If a<span> is less than </span>b<span>, and they are both positive, then </span>a<span> is closer to 0 than </span>b<span>. The opposite of </span>a<span> is also closer to zero than the opposite of </span>b<span>, so the opposite of a must be larger than the opposite of </span>b. T<span>he number further left on a number line is the smaller number, for positive numbers, the number closest to zero is smaller.</span>

Will mark brainliest. Include explanation.
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

D. 4x + 32; E. 4(x + 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is none. This problem is incorrect. The perimeter of a polygon is the sum of the lengths of all the sides. A perimeter is a length, not an area. A perimeter is expressed in feet, not square feet.

Ignoring the "square feet" part, once again, the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides. Since this is a square, all sides have the same length, and there are 4 sides.

perimeter = 4s

perimeter = 4(x + 8) = 4x + 32

If the effective annual interest rate of a loan is 14.6%, what is the nominal annual interest rate, correct to one decimal
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

13.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Nominal interest rate = (\sqrt[m]{1 + effective annual interest rate} - 1 \ ) m  

where m = number of compounding = 12

(\sqrt[12]{1.146} - 1 ) x 12 = 0.137054 = 13.7%

To round to one decimal place means that there should be only one figure after the decimal place.
