Answer:
x = 12
y = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
x + y = 16
x - y = 8
y + 8 = x
Replace x with y + 8 in the new equation
8 + 2y = 16 ----> we can minus 8 on both sides
2y = 8 -----> divide both sides by 2
y = 4
Now for the x value
x + 4 = 16 ----> minus 4 on both sides
x = 12
Answer:
x=133
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: m║n
This means that 147 and x+14 are <em>alternate exterior angles</em>. This also means that they are equivalent. We can use this information to set up an equation:
x+14=147
Subtract 14 from both sides to isolate x
x=133
Please note that pi has just one value. The only difference stems from round-off error when you don't use all of the digits following "3.14159 ... " to represent the value of pi. The formula for circumference is C = 2 pi r, or C = pi d,
where r=radius and d=diameter.
Circle A: Diameter 9 inches and Circumference of 28.26 inches
If the diameter is 9 inches, then C = 28.26 inches = pi (9 inches). Divide 28.26 inches by 9 inches. Note that you MUST round off the ratio (pi) that you obtain, since 28.26 has 4 significant figures and 9 has just one.
28.26
------- = 3.14, but because 9 has just one significant figure, you must round
9 this 3.14 to just 3.
Given:
Principal = 17,000
rate = 10.7%
term = x/360
interest = 1,121.72
Interest = Principal * rate * term
1,121.72 = 17,000 * .107 * x/360
1,121.72 = 1,819x / 360
1,121.72 * 360 = 1,819x
403,632 / 1,819 = x
221.90 = x

Given:
Principal = x
rate = 9%
term = 10 months
interest = 1,687.50
Interest = Principal * rate * term
1,687.50 = x * 0.09 * 10/12
1,687.50 = x * 0.075
1,687.50 / 0.075 = x
22,500 = x
