We know that:
Substituting known values, we have:
Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming the quadrilateral is a parallelogram, then the diagonals bisect each other.
7x - 8 = 41
7x = 49
x = 7
250 and - 1250
This is a geometric sequence with common ratio r = - 5
multiply each term by - 5 to obtain the next term
- 50 × - 5 = 250
250 × - 5 = - 1250
the sequence is - 2, 10, - 50, 250, - 1250
The total price that Peter paid for the local parcel = $2.07
The rate per ounce at that time was = $0.23/ounce
Total weight of Peter's package = Total price paid by peter/ rate per ounce
Total weight of Peter's package = $2.07/$0.23 per ounce
We now have to divide 2.07/0.23 = 207/23 (Shifting both numerator and denominator by 2 decimal places) = 9
Total weight of Peter's package = 9 ounces
