Answer:

model: 
profit in year 2017: 
Step-by-step explanation:
The sales increased from 2 billion dollars to 146 billion dollars in five years, so to find the increase in billion dollars per year, we just need to divide the increase by the amount of time:

To construct a model for these sales, we can use the year 2003 as the initial point of a linear equation:

the variable y will represent the profit in billion dollars, the variable x will represent our time, so we can use (t - 2003) in its place to represent the number of years since 2003 (t is the year we want to calculate), the constant 'a' will be our rate of 28.8, and the constant 'b' is the inicial value for the year 2003, that is, 2 (billions). So we have:

In the year 2017, we would have:



Answer:
y = 10°
x = 64°
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallelogram is a quadrilateral with the opposite sides parallel to each other. Opposite sides are equal in length. Opposite angles are equal in a parallelogram.
For the figure to be a parallelograms, since opposite angle are equal
12y + 8 = 2x
2x - 12y = 8 ...................(i)
2x + 5y + 2 = 180(supplementary angle)
2x + 5y = 178..............(ii)
combine the equation
2x - 12y = 8 ...................(i)
2x + 5y = 178..............(ii)
make x subject of the formula in equation (i)
2x - 12y = 8 ...................(i)
2x = 8 + 12y
x = 4 + 6y
put the value of x in equation (ii)
2x + 5y = 178..............(ii)
2(4 + 6y) + 5y = 178
8 + 12y + 5y = 178
8 + 17y = 178
17y = 170
divide both sides by 17
y = 170/17
y = 10°
Put the value of y in equation (i)
2x - 12y = 8 ...................(i)
2x - 12(10) = 8
2x - 120 = 8
2x = 128
x = 128/2
x = 64°
This is usually used as a proof that triangles have 180°. Look at the attached figures. If you cut off angle A, angle B and angle C and rotate them so that their vertices touch, you form a half-circle out of them (or a straight line). We know that half a circle is 1/2 of 360° or 180; therefore all 3 angles in a triangle must add up to 180°.
The answer is A
8.5% sales tax + 38.00= $41.23 x 5 (shirts)= $206.15
