Let the amount he invested in the 5% rate be x and the one in the 7.5% rate be y, then
x + y = 10000 . . . (1)
0.05x = 0.075y . . . (2)

From (2), x = 0.075y/0.05 = 1.5y . . . (3)

Putting (3) into (1) gives
1.5y + y = 10000
2.5y = 10000
y = 10000/2.5 = 4000
x = 1.5(4000) = 6000

Therefore, he invested $6,000 in the secure GIC at 5% and $4,000 in the mutual fund.

Given a || b , and c is not parallel to a or b, which statements
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

C. m∠4 = m∠8

D. m∠2 = m∠7

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we use the principles of alternate angles, corresponding angles and vertically opposite angles to confirm which of the statements are true. Alternate angles are always equal, corresponding angles are equal, likewise vertically opposite angles.

From the given question, it was given that a is parallel to b. Thus, it can be observed and deduced that;

m∠4 = m∠8  (corresponding angles)

and

m∠2 = m∠3 (vertically opposite angles)

m∠3 = m∠7 (corresponding angles)

So that,

m∠2 = m∠7  

Thus in the question, statements C and D are true.

A student thinks that the regular pentagon in the diagram
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The student must have thought that every single arrowhead is a line of symmetry, so since there are 10 arrowheads, there must be 10 lines of symmetry. This is incorrect because if you look closely at the diagram, each line has 2 arrowheads, so the student is overcounting by a factor of 2. They should have just counted the number of lines, not arrowheads. Therefore, there must be 10/2 = 5 lines of symmetry, not 10. Hope this helps!
