In triangle FEG pointH is between points E and F Point J is between points F and G and HJ is parallel to EG EH equals 14 HF equa

ls 26 and FG equals 60 what is FJ

Mathematics

Answer:

FJ=39\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and its corresponding angles are congruent

In this problem

△FEG is similar with △FHJ -----> by AA Similarity Theorem

so

\frac{FE}{FH}=\frac{FG}{FJ}

we have

FE=HF+EH=26+14=40\ units

FH=HF=26\ units

FG=60\ units

substitute the given values

\frac{40}{26}=\frac{60}{FJ}

FJ=26(60)/40\\FJ=39\ units

How long will it take for an investment to triple if it is compounded continuously at 12%
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

9.694 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the investment is $P.

So, we are asked to determine the time it will grow to triple with the compound interest rate of 12%.

Let the time is y years.

So, from the formula of compound interest we can write

3P = P(1 + \frac{12}{100} )^{y}

⇒ (1 + \frac{12}{100} )^{y} = 3

⇒ (1.12)^{y} = 3

Now, taking log both sides we get,

y log 1.12 = log 3 {Since, \log a^{b} = b \log a }

⇒ 0.04922y = 0.477712

⇒ y = 9.694 years (Answer)

Se vende2 usb en 60 soles cada uno. En una se ganó el 20% y en la otra se perdió el 20% ¿Se ganó o se perdió en total y cuánto?
aniked [119]
Voy a responder en el mismo idioma en que está la pregunta.

1) Venta con ganancia

Precio de venta 60 soles.

Ganancia = 20% del costo => costo + 0,20 * costo =  precio

=> costo (1 + 0,20) = precio = 60 soles

=> costo (1,20) = 60 soles => costo = 60 soles / 1,20 = 50 soles

2) Venta con pérdida del 20%

Pérdida = 20% del costo

=> costo - precio = 20% * costo => costo - 0,20*costo = precio

=> costo ( 1 - 0,20) = 60 soles => costo * 0,80 = 60 soles

=> costo = 60 soles / 0,80 = 75 soles

3) Costo total = 50 soles + 75 soles = 125 soles

4) Ganancia total = valor total de venta - costo total

Ganancia total = 2 * 60 soles + 125 soles = 120 soles - 125 soles = - 5 soles.

El signo negativo significa que al final se perdió 5 soles en la operación.

Among 9 electrical components exactly one is known not to function properly. if 4 components are randomly selected, find the pro
seraphim [82]

Answer:

0.4444

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the following property to ease the calculation:

P(At least one)=1-P(None)

Total number of electrical components: 9

Number that does not function well :1

Number that functions well : 8

We have ^8C_4=70 ways to to choose 4 good components from 8.

We have ^9C_4=126 ways to choose 4 components from a total of 9.

If all function properly then none is bad, we ^1C_0=1 way to do this.

P(At least one)=1-\frac{^8C_4*^1C_0}{^9C_4}

P(At least one)=1-\frac{70*1}{126}

P(At least one)=0.4444
