28 is a multiple of 7 and also a factor of seven!
With the facts you got here, you can make the following equation:
x*(x+2)=24
x^2+2x=24
x^2+2x-24=0
Then you can use the following formula (which you might have seen before):
x = (-b +/- sqrt(b^2-4ac))/2a
where
ax^2+bx+c=0
(-2 +/- sqrt(4+96))/2
(-2 +/- 10)/2
x_1 = 4
x_2 = -6
Answer: dilation
Step-by-step explanation:
the others are rigid transformations, the can’t change the size of the triangle.
The first answer
Step by step
His first year costs $8,000
So our total amount to start with is $8,000
His second year will cost 12% more than his first so $8,000 • 1.12 = $8,960
Our total is now $16,960
His third year will again will be 12% more than his last year so $8,960 • 1.12 = 10,035.2
Our total is now $26,995.2
His last year will be 12% more than his previous year so $10,035.2 • 1.12 = $11,239.42
Our final total is $38,234.62
Which rounded equals $38,235
