Points F, G and H are collinear. If GH = 16, what is FH?

Mathematics

ch4aika [34]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

FH = 36 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Points F, G and H are collinear.

Therefore, by joining segments FG and GH we get a segment FH.

FH = FG + GH

By substituting the values of the segments given in the question,

FH = (3x - 1) + (2x + 2)

     = 5x + 1

Since, GH = 16

2x + 2 = 16

2x = 14

x = 7

Therefore, FH = (5x + 1)

                       = 35 + 1

                       = 36 units

Measure of segment FH = 36 units.

How much should a family deposit at the end of every 6 months in order to have $4000 at the end of 3 years? The account pays 5.9
ra1l [238]

We are asked to determine the present value of an annuity that is paid at the end of each period. Therefore, we need to use the formula for present value ordinary, which is:

PV_{ord}=C(\frac{1-(1+i)^{-kn}}{\frac{i}{k}})

Where:

\begin{gathered} C=\text{ payments each period} \\ i=\text{ interest rate} \\ n=\text{ number of periods} \\ k=\text{ number of times the interest is compounded} \end{gathered}

Since the interest is compounded semi-annually this means that it is compounded 2 times a year, therefore, k = 2. Now we need to convert the interest rate into decimal form. To do that we will divide the interest rate by 100:

\frac{5.9}{100}=0.059

Now we substitute the values:

PV_{ord}=4000(\frac{1-(1+0.059)^{-2(3)}}{\frac{0.059}{2}})

Now we solve the operations, we get:

PV_{\text{ord}}=39462.50

Therefore, the present value must be $39462.50

Which of the following is the inverse of y=12^x
Elenna [48]
y=12^x\ \ \ |log_{12}\\\\\log_{12}y=\log_{12}12^x\\\\\log_{12}y=x\log_{12}12\\\\x=\log_{12}y


y=12^x\to y^{-1}=\log_{12}x;\ x\in\mathbb{R^+}\to\ y^{-1}=\dfrac{\log x}{\log12};\ x\in\mathbb{R^+}\to y^{-1}=\dfrac{\ln x}{\ln 12}

Used:\\\\\log_aa=1\\\\\log_ab^n=n\log_ab\\\\\log_ab=\dfrac{\log_cb}{\log_ca}

6x+4y=42 -3x+3y=-6 by elimination
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

x=5, y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this system, we need to find x and y. First, let's find x. In the first equation (6x+4y=42), subtract 4y on both sides to isolate 6x. This will result in 6x=42-4y. Divide by 6 on both sides to isolate x and get x=7-\frac{2}{3}y. Now we know what x equals. Go to the second equation ad plug this into it. So instead of -3x+3y=-6, you'll have -3(7-\frac{2}{3}y)+3y=-6. Use the distributive property to get -21+2y+3y=-6. Add 2y and 3y to get -21+5y=-6. Add 21 to both sides to isolate 5y and get 5y=15. Divide by 5 on both sides to isolate y and get y=3. Now that we know that y=3, we can plug this back into the equation that was bolded above so that we can find x, so we'll have x=7-\frac{2}{3}(3) since y=3, and we'll get x=7-\frac{6}{3}, or x=7-2, or x=5.

x=5

y=2
