Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The 36000 -23000 = 13000 difference in salary is being made up at the rate of 3000 -2000 = 1000 per year. It will take 13000/1000 = 13 years for the salaries to be the same.
__
b) After 13 years, the salary will be ...
23000 +13(3000) = 23000 +39000 = 62,000 . . . dollars
36000 +13(2000) = 36000 +26000 = 62,000 . . . dollars
The answer is B through ASA (Angle-Side-Angle) similarity criterion.
Answer:
X=-6
Step-by-step explanation:
4(1−x)+3x=−2(x+1)
(4)(1)+(4)(−x)+3x=(−2)(x)+(−2)(1)(Distribute)
4+−4x+3x=−2x+−2
(−4x+3x)+(4)=−2x−2(Combine Like Terms)
−x+4=−2x−2
−x+4=−2x−2
Step 2: Add 2x to both sides.
−x+4+2x=−2x−2+2x
x+4=−2
Step 3: Subtract 4 from both sides.
x+4−4=−2−4
x=−6
Answer:
x=−6
first speed --- x mph
return speed -- x+16 mph
6/x + 6/(x+16) = 1
times each term by x(x+16)
6(x+16) + 6x = x(x+16)
x^2 + 4x - 96 = 0
(x-8)(x+12) = 0
x = 8 or x is a negative
her first speed was 8 mph
her return speed was 24 mph
check:
6/8 + 6/24 = 1 , that's good!
