J=(7x+13) K=(83-2x) and the sum of the measures of the angles is 141. What is the measure of each angle

natta225 [31]

Answer:

j=76 and k=65

Step-by-step explanation:

$j + k = 141 \\ 7x + 13 + 83 + - 2x = 141 \\ 96 + 5x = 141 \\ 5x = 141 - 96 \\ 5x = 45 \\ x = \frac{45}{5} \\ x = 9 \\ j = (7 \times 9 + 13) \\ j =76 \\ k = 83 - 2(9) \\ = 83 - 18 \\ = 65$

The price of a computer component is decreasing at a rate of 15% per year. State whether this decrease is linear or exponential

Margaret [11]

Answer:

Since the price is given by an exponential function, the decline in price is exponential.

The component will cost $36.8475 in three years.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for the price of a component has the following format:

$P(t) = P(0)(1-r)^{t}$

In which P(t) is the price after t years, P(0) is the initial price, and r is the rate that the price decreases.

Since the price is given by an exponential function, the decline in price is exponential.

The price of a computer component is decreasing at a rate of 15% per year.

This means that $r = 0.15$

Component costs $60 today

So P(0) = 60. Then

$P(t) = P(0)(1-r)^{t}$

$P(t) = 60(1-0.15)^{t}$

$P(t) = 60(0.85)^{t}$

What will it cost in three years?

This is P(3).

$P(t) = 60(0.85)^{t}$

$P(3) = 60(0.85)^{3} = 36.8475$

The component will cost $36.8475 in three years.

Twelve less than 5 times a number is greater than or equal to 6 more than twice the number. Each inequality and number line repr

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer: x ≥ 6

Step-by-step explanation:

12 less than 5 times a number ≥ 6 more than twice the number

5x - 12 ≥ 2x + 6

Note: the word "than" switches the order of the terms.

5x - 12 ≥ 2x + 6

-2x +12 -2x +12

3x ≥ 18

÷3 ÷3

x ≥ 6

Graph: 6 -----------→ the dot is closed (filled in) since it is "equal to"
