Answer in fraction form: x = 55/4
Answer in decimal form: x = 13.75
Both forms are equivalent, but they say it in a slightly different way.
===========================================================
Work Shown:
AC/QY = CD/YW
(x+5)/15 = 5/4
4(x+5) = 15*5
4x+20 = 75
4x = 75-20
4x = 55
x = 55/4
x = 13.75
------------
Explanations:
- The first step is possible because the polygons are similar. Similar figures have their corresponding sides be in the same proportion or ratio. Note how side AC has the double red angle (at point A) and a single red angle (point C). The side QY has the same idea in the same order. This is why AC corresponds to QY. The ratio AC/QY is the same as CD/YW.
- In the second step, I plugged in the expressions that the diagram shows. This is the substitution property.
- On step 3, I cross multiplied. The general format is A/B = C/D cross multiplies to A*D = B*C.
Change 1.2%into decimal you will get 0.012
then multiply 350 by 0.012 you got the answer
then add the 0.012 with the 10 you will get 10.012
at the end round your answer to the whole number
Answer:
My age is 78 years.
Explanation:
Define my age first as a variable.
Let my age be

Step-by-step explanation:
B, 4% .
Find this by using the Interest Formula:
I = P X R X T
I = 7500 X .OO4 X 3
I = 900
