We know that

y=(2/3)x
in the tangent at the circle at the point G
x+y=45 in-------> x+(2/3)x=45-------> (5/3)x=45------> x=45*3/5----> x=27 in
y=45-x-----> y=45-27------> y=18 in

in the tangent at the circle at the point B
z+y=39
z=39-y-------> z=39-18-----> z=21 in

in the tangent at the circle at the point F
z+x=48
so
21+27=48
so
48=48------> is ok

the answer is
x=27 in
y=18 in
z=21 in

You purchase a car using a $20,000 loan with a 5% simple interest rate.
hammer [34]
Simple interest = Cost Price + (Interest Percentage of Cost Price × number of years or months we are paying off)

a) SI = £20 000 + (5% of £20 000 × 4)
SI = £20 000 + (£1000 × 4)
SI = £20 000 + £4000 = £24 000

b) SI = £20 000 + (5% of £20 000 × 3)
SI = £20 000 + (£1000 × 3)
SI = £20 000 + £3000 = £23 000

£24 000 - £23 000 = £1000 that you saved!

what is the point-slope form of the equation of the line passing through the points (–6, –4) and (2, –5).
ioda

Answer:

The equation of the line would be y + 4 = -1/8(x + 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the point-slope form of the line, start by finding the slope. You can do this using the slope formula below along with the two points.

m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (-4 - -5)/(-6 - 2)

m = 1/-8

m = -1/8

Now that we have the slope, we can use that along with one of the points in the base form of point-slope.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y + 4 = -1/8(x + 6)

How many lines of symmetry does a regular decagon have?<br><br> 8<br><br> 10<br><br> 11<br><br> 12
bixtya [17]
The number of sides is the same as the number of lines of symmetry and the order of rotational symmetry.

So, a regular decagon would have 10 lines of symmetry.
