The claim made by Kyle is not entirely true and unjustifiable because for the figures or solids to be similar, not only the corresponding sides should have the finite ratio but also the corresponding angles should be equal. Although, the claim depends on the type of quadrilateral.

Kyle's claim is incorrect. This is because the square and the diamond are not the same shape. If they would be the same shape, but different sizes (provided the ratios of the corresponding sides are equal), then they would be similar. But they do have the same corresponding side ratios, so they could have been similar if their shapes would be the same.

For the functions f(x)=2x-6 and g(x)=5x+1 Which conposition produces the greatest output?
andrew11 [14]
(f o g)(x) = 2(5x + 1) - 6 =  10x - 4

(g o f)(x) = 5(2x - 6) + 1 =  10x - 29


So (f o g)(x) produces the greatest output.

Write the five term sequence that would represent each recursive rule f(x) = f(x-1) -7; f(2) = 12
barxatty [35]

<u>Answer: </u>

Required five terms of sequence are 19 , 12 , 5 , -2 and -9 .

<u> Solution: </u>

Need to find the five terms of the sequence.

Given recursive rule is f(x) = f(x-1) -7

Substituting x = 2 , f(2) = f(2-1)-7

= f(2) = f(1) – 7    ------(1)

Also given that f(2) = 12.  

On substituting the given value of f(2) in eq (1) we get

12 = f(1) – 7

f(1) = 12 + 7 = 19

Using given recursive rule and given value of f(2) calculating f(3)

Substituting x = 3 ,  

f(3) = f(3-1) – 7  

= f(2) – 7  

= 12 – 7  

= 5

Using given recursive rule and calculated  value of f(3) calculating f(4)

Substituting x = 4,  

f(4) = f(4-1) – 7  

= f(3) – 7  

= 5– 7  

= -2

Using given recursive rule and calculated  value of f(4) calculating f(5)

Substituting x = 5,  

f(5) = f(5-1) – 7  

= f(4) – 7  

= -2– 7  

= -9

Hence required five terms of sequence are 19 , 12 , 5 , -2 and -9 .

The question is: find 55% of $4.80...how do I find the answer?
tresset_1 [31]
4.80 = 100%
   x   = 55%

Cross Multiply

100 * x = 55 * 4.80
100x = 264
x = <u>264</u>
      100
x = 2.64

Solution: $2.64

Assume ABC Company deposits $90,000 with First National Bank in an account earning interest at 6% per annum, compounded and semi
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer: A) $120,953

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to calculate the compound amount (semi-annually):-

A=P(1+\dfrac{r}{2})^{2n}, where P is principal amount , r is rate of interest and n is the number of time periods.

Given : Principal amount : P= $90,000

Rate of interest : 6% per annum = 0.06 per annum

Time period : n= 5 years

A=(90000)(1+\dfrac{0.06}{2})^{2\times5}=120952.474141\approx 120,953

Hence, the ABC will have $ 120,953 in the account after five years if interest is reinvested.
