Answer:

2a +2b +4

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the sum of the lengths of the three sides. If x represents the length of the third side, then ...

(3a +8) +(5a +b) +x = (10a +3b +12)

Subtracting from the equation everything on the left side that is not x, we get ...

x = (10a +3b +12) -(3a +8) -(5a +b)

= a(10 -3 -5) +b(3 -1) +(12 -8)

= 2a +2b +4

The length of the third side is 2a +2b +4.

You are planning to invest $5000 in an account earning 9% per year for retirement. a. If you put the $5000 in an account at age

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

A).Amount = $218250

B). Amount = $88700

Step-by-step explanation:

A) .$5000 in an account at age 23, and withdraw it 42 years

Number of years t= 42 years

Principal P = $5000

Rate r= 9%

Number of times compounded n= 42

A= p(1+r/n)^(nt)

A= 5000(1+0.09/42)^(42*42)

A= 5000(1+0.002143)^(1764)

A= 5000(1.002143)^1764

A= 5000(43.65)

A= 218250

Amount = $218250

B).waits 10 years before making the deposit, so that it stays in the account for only 32 years

Number of years t= 32 years

Principal P = $5000

Rate r= 9%

Number of times compounded n= 32

A= p(1+r/n)^(nt)

A= 5000(1+0.09/32)^(32*32)

A= A= 5000(1+0.0028125)^(1024)

A= 5000(1.0028125)^1024

A= 5000(17.74)

A= 88700

Amount = $88700

One end of a line segment has the coordinates (-6,2). If

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

The coordinates of the other end is $(16,2)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$End 1: (-6,2)$

$Midpoint: (5,2)$

Required

Find the coordinates of the other end

Let Midpoint be represented by (x,y);

(x,y) = (5,2) is calculated as thus

$(x,y) = (\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2},\frac{y_1 + y_2}{2})$

$x = \frac{x_1 + x_2}{2}$ and $y = \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2}$

Where $(x_1,y_1) = (-6,2)$ and $(x,y) = (5,2)$

So, we're solving for $(x_2,y_2)$

Solving for $x_2$

$x = \frac{x_1 + x_2}{2}$

Substitute 5 for x and -6 for x₁

$5 = \frac{-6 + x_2}{2}$

Multiply both sides by 2

$2 * 5 = \frac{-6 + x_2}{2} * 2$

$10 = -6 + x_2$

Add 6 to both sides

$6 + 10 = -6 +6 + x_2$

$x_2 = 16$

Solving for $y_2$

$y = \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2}$

Substitute 2 for y and 2 for y₁

$2 = \frac{2 + y_2}{2}$

Multiply both sides by 2

$2 * 2 = \frac{2 + y_2}{2} * 2$

$4 = 2 + y_2$

Subtract 2 from both sides

$4 - 2 = 2 - 2 + y_2$

$y_2 = 2$

$(x_2,y_2) = (16,2)$

Hence, the coordinates of the other end is $(16,2)$
