The value of x is 5/8.
<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:
Given,
- The lines PQ and RS are parallel to each other.
- slope of PQ= x-1/4
- slope of RS = 3/8
The slopes of parallel lines are equal.
slope of PQ = slope of RS
⇒ x-1/4 = 3/8
⇒ (4x-1)/4 = 3/8
⇒ 8(4x-1) = 4(3)
⇒ 32x-8 = 12
⇒ 32x = 20
x = 20/32
x = 5/8
Answer:
£168
Step-by-step explanation:
To increase £120 by 40%, multiply 120 by 1.4
120(1.4)
= 168
So, £120 increased by 40% is £168
25 is .0333% of 750
•25/750 = .03
750 is 3000% of 25
•3000% = 30
Answer:
$28,188.46
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula you need is:

Where A(t) is the amount after the compounding, P is the initial investment, r is the interest rate, n is the number of compoundings per year, and t is the time in years. We are looking for A(t). P is $14,250; r in decimal form is .0525; n is 52 since there are 52 weeks in a year; t is 13 years. Filling in:

Simplifying inside the parenthesis and the exponential multiplication:

Raising the number in parenthesis to the power of 676 gives us:
A(t) = 14,250(1.978137432)
Multiplying then gives us $28,188.46
