The previous year's salary is x.

This year's salary is x + 3000.

12% of this year's salary is $4200.

12% * (x + 3000) = 4200

0.12(x + 3000) = 4200

x + 3000 = 35,000

x = 32,000

Answer: Her salary in the previous year was $32,000.

A town has a population of 13000 and grows at 2.5% every year. What will be the population after 5 years, to the nearest whole n
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

The population will be 14708

Step-by-step explanation:

formula

A = P (1+r)^t

Initial population = P = 13000

Growth rate = r = 2.5% = 0.025

Number of years = t  = 5 years.

A = 13000 (1+.025)^5  = 14708

The figure shown is an equilateral triangle. Calculate the length of each side and give your answer in cm.
cricket20 [7]
Given at you have an equilateral triangle, all sides have the same length.

Therefore,
First side 2x-7 = Second side x+y-9 = Third side y+5

Let us look at the second and third sides for now:
x+y-9 = y+5
x = y+5 - (y-9)
x = y-y+5+9
x = 14

Then we look at equating the first and third sides:
2x-7 = y+5
y = 2x-7-5

Substitute x =14 in the equation above:
y = 2(14)-7-5
= 28-7-5
= 21-5
= 16

The length of the third side is:
y+5 = 16 +5 = 21

Given that the length of each sides are the same in an equilateral triangle, all sides have the length 21cm.
