keeping in mind that 3 months is not even a year, but since there are 12 months in a year, 3 months is really 3/12 years, therefore,


\bf ~~~~~~ \textit{Simple Interest Earned} \\\\ I = Prt\qquad \begin{cases} I=\textit{interest earned}\dotfill&100\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\\ r=rate\to 4\%\to \frac{4}{100}\dotfill &0.04\\ t=years\to \frac{3}{12}\dotfill &\frac{1}{4} \end{cases} \\\\\\ 100=P\left( 0.04\cdot \frac{1}{4} \right)\implies 100=P(0.01)\implies \cfrac{100}{0.01}=P\implies 10000=P

The angle measurements in the diagram are represented by the following expressions.
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

x=10

A = 84

Step-by-step explanation:

A and B are supplementary angles so they add to 180 degrees

A + B =180

2x+76 + 5x+34 = 180

Combine like terms

7x+ 110 = 180

7x+110-110 = 180-110

7x = 70

Divide by 7

x = 10

Now find A

A = 5x+34

A = 5*10 +34

  = 50+34

A = 84
