Answer:

<u>$180,000</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

First you have to change 17% into a decimal which would be 0.17 which makes it easier to work with.

If we put this into an equation we know some value of x is the original price of the house and 0.17 (17%) of this unknown x is 30600.

Therefore: x * 0.17 = 30600

We divide 0.17 on both sides to cancel it on the left and get x by itself.

Now x = 30600/0.17

We get x = $180,000

Therefore, the original price of the home was $180,000.

A pyramid has a rectangular base of length (3x + 1)cm and width xcm.
sergey [27]

Answer:

The dimension of the base of the Rectangle Pyramid is Length = 10 and Width = 8/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Rectangle Pyramid

Base Length = 3x + 1

Base Width = x

Height = 12

Volume = 96

Required

Dimension of the base of the pyramid

Given that the volume of the pyramid is ⅓ of the base area * the height.

This is represented mathematical as

Volume = ⅓ * base area * height.

Where

Base area = width * length

Base area = (3x + 1) * x

Base area = 3x² + x.

So,

Volume becomes

Volume = ⅓ * (3x² + x) * 12.

Volume = (3x² + x) * 4

Substitute 96 for volume

96 = (3x² + x) * 4

Divide both sides by 4

96/4 = (3x² + x) * 4/4

24 = 3x² + x

Subtract 24 fr both sides

24 - 24 = 3x² + x - 24

0 = 3x² + x - 24

3x² + x - 24 = 0

Expand

3x² + 9x - 8x - 24 = 0

Factorize

3x(x + 3) - 8(x + 3) = 0

(3x - 8)(x + 3) = 0

3x - 8 = 0 or x + 3 = 0

3x = 8 or x = -3

x = 8/3 or x = -3

Recall that

Length = 3x + 1

Width = x

For any of the above expression, x can't be less than 0; so, x = -3 can't be considered.

Substitute x = 8/3

Length = 3x + 1

Length = 3(8/3) + 1

Length = 8 + 1

Length = 9

Width = x

Width = 8/3

Hence, the dimension of the base of the Rectangle Pyramid is Length = 10 and Width = 8/3

Is 1.2 less than or higher than 1.5
Olenka [21]

1.2 is less than 1.5

If you cancel out 1 from both numbers you're left with .2 and .5

Multiply both by 10 and get 2 and 5.

Obviously 2 is less than 5.

Identify the vertex of the quadratic function
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

(-2,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

On the graph, the vertex is where the bottom of the U is. In general, it's always that same place on the U, but the U could be turned upside down or left or right. Looking at the bottom of the U, count on the x axis first (left 2, which is negative). That's your first number. Then count on the y axis (down 1, again, negative). That's your second number. Hope this helps!
