Answer:
5x -12 = 3x +8 (set the two = each other because they are the same length)
2x- 12= 8 (subtract 3x from both sides)
2x = 20 (add 12 to both sides)
x=10 (what x= for both expressions)
5(10) -12 (plug it into the first one to see what the length is and to see they're =
50 - 12 ( I already multiplied, now subtract)
38 (what the length of TR is)
3(10) +8 (plug it in again but into the other expression)
30+8 (multiply and add)
38 (the two have the same answer, so the x-value is correct.)
38+38= 76 (add the lengths of RS and TR and you get the length of TS)
Step-by-step explanation:
I hope this helps :)
Is there any more to the question? i’m confused
Yes, i have to make this answer longer so this is- you know.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
First, converting R percent to r a decimal
r = R/100 = 4.2%/100 = 0.042 per year,
then, solving our equation
I = 16500 × 0.042 × 5 = 3465
I = $ 3,465.00
The simple interest accumulated
on a principal of $ 16,500.00
at a rate of 4.2% per year
for 5 years is $ 3,465.00.
