Answer:

5. x = -1

6. x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

5. AB = 5

BC = 2x + 6

AC = x + 10

AB + BC = AC (segment addition postulate)

5 + 2x + 6 = x + 10 (substitution)

Collect like terms

5 + 6 + 2x = x + 10

11 + 2x = x + 10

2x - x = - 11 + 10

x = -1

6. AB = 9x + 7

BC = -3x + 20

AC = 39

AB + BC = AC (segment addition postulate)

(9x + 7) + (-3x + 20) = 39 (substitution)

Solve for x

9x + 7 - 3x + 20 = 39

Collect like terms

9x - 3x + 7 + 20 = 39

6x + 27 = 39

Subtract 27 from both sides

6x + 27 - 27 = 39 - 27

6x = 12

Divided both sides by 6

6x/6 = 12/6

x = 2

Answer:

Renata has a home loan for $150,000 at 7.5% interest for 30 years and her payment is $987.00 per month.

I have solved this using excel sheet that is attached here.

p = $150000

r = 7.5%

t = $30\times12=360$

EMI = $987

You can see the excel sheet, after first month principle is $ 149,950.50 and after second month it is $149,900.69 .

Find a potential function for F or determine that F is not conservative. (If F is not conservative, enter NOT CONSERVATIVE.) F =

xxMikexx [17]

For $F$ to be conservative, we need to have

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}=\cos z$

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}=10y$

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial z}=-x\sin z$

Integrate the first PDE with respect to $x$ :

$\displaystyle\int\frac{\partial f}{\partial x}\,\mathrm dx+\int\cos z\,\mathrm dx\implies f(x,y,z)=x\cos z+g(y,z)$

Differentiate with respect to $y$ :

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}=10y=\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial y}\implies g(y,z)=5y^2+h(z)$

Now differentiate $f$ with respect to $z$ :

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial z}=-x\sin z=-x\sin z+\dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dz}\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dz}=0\implies h(z)=C$

So we have

$f(x,y,z)=x\cos z+5y^2+C$

so $F$ is indeed conservative.
