Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

let n be least.

3n-12=4(n+n+2)

3n-12=8n+8

3n-8n=8+12

-5 n=20

n=-4

lesya [120]

<span>The amount P as a function of t (in years) is given by

P(t) = P0 (1 + r/n)^(t n)

So if n = 4, and r = 0.02, and P0 = 1000, then

P(t) = 1000 (1 + 0.02/4)^(4 t) = 1000 (1 + 0.005)^(4 t)

At the end of the first quarter, t = 1/4, so

P(1/4) = $1000 (1.005)^(1) = $1005

At the end of the second quarter, t = 1/2 , therefore

P(1/2) = $1000 (1.005)^(2) = $1000 (1.010025) = $1010.03

At the end of the third quarter , t = 3/4, therefore

P(3/4) = $1000 (1.005)^(3) = $1000 (1.015075125) = $1015.08

At the end of the year, t = 4, therefore

P(1) = $1000 (1.005)^4 = $1000 (1.020150500625) = $1020.15

As for the second question, after the first period (quarter),
the formula becomes

P = P0 (1.005)^1 = 1.005 P0

which is choice A. </span>

Please Find the distance between the two points rounding to the nearest tenth (if necessary).

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

10.29 u

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given :- </u>

Two points (7,4) and (-2,9) is given to us.

And we need to find out the distance between the two points . So , here we can use the distance formula to find out the distance. As,

$:\implies$ D = √{(x2-x1)² + (y2-y1)²}

$:\implies$ D =√[ (7+2)² +(9-4)²]

$:\implies$ D =√[ 9² +5²]

$:\implies$ D =√[ 81 +25]

$:\implies$ D = 10.29

<h3>Hence the distance between the two points is 10.29 units .</h3>

What are the numerical measures of each angle in the diagram? 1 and 3 measure degrees. 2 and 4 measure degrees. (3x - 1)º (2x +

Tanya [424]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In the diagram shown, the measure of angle 1 is oppositely directed to angle 2 and oppositely directed angles are equal.

Hence <1 = <3

Given < 1 = 3x-1 and <3 = 2x+9

Hence 3x-1 = 2x+9

collect like terms

3x-2x = 9+1

x = 10°

Since <1 = 3x-1

on substituting x = 10

<1 = 3(10)-1

<1 = 30-1

<1 = 29°

<1+<2 = 180 (angle on a straight line)

29+<2 = 180

<2 = 180-29

<2 = 151°

Similarly, on substituting x = 10 into <3

<3 = 2x+9

<3 = 2(10)+9

<3 = 20+9

<3 = 29°

<3+<4 = 180 (angle on a straight line)

29+<4 = 180

<4 = 180-29

<4 = 151°
