Answer:
w = 2, EF = 30 , FG = 42
Explanation:
We have EF = 5w + 20 and FG = 7w + 28
Since these points E, F and G are col-linear points we have.
EG = EF + FG
And given that EG = 72
So, EF+EG = 72
5w + 20 + 7w + 28 = 72
12w + 48 = 72
12 w = 24
w = 2
So EF = 5w + 20 = 5x2 + 20 = 30
FG = 7w + 28 = 7x2 + 28 = 42
The first thing you should do is solve the equation yourself.
1) Distribute the 2.
6x + 4 = 2x – 16
2) Next, you'll want to get the x's on one side. So add -2x to both sides.
6x + 4 + -2x = 2x + -2x - 16
4x + 4 = -16
3) Now subtract 4 from both sides
4x + 4 – 4 = -16 – 4
4x = -12
4) Finally, divide both sides by 4
4x/4 = -12/4
x = –3
To solve this problem all you need to do is look back out you work, and figure out the correct solution. The answer the question is The student made an error in Step 1.
Answer:
Discount: 25%
Tax: 6.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
Percentage of discount:
x/100 = 10/39.99 (what percentage is 10 of 39.99) (%/100=is/of)
= 25%
Percentage of tax:
x/100 = 1.95/29.99
= 6.5%
Year Net Profit
1 <span>$14,250.00
2 $15,390.00
3 $16,621.20
4 $17,950.90</span>2
We need to get the increase of the net profit of the current year from the previous year.
Percentage increase = (Current year - Previous Year)/ Previous Year * 100%
Year 2: (15,390 - 14, 250) / 14,250 * 100% = 0.08 * 100% = 8%
Year 3: (16,621.20 - 15,390) / 15,390 * 100% = 0.08 * 100% = 8%
Year 4: (17,950.90 - 16,621.20) / 16,621.20 * 100% = 0.08 * 100% = 8%
Every year the net income increases by 8%. So, the net income in Year 5 will be:
17,950.90 x 1.08 = 19,386.97 Choice D.
