Set up the following equation for this segment:

x is segment AB's length, and 3x is segment BC's length. 20 is segment AC's length.

Combine like terms:

Divide both sides by 4 to get x by itself:

x will equal 5.

Plug this value into the values for both segments:

Segment AB:

Segment AB is 5 inches long.

Segment BC:

Segment BC is 15 inches long.

Find the area. Simplify your answer.
Shalnov [3]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  x^2 +8x +12

Step-by-step explanation:

The area is the product of length and width. The product can be simplified using the distributive property.

  A = LW

  A = (x +6)(x +2) = x(x +2) +6(x +2)

  A = x^2 +2x +6x +12

  A = x^2 +8x +12

Bob neff, owner of an automotive dealership, pays one of his salesmen, mike, a $1,300 draw per week plus 6% on all commission sa
Sedaia [141]

Draw per week = $1,300

Draw for four weeks = 1300 x 4 = $5,200

Four week sales amount = $186,900

6% commission on sales = 0.06 x 186,900 = $11,214

<span>Thus the amount equal to mike’s commission minus the draw = 11,214 – 5,200 = $6,014</span>

A pair of shoes costs $70.00. How much will the customer pay after 7% sales tax is added to the purchase?
ANEK [815]

Answer:

$74.90

Step-by-step explanation:

If $70 is your original price, you would need to multiply it by 1.07, because that is 107%.

Since the original price is 100% of the price, and sales tax is another 7% of the price, you are multiplying the original price by 107%, again making $74.90.

Find tan2θ if θ terminates in Quadrant IV and cosθ =3/5 .
Liula [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is  \frac{-8}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

cos Ф = 3/5

tan2Ф = ?

Quadrant IV

Process

1.- Remember that tanФ = \frac{Opposite side}{Adjacent side}  and cos Ф = \frac{adjacent side}{hypotenuse}

then,    adjacent side = 3 and hypotenuse = 5

2.- Calculate opposite side

             O² = h² - a²

             O² = 5² - 3²

             O² = 25 - 9

              O² = 16

              O = 4

3.- Calculate the tan 2Ф

            tan 2Ф = 2(\frac{-4}{3})       The opposite side is negative in the fourth

                                           quadrangle

            tan 2Ф = \frac{-8}{3}
