Sue initially has 5 hours of pop music and 4 hours of classical music in her collection. Every month onwards, the hours of pop m

usic in her collection is 25% more than what she had the previous month. Her classical music does not change. Which function shows the total hours of music she will have in her collection after x months?a. f(x) = 4(1.25)x + 5
b. f(x) = 5(1.25)x + 4
c. f(x) = 4(0.25)x + 5
d. f(x) = 5(0.25)x + 4

<h2>Answer</h2>

f(x) = 5(1.25)x + 4

<h2>Explanation</h2>

To solve this, we are going to use the standard exponential equation:

f(x)=a(1+b)^x

where

a is the initial amount

b is the growth rate in decimal form

x is the time (in months for our case)

Since the hours of classic music remain constant, we just need to add them at the end. We know form our problem that Sue initially has 5 hours of pop, so a=5; we also know that every month onward, the hours of pop music in her collection is 25% more than what she had the previous month, so b=\frac{25}{100} =0.25. Now let's replace the values in our function:

f(x)=a(1+b)^x

f(x)=5(1+0.25)^x

f(x)=5(1.25)^x

Now we can add the hours of classical music to complete our function:

f(x)=5(1.25)^x+5

It isn't A because if it was Pop music that doesn't change, it would be in the end of the equation. Because if you multiply the 1.25 by classical, that means it changes to a different number other than 4. But it can't change. Pop can then.

It is B. f(x)=5(1.15)^x+4. Hope this helps!

Answer:

m∠2=35°, m∠1=35°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠2 and ∠4 equal 180° when added, so 180-145=35

all angles of a triangle equal 180°, so 180-∠3-∠2=∠1

180-110-35= 35

Find the value of x in the triangle shown below. x = 56° 99°​
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

x = 25 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

All angles in a triangle should add up to 180 degrees. So to solve for x, set up an equation where all three angles added up equals 180.

180 = 99 + 56 + x

180 = 155 + x

25 = x

The unknown angle is equal to 25 degrees.

Uv = 8 and wx=5 find the missing measure of a rhombus
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

  • TU = UV = VW = WT = 8
  • WX = UX = 5
  • XV = XT = √39

Step-by-step explanation:

At first we should know the following about the rhombus

1) All sides are congruent

2) The diagonals are perpendicular and bisects each other.

Given UV = 8 and WX = 5

So, according to (1)

TU = UV = VW = WT = 8

And according to (2)

WX = UX = 5

And ΔWXV is a right triangle at ∠x

So, XV² = WV² - WX² = 8² - 5² = 64 - 25 = 39

∴XV = √39

So, XV = XT = √39

So, the missing measure of a rhombus are as following:

  • TU = UV = VW = WT = 8
  • WX = UX = 5
  • XV = XT = √39
