Answer:

$262.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello

I repay the amount my friend lent me + interest=$250+ x

the interest is found using a rule of three

$250 ⇒100%

$ x ⇒ 5%

x=($250*5%)/100 %

x=$ 12.5

I have to pay

$250+x

$250+$12.5=$262.5

ANSWER $262.5

note: Interest I that produces capital is directly proportional to the initial capital C,

I hope it helps.

have a great day.

Answer:

$1. \frac{3y - 2}{5} = \frac{3y}{5} - \frac{2}{5} \\ \\ 2. \frac{6x - 3}{3} = \frac{6x}{3} - \frac{3}{3} \\ = 2x - 1 \\ \\ 3. \frac{4}{2} = 2$

Find an equation of the tangent line to the graph of

lakkis [162]

Answer:

y + 4 = -3 (x - 5)

In other words,

y = -3 x + 11

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the tangent line to y = g(x) at x = 5 is the same as the value of g'(x). g'(5) = 3. Therefore, 3 will be the slope of the tangent line.

The tangent line goes through the point of tangency (5, g(5)). g(5) = -4. Therefore, the tangent line passes through the point (5, -4).

Apply the slope-point form of the line. The equation for a line with slope <em>m</em> that goes through point (a, b) will be y - b = m(x - a). For the tangent line in this question,

m = 3,
a = 5, and
b = -4.

What will be the equation of this line?

In a photograph, a house is 4 inches wide and 6 inches tall. The photograph is enlarged while keeping proportional dimensions, a

AlekseyPX

Since you keep proportional dimensions, the proportion between the old and new dimensions must be the same. So, if we call the new height $h$ , the preservation of the width/height ratio is written as

$4 \div 6 = 9 \div h$

Solving the proportion for $h$ yields

$h = \frac{6\cdot 9}{4} =\frac{3\cdot 9}{2} = \frac{27}{2} = 13.5$

Suppose that receiving stations X, Y, and Z are located on a coordinate plane at the points (4,5), (-6,-6), and (-14,2

Lilit [14]

Answer:

(-2, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

A careful graph shows the point (-2, -3) is at the intersection of the circles whose radii are the given distances from the receiving stations.

_____

The simultaneous equations for the circles can be solved algebraically.

The epicenter is 10 units from X, so lies on the circle ...

(x -4)^2 +(y -5)^2 = 10^2

x^2 -8x +16 +y^2 -10y +25 = 100

x^2 +y^2 -8x -10y = 59

The epicenter is 5 units from Y, so lies on the circle ...

(x +6)^2 +(y +6)^2 = 5^2

x^2 +12x +36 +y^2 +12y +36 = 25

x^2 +y^2 +12x +12y = -47

The epicenter is 13 units from Z, so lies on the circle ...

(x +14)^2 +(y -2)^2 = 13^2

x^2 +28x +196 +y^2 -4y +4 = 169

x^2 +y^2 +28x -4y = -31

Subtracting the second equation from each of the other two, we get ...

(x^2 +y^2 -8x -10y) -(x^2 +y^2 +12x +12y) = (59) -(-47)

-20x -22y = 106 . . . . eq1 -eq2

(x^2 +y^2 +28x -4y) -(x^2 +y^2 +12x +12y) = (-31) -(-47)

16x -16y = 16 . . . . . . . .eq3 -eq2

These simultaneous linear equations can be solved a variety of ways. We might use substitution:

x = y+1 . . . . . from eq3 -eq2 divided by 16

10(y +1) +11y = -53 . . . . . from eq1 -eq2 divided by -2

21y = -63 . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify, subtract 10

y = -3

x = y+1 = -2

The epicenter is located at (x, y) = (-2, -3).
