To solve this, you can set up an equation. Make the length of the shortest side x, so the 2 sides double the length will equal 2x. Since they all equal the perimeter of 36, do x + 2x + 2x =36. These values all represent the sides(2 longer, one short). Combine like terms to get 5x=36 then divide by 5 to find the value of x. x=7.2in meaning the shorter side is 7.2 inches while the longer sides are both 14.4 inches each since they are double in size.

Which diagram shows parallel lines cut by a transversal?
Arada [10]
Only the third model shows parallel lines cut by a transversal. 

We can solve this problem by using some properties that parallel lines cut by a transversal have. First of all, corresponding angles are congruent, and since the angles in figure 1 are corresponding but not congruent, that means that figure one is out. 

In addition, in figure two, alternate exterior and interior angles of parallel lines intersected by a transversal are congruent, so since they are not in the picture, that means that this figure is also out. 

Figure three is correct because since those are same side interior angles, they need to be supplementary for those to be two parallel lines intersected by a transversal. Since they do, in fact, add up to 180°, that means that the answer is figure three.

CONDITIONAL: If 2x + 1 = 25, then x = 12. INVERSE: if 2x + 1 /=25, then x /= 12 is the inverse of the conditional false or true?
exis [7]
True because if you do 2 x 12 that will equal 24. Then it says +1 so it will be 25. So, it's true.

If $48,000 is invested in an account earning 3.1% interest compounded continuously, determine how long it will
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

It will take about 35.439  years to triple.

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall the formula for continuously compounded interest:

A=P\,e^{r*t}

where "A" is the total (accrued or future) accumulated value, "r" is the rate (in our case 0.031 which is the decimal form of 3.1%), "P" is the principal, and "t" is the time in years (our unknown).

Notice also that even that the final amount we want to get is three times $48,000. So our formula becomes:

3\,*\,48,000=\,48,000\,\,e^{0.031\,*t}\\\frac{3\,*\,48,000}{48,000} =e^{0.031*t}\\3=e^{0.031*t}

Now,in order to solve for "t" (which is in the exponent, we use logarithms:

ln(3)=0.031\,*\,t\\t=\frac{ln(3)}{0.031} \\t=35.439 \,\,years
