Answer:

By solving the equation \frac{1}{6}(x-5)=\frac{1}{2}(x+6) we found that   x=\frac{23}{2} \text { or }=11 \frac{1}{2}

<u>Explanation:  </u>

Given equation,

\frac{1}{6}(x-5)=\frac{1}{2}(x+6) to find x  

Step: 1 Cross multiply the denominators 2(x-5)=6(x+6)  

Step: 2 Open brackets and simplify the term 2x-10=6x+36  

Step: 3 Bring x terms on one side and simplify the equation the equation obtained is following,  

2x-6x=36+10

 -4x=46  

-x=\frac{46}{4}=\frac{23}{2}=11 \frac{1}{2}

Therefore, we solved x value from the given equation \frac{1}{6}(x-5)=\frac{1}{2}(x+6) as x=\frac{23}{2} \text { or }=11 \frac{1}{2}.

This is a compound interest problem, therefore s(t) should be in the form:
s(t) = a(r)^{t}

where: 
t = time in years
s(t) = the value of your item after t years
a = the initial value of your item
r = rate

Therefore, we already know that a = 245$.

Now, we can calculate r:
r^{t}=\frac{s}{a}
r =  \sqrt[t]{ \frac{s}{a} }
r = \sqrt[5]{ \frac{560.50}{245} }
     = 1.18

Therefore, the correct answers are a = 245 and r = 1.18

What are the coordinates of R' for the dilation D(0.5. p)(PQRS)?
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

R' = (-1,-0.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

See attachment for complete question.

From the attachment:

P = (-3,-3)

R = (1,2)

Dilation:

D_{(0.5,P)}

Required

Determine R'

First, subtract the coordinates of P from R. This means that R is measured from P.

R = (1-(-3),2-(-3))

R = (1+3,2+3)

R = (4,5)

Next, apply dilation factor 0.5

R' = R * 0.5

R' = (4,5) * 0.5

R' = (4* 0.5,5* 0.5)

R' = (2,2.5)

Lastly, measure R' from the origin by adding the coordinates of P to R'

R' = (2+(-3),2.5+(-3))

R' = (2-3,2.5-3)

R' = (-1,-0.5)
