Answer:

x = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

If AB and CD are the straight lines, sum all the angles formed at a point lying on this line will be 180°.

m∠COE + m∠EOF + m∠FOB + m∠BOD = 180° [Angles at a point O on line AB]

3x + x + (x + 12) + m∠BOD = 180°

m∠BOD = 180° - (5x + 12)

Similarly, m∠AOD + m∠AOC = 180°

152° + m∠AOC = 180°

m∠AOC = 28°

Since, ∠AOC and ∠BOD are the vertical angles,

m∠AOC = m∠BOD

180° - (5x + 12)° = 28°

5x + 12 = 180 - 28

5x = 140

x = 28

How much would $100 invested at 8% intrest compounded annually be worth after 15 years? round your answer to the nearest cent. d

frosja888 [35]

Our P = 100, r = .08, n = 1 (annually means once a year), and t = 15. Filling in accordingly, we have $A(t)=100(1+ \frac{.08}{1})^{(1)(15)}$ . Simplifying a bit gives us $A(t)=100(1+.08)^{15}$ and $A(t)=100(1.08)^{15}$ . Raising that number inside the parenthesis to the 15th power gives us $A(t)=100(3.172169114)$ . Multiplying to finish means that A(t) = $317.22

Use algebraic means to show that x^2 + y^2 = 8 is not a function. Explain your process.

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

For a single value of x function has more than one corresponding value of y which satisfies the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Function: A relationship between a set of inputs and a set of possible outputs, where exactly one output is associated with each input.

It means for an equation to represent a function any single value of x there should be only one corresponding value of y which satisfies the equation.

Now consider the given equation.

$x^2 + y^2 = 8$

If we put x=0 then we get two value of y i.e $\sqrt8$ and $-\sqrt8$ which satisfy the equation and therefore the equation is not a function.
