the intercepted arc

Angle at the vertex <MNO = 83degrees

Angle at the arc =  m<MLO

According to the theorem

83 = 1/2(m<MLO)

m<MLO = 83 * 2

m<MLO = 166degrees

Hence the measure of angle MLO is 166degrees
