<h3>Answer:</h3>

$3700

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

Let x represent the amount invested at 9%. Then 5100-x is the amount invested at 8%. The total interest earned is ...

... 0.08(5100-x) +0.09x = 445

... 0.01x = 445 -0.08·5100 . . . . . collect terms, subtract .08·5100

... x = (445 -408)/0.01 = 3700 . . . divide by the coefficient of x.

The student invested $3700 at 9%.

Find the image of the points after a reflection in the line x=-2​
meriva

Answer:

The Y value part of the point's coordinates will always stay the same, and then calculate the distance from the point's x value to the line -2 and then count the same amount in the opposite direction. For example, if the point was (-3,1), then the point is 1 left from the line, so you will go point one right from the line and get the answer (-1,1)

Find the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle whose legs are 5 and √2.
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

\sqrt{27}

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides.

let h represent the hypotenuse, then

h² = 5² + (\sqrt{2} )² = 25 + 2 = 27 ( take the square root of both sides )

h = \sqrt{27} ← exact value

<h3>Answer:   -a > -b</h3>

Explanation:

Let's go over an example.

We'll have a = 1 and b = 7 which makes a < b true. Feel free to pick your own favorite pair of numbers such that b is larger than 'a'.

The corresponding opposites are:  -a = -1 and -b = -7

The relationship flips because the opposites of each number are flipped. So instead of saying -a < -b, we have -a > -b

Sure enough, -1 > -7 is a true statement. Use a number line to see this. I recommend a vertical number line.

In short, going from a < b to -a > -b means we flip the signs of each term, and we flip the inequality sign as well.

The acceleration of an object due to gravity is 32 feet per second squared. What is acceleration due to gravity in inches per se
MrRa [10]
One foot = 12 inches.
32 feet = x inches
x/12=32/1
so 
x=12*32/1 inches per second^2
