Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If two lines are perpendicular, they create 4 90° angles. Meaning, in this case, that m<DBC = 90 and m<DBA = 90.
We're given that m<DBE = 2x - 1 and that m<CBE = 5x - 42.
The sum of angles DBE and CBE = m<DBC = 90°
We can add the two angles and set it equal to 90 to find x
Answer:
1%
Step-by-step explanation:
We use the simple interest equation of A=P(1+rt).
A-the total amount with interest earned
P-the initial amount or principal
r-rate
t-time in years
We substitute the values P=6900, A=6923, and t=0.33 since 4 months divided by 12 months is 0.333 years. We then solve for r.
Our final step is to divide both sides by 0.33.
This is the decimal of the rate. We convert to a percentage by multiplying by 100. 0.01(100)=1%.
