You wanna write an equation to find out what the two lengths will be. Because the string in 17 feet the equation has to equal 17. Then for the shorter length you need to symbolize it with a variable (x). For the longer side it is the smaller number plus five(x+5).

Therefore, the equation is x+(x+5)=17

from there you get x= 6ft   which leaves the longer side equaling 11ft

Heidi Muir, a sporting goods wholesaler, purchased goods from a supplier for $3,400. The
Lena [83]

Answer:

56.44%

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we have the following values

% Discount = 3%

Full allowed payment days = 30 days

Discount days = 10 days

1 year = 365 days

The formula for Effective Annual rate or Annual rate in effect =

Discount %/(1-Discount %) x (365 days/(Full allowed payment days - Discount days))

= 3%/(1 - 3%) × (365 days/30 days - 10 days)

= 0.03/(1 - 0.03) × (365/20)

= 0.03/0.97 × (365/20)

= 0.5644329897

Converting to percentage

0.5644329897 × 100

= 56.44329897%

Approximately = 56.44%

Therefore, the annual rate Heidi, in effect, is paying the supplier if she fails to pay the invoice at the end of the discount period is 56.44%

A submarine is searching for underwater features. It is accompanied by a small aircraft
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

255 m

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given question, the surface of the water body is the reference point. And this point is assumed to be 0, so that any distance above it is positive, and any distance below is negative. This is synonymous to the number line system.

Thus,

For the aircraft, its height = +200 m

For the submarine, its depth = -55 m

So that the difference between the submarine and aircraft can be determined as;

200 - (-55)

= 200 + 55

= 255 m

The distance between the submarine and aircraft is 255 m.
