Start with an equation summing all the angles in this triangle:

180 = <M + <N + <P

we are given <M and <N but not <P. But, since MN=NP, the angle <P is the same as the angle <M (isosceles, make a drawing to see). So

180 = 2<M + <N

180 = 2(3x+1) + x-11

180 = 7x - 9

x = 27

<P = 3*27+1 = 82 degrees

Find the face value of the 20-year zero-coupon bond at 4.4%, compounded semiannually, with a price of $8,375.

umka21 [38]

Given:

Time,

t = 20 years

Rate,

r = 4.4%

Price

= $8,375

Now,

The yield will be:

= $\frac{4.4}{2}$

= $1.1$ (%)

Time will be:

= $20\times 2$

= $40 \ periods$

As we know the formula,

⇒ $Price \ of \ bond = \frac{Face \ value}{(1+\frac{r}{2} )^{n\times 2}}$

By substituting the values, we get

$8375=\frac{Face \ value}{(1+\frac{0.044}{2} )^{20\times 2}}$

$8375=\frac{Face \ value}{(1.022)^{40}}$

$8375=\frac{Face \ value}{2.3880083}$

The face value will be:

$Face \ value = 2.3880083\times 8375$

$=20,000$ ($)

joe earns R25 per hour working at a pizza shop. How much will he earn over a weekend of two shifts, each six hours long

NeX [460]

Answer:

R300

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve:

Multiply 25 by 6 to represent the earnings of a shift.
Multiply the shift earnings by 2 to represent how much he earned over the weekend.

Multiply 25 by 6:

$25 \times 6 = 150$

Multiply 150 by 2:

$150 \times 2 = 300$

Joe will earn R300 over the weekend,

Consider the box-and-whisker plot.

dedylja [7]

each part of the box and whisker is 25% (meaning each quartile) There are 4 quartiles so this makes 100%

So, the first being 25% and this is where the below 15 falls.

So, 25%

Given that LON is a right angle, find the measure of x.

sveta [45]

Answer:

$x=30\°$

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

m∠LOM+m∠MON=m∠LON ----> by angle addition postulate

we have

m∠LOM=2x°

m∠MON=x°

m∠LON=90° ----> is a right angle

substitute the values

$2x+x=90$

solve for x

$3x=90$

$x=30\°$
