Answer:

option (c) 475

Step-by-step explanation:

let the automobile installment credit be 'C'

Given:.

Automobile installment credit accounted for 36 percent of all outstanding consumer installment credit

Now,

57 billion is \frac{1}{3} of automobile installment credit

or

57 billion = \frac{1}{3} × C

or

C = 57 × 3

or

C = 171 billion

now,

installment credit accounted = 36% of all outstanding consumer installment credit

or

171 billion = 0.36 × all outstanding consumer installment credit

or

All outstanding consumer installment credit = $475 billion

Hence, the correct answer is option (c) 475

A coin purse contains d dimes and q quarters.There are 20 coins in the purse and the total value of the coins is $4.25.which sys
mel-nik [20]
25q + 10d = 425
q + d = 20

First thing's first, picture 4 quarters. Do you know how much these 4 quarters are worth? Obviously, you'd answer one dollar, but take the time to think about how exactly you came up with this answer.

"Well, it's simple," you might think, "Multiply 0.25 by 4."

Similar to this train of thought, the first equation is formulated by doing exactly that. 'q' represents an unknown number of quarters, and 'd' an unknown number of dimes. We use 25q and 10d, because, well, we're multiplying their value by the number of coins. They're equivalent to 425 because the 20 unknown coins make $4.25 (I converted it to cents to get rid of the pesky decimals, but if you want to keep it as dollars that works too).

Because the equation states that there are 20 coins in total, we know that we can make the equation 'q + d = 20' since there are 20 quarters and dimes in total.

Let me know if you need any further explanation :)

What do u mean by Trigonometry ?

Trigonometry (from Greek trigōnon, "triangle" and metron, "measure") is a branch of mathematics that studies relationships between side lengths and angles of triangles. The field emerged in the Hellenistic world during the 3rd century BC from applications of geometry to astronomical studies. The Greeks focused on the calculation of chords, while mathematicians in India created the earliest-known tables of values for trigonometric ratios (also called trigonometric functions) such as sine.

Throughout history, trigonometry has been applied in areas such as geodesy, surveying, celestial mechanics, and navigation.

Trigonometry is known for its many identities. These trigonometric identities are commonly used for rewriting trigonometrical expressions with the aim to simplify an expression, to find a more useful form of an expression, or to solve an equation.

Hope it helps!

Which is the solution to 5^x=8^x-7
Levart [38]

Answer:

C) 30.9702

Step-by-step explanation:

Take log of both sides:

In5^x = In8^x - 7

Rewrite it using the laws of log:

xIn5 = (x - 7)In8

x / (x - 7)  =  ln 8 / ln 5

x / (x - 7) = 1.292

x = 1.292x - 9.044

1.292x - x = 9.044

x = 9.044 / 0.292

Thus, x = 30.9702
