Which argument is valid?

1 answer:

8 0

1 - True. If a number is divisible by 12 it's divisible by 6 and thus by 3

2 - False. A rhombus needn't have square angles

3 - False. the second proposition is unrelated to the first one, and doesn't allow us to deduce that cats have fur.

4 - False - We cannot link the first and second proposition in any way to make the third

A bank pays 5% interest compounded annually. What principal will grow to $12,000 in 10 years.

makvit [3.9K]

<h3>Answer: 7366.96 dollars</h3>

========================================================

Use the compound interest formula:

A = P(1+r/n)^(n*t)

where in this case,

A = 12000 = amount after t years

P = unknown = deposited amount we want to solve for

r = 0.05 = the decimal form of 5% interest

n = 1 = refers to the compounding frequency (annual)

t = 10 = number of years

-------

Plug all these values into the equation, then solve for P

A = P(1+r/n)^(n*t)

12000 = P(1+0.05/1)^(1*10)

12000 = P(1.05)^(10)

12000 = P(1.62889462677744)

12000 = 1.62889462677744P

1.62889462677744P = 12000

P = 12000/1.62889462677744

P = 7366.95904248911

P = 7366.96

X+2y=8 in slope intercept form

jeka94

This question is super easy, all you need to do is isolate the y variable. When you want to isolate it, you have to get rid of other numbers by doing the opposite sign.
x+2y=8 Subtract the x.
2y=8-x Divide by two.
y=4-1/2x

Please Help I Don't Understand!

asambeis [7]

Answer:

5.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they are similar triangles, we assume the ratio between AM/AN is equal to the ratio between MB/NC.
AM/AN = 6/8 = 3/4
If MB is 4
3/4 = MB/NC = 4/NC
3/4 = 4/NC

3NC = 16
NC = 16/3
16/3 = 5.333333

Martin throws a ball straight up in the air. the equation h(t) = -16t^2 + 40t + 5 gives the height of the ball, in feet, t secon

Lisa [10]

Answer:

2.62 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

t ----> the time in seconds

h(t) ----> he height of the ball, in feet

we have

$h(t)=-16t^2+40t+5$

we know that

When the ball hits the ground, the height is equal to zero

$-16t^2+40t+5=0$

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form

$at^{2} +bt+c=0$

is equal to

$t=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}$

in this problem we have

$-16t^2+40t+5=0$

$a=-16\\b=40\\c=5$

substitute in the formula

$t=\frac{-40\pm\sqrt{40^{2}-4(-16)(5)}} {2(-16)}$

$t=\frac{-40\pm\sqrt{1,920}} {-32}$

$t=\frac{-40+\sqrt{1,920}} {-32}=-0.12\ sec$

$t=\frac{-40-\sqrt{1,920}} {-32}=2.62\ sec$

therefore

The solution is t=2.62 seconds

Math help please, thank you!

CaHeK987 [17]

The answer to the first question of the attached document is option 1. We obtain the answer subtracting the term n from the series with the term n-1.For example:
-3 - (- 5) = 2
-1 - (- 3) = 2
1 - (- 1) = 2
So you can see that the common difference is the 2.

The answer to the second question is option 3:
y = | x + 7 |
We can confirm it by substituting values in the equation.
For example:
if we do y = 0 then x = -7
if we do x = 0 then y = 7.
As corresponds in the graph shown.
Remember also that as a general rule yes to the equationy = | x | whose vertex is in the point (0,0) we add a positive real number "a" of form y = | x + a | then the graph of y = | x | will move "to" units in the negative direction of x.

The answer to the third question is option 4.
The quotient of x and "and" is constant.
k = y / x
Rewriting:
y = kx
You can see that it corresponds to the equation of a line that passes through the origin, this means that and is proportional to x and both vary directly
