Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonals of a rectangle are congruent, thus

MP = LN , substitute values

9x - 9 = 7x + 9 ( subtract 7x from both sides )

2x - 9 = 9 ( add 9 to both sides )

2x = 18 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 9

LN = 7x + 9 = (7 × 9) + 9 = 63 + 9 = 72

MP = 9x - 9 = (9 × 9) - 9 = 81 - 9 = 72

Answer:

10/16 (written as a fraction)

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting point

-(-2x+1)=9-14x

Solve the minus sign

2x-1=9-14x

Swap the Xs and the numbers, changing sign

2x+14x=9+1

Do calculations

16x=10

Result

x=10/16

Manny Brought a brand new car in 2012 for $28750. if the car depreciates by 12% each year, write n exponential function to model

alexira [117]

The formula for exponential decay is
$y=a(1-r)^{x}$

where a is the initial value (28750)
r is the rate of decrease (0.12)
x is the time, in this case in years (6 . 2018-2012 = 6 years)

$y=28750(1-0.12)^{6}$
