Answer:
BC = 35
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the segments is the overall length.
AB +BC = AC
(2x +6) + (6x +5) = 51 . . . . substitute given values
8x +11 = 51 . . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms
8x = 40 . . . . . . . subtract 11
x = 5 . . . . . . . . . divide by 8
BC = 6x+5 = 6(5) +5 . . . . . . . . use the value of x to find BC
BC = 35
The correct answer is the last choice
If she has 10/12 and uses 8/12 then you just subtract.
Since the denominators are the same you just subtract 10-8 and get 2
the denominator is the same for your answers and so it is
2/12
The Solution.
In 1966, which is the initial year(t); t = 0, and minimum wage(y), y = $1.25
Similarly.
In 2015, t = 49 years , (that is, 1966 to 2015), and y = $8.75
The rate of growth to the nearest percent is
Substituting into the formula above, we get
Hence, the correct answer is 15%
