Answer:

45 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Find LCM(15,9). First factor both numbers:

15=3\cdot 5\\ \\9=3\cdot 3

So,

LCM(15,9)=3\cdot 5\cdot 3=45

This means that the length of the side of the smallest square area that can be covered by these tiles is 45 cm.

Practically, you can put 3 tiles in a row (to make 3 lenghts of 15 cm each that add up to 45 cm) and put such 5 rows (to make 5 lengths of 9 cm that add up to 45 cm).

A $1,000.00 bond at 85 1/4 % pays 6.8 % annual interest. Calculate cost of bond.
stepladder [879]

Based on the par value of the bond and the percentage it was issued at, the cost of the bond is $852.50.

<h3>What is the cost of the bond?</h3>

The current cost of the bond is the present value of the bond's cashflows and its par value.

This is taken into account when the bond is issued at a certain percentage which in this case is 85 ¹/₄%.

The cost of the bond is:

= 1,000 x 85 ¹/₄%

= $852.50

Write the equation of the line perpendicular to 2x-5y=-12 that passes through the point (10,-1)
sineoko [7]

Answer:

y = - 5/2x + 24

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 5y = - 12. (10, -1)

- 5y = - 2x - 12

y = -2/-5x -12/-5

y = 2/5x + 12/5

Slope: 2/5 (slope of the perpendicular line: - 5/2)

y - - 1) = - 5/2(x - 10)

y + 1 = - 5/2x + 25

y = - 5/2x + 24
