Mathematics

Answer: 12

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use what is called geometric mean to solve this.

The hypotenuse of this triangle is split into two sections. One section corresponds to/equal to the altitude which is our "X", which corresponds to/equal to the second section.

You find "X" by using geometric mean and the proportion:

16/X=X/9

Then cross multiply to get 16 x 9= 144

then 144=x²

Solve for X.

X=12

Option 3:

m∠ABC = 66°

Solution:

Given \overline {F A D} \| \overline {E H C} and ABH is a transversal line.

m∠FAB = 48° and m∠ECB = 18°

m∠ECB = m∠HCB = 18°

<u>Property of parallel lines: </u>

<em>If two parallel lines cut by a transversal, then the alternate interior angles are equal.</em>

m∠FAB = m∠BHC

48° = m∠BHC

m∠BHC = 48°

<u>Exterior angle of a triangle theorem: </u>

<em>An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles.</em>

m∠ABC = m∠BHC + m∠HCB

m∠ABC = 48° + 18°

m∠ABC = 66°

Option 3 is the correct answer.

Jessica has an account with a credit union. Her account earns 2.4% simple interest yearly. Exactly a year and a half ago, she op
Dafna1 [17]
The basic equation for interest is the investment amount(x) times the time in years(y) times the percent of interest(z).

That makes the equation:

x·y·z= amount with interest.

Lets plug in the numbers:

$900 x 1.5 x 2.4%

Now turn the percent into a decimal:

2.4% ----> .024

Now the equation is:

$900 x 1.5 x .024

Now do the math:

$900 x 1.5 = 1350
1350 x .024 = 32.4
1350 + 32.4 = 1382.4

The final answer is $1382.40

Hope this helps!
