Answer: YX=13.85\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3> The complete exercise is: "Line segment YV of rectangle YVWX measures 24 units. What is the length of line segment YX?"</h3><h3> The missing figure is attached.</h3>

Since the figure is a rectangle, you know that:

WV=YX\\\\YV=XW=24

Notice that the segment YV divides the rectangle into two equal Right triangles.

Knowing the above, you can use the following Trigonometric Identity:

tan\alpha =\frac{opposite}{adjacent}

You can identify that:

\alpha =30\°\\\\opposite=YX\\\\adjacent=YV=24

Therefore, in order to find the length of the segment YX, you must substitute values into  tan\alpha =\frac{opposite}{adjacent} and then you must solve for YX.

You get that this is:

tan(30\°)=\frac{YX}{24}\\\\(24)(tan(30\°))=YX\\\\YX=13.85

A store had 150 laptops in the month of January. Every month, 20% of the laptops were sold and 10 new laptops were stocked in th
Softa [21]

<u>Answer-</u>

\boxed{\boxed{f(n)=0.8(f(n-1))+10,\ f(0)=150,\ \ n>0}}

<u>Solution-</u>

Here, n represents the number of months and f(n) represents the number of laptops in the store after n months.

As the store had 150 laptops in the month of January or at the beginning.

So f(0)=150

Every month, 20% of the laptops were sold and 10 new laptops were stocked in the store.

As 20% of laptops were sold, so 80% were in the store.

So, after one month total number of laptops in the store,

\Rightarrow f(1)=0.8(150)+10

\Rightarrow f(1)=0.8(f(0))+10     (\because f(0)=150)

Again after one month total number of laptops in the store,

\Rightarrow f(2)=0.8\times (0.8(150)+10)+10

\Rightarrow f(2)=0.8(f(1))+10     (\because f(1)=0.8(150)+10)

Analyzing the pattern, the recursive function f(n) will be,

f(n)=0.8(f(n-1))+10,\ f(0)=150,\ \ n>0
