Answer:
= 6p Hope I helped. have a nice day!
Use pythagorean theory
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
5^2 + 12^2 = 169
square root of 169 is 13
the missing side length is 13 in
A) The rate for the first 3 years :
15,600 - 7500 = 8100
8100/3 years = 2,700 per year depreciation.
B) The rate between 3 and 8 years:
7500 - 2800 = 4700
4700 / 5 year = 940 per year depreciation.
C) the value of the machine depreciated at a higher rate in the first 3 years. After the first 3 years, the depreciation rate decreased.
-2(8m+8) = -16
-16m - 16 = -16
His first mistake lies in his distribution. When multiplying -2 * 8, he made it a positive 16, when he should have made it a negative 16.
-16m - 16 = -16
Add 16 to each side.
-16m = 0
Divide that by -16
m = 0
