Answer:

The height of rectangle is 5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The correct question is</em></u>

A rectangle is drawn so the width is 7 inches longer than the height. If the rectangle’s diagonal measurement is 13 inches, Find the height

Let

x -----> the width of the rectangle in inches

y ----> the height of the rectangle in inches

d ---> diagonal measurement of the rectangle in inches

we know that

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

d^2=x^{2}+y^{2}

we have

d=13\ in

so

13^2=x^{2}+y^{2}

169=x^{2}+y^{2} ----> equation A

x=y+7 ---> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A

169=(y+7)^{2}+y^{2}

solve for y

169=y^2+14y+49+y^{2}

2y^2+14y+49-169=0

2y^2+14y-120=0

solve the quadratic equation by graphing

using a graphing tool

The solution is y=5

see the attached figure

therefore

The height of rectangle is 5 inches

Answer:

Part a. t = 7.29 years.

Part b. t = 27.73 years.

Part c. p = $3894.00

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for continuous compounding is: A = p*e^(rt); where A is the amount after compounding, p is the principle, e is the mathematical constant (2.718281), r is the rate of interest, and t is the time in years.

Part a. It is given that p = $2000, r = 2.5%, and A = $2400. In this part, t is unknown. Therefore: 2400 = 2000*e^(2.5t). This implies 1.2 = e^(0.025t). Taking natural logarithm on both sides yields ln(1.2) = ln(e^(0.025t)). A logarithmic property is that the power of the logarithmic expression can be shifted on the left side of the whole expression, thus multiplying it with the expression. Therefore, ln(1.2) = 0.025t*ln(e). Since ln(e) = 1, and making t the subject gives t = ln(1.2)/0.025. This means that t = 7.29 years (rounded to the nearest 2 decimal places)!!!

Part b. It is given that p = $2000, r = 2.5%, and A = $4000. In this part, t is unknown. Therefore: 4000 = 2000*e^(2.5t). This implies 2 = e^(0.025t). Taking natural logarithm on both sides yields ln(2) = ln(e^(0.025t)). A logarithmic property is that the power of the logarithmic expression can be shifted on the left side of the whole expression, thus multiplying it with the expression. Therefore, ln(2) = 0.025t*ln(e). Since ln(e) = 1, and making t the subject gives t = ln(2)/0.025. This means that t = 27.73 years (rounded to the nearest 2 decimal places)!!!

Part c. It is given that A = $5000, r = 2.5%, and t = 10 years. In this part, p is unknown. Therefore 5000 = p*e^(0.025*10). This implies 5000 = p*e^(0.25). Making p the subject gives p = 5000/e^0.25. This means that p = $3894.00(rounded to the nearest 2 decimal places)!!!

You have 12 1/3 yards and you need 47 yards how many more yards of fabric do you need
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

34 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

You need 47 yards. You have 12 1/3

47 - 12 1/3. So we'll break it down.

47 - 12 = 35.

Now, 35 + 12 1/3 would make 47 1/3

So now 35 - 1/3=34 2/3

34 2/3 + 12 1/3 = 47

Question 2 Multiple Choice Worth 1 points)
Tomtit [17]

Answer: "Subtract 6 from both sides, and then divide by 2. The solution is x = 8"

Step-by-step explanation: Lets solve for 2x + 6 = 22

Step 1 Subtract 6 from both sides: 2x + 6 - 6 = 22 - 6                       2x = 16

Step 2 Divide by 2 in both sides: 2x/2 = 16/2

Step 3 The answer: x = 8
