M<STR = 180 - 8x degrees
also m < SRT = 180-8x ( because side RS = side ST, so isosceles triangle)
So
7x - 54 + 180 - 8x = 8x (ext. angle of triangle =sum of opposite internal angles)

7x - 8x - 8x = -180 + 54 = -126
-9x = -126
x = 14 answer

The sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180 degrees.

Angles STU and STR are supplementary angles.
Angles R and STR are congruent.

m<STU + m<STR = 180

8x + m<STR = 180

m<STR = 180 - 8x

m<R = m<STR = 180 - 8x

m<RST + m<R + m<STR = 180

7x - 54 + 180 - 8x + 180 - 8x = 180

-9x + 360 = 180

-9x = -126

x = 14

A gift shop sells 140 wind chimes per month at $90 each. The owners estimate that for each $5 increase in price, they will sell

guapka [62]

Answer: $95

Step-by-step explanation:

Te new price will be 90 + 5x, if the price increases "x" times

The number of wind chimes sold per month will become 140 - 7x

$\begin{aligned}&\text {Revenue, } \mathrm{R}(\mathrm{x})=(90+5 \mathrm{x})(140-7 \mathrm{x}) \\&R^{\prime}(x)=5(140-7 x)-7(90+5 x) \\&R^{\prime}(x)=700-35 x-630-35 x \\&R^{\prime}(x)=70-70 x=0 \\&70 x=70 \\&x=1\end{aligned}$

Therefore, if the price becomes (90 + 5(1)) = $95 per wind chime, then the revenue will be maximum

What is the annual interest rate if $1600 is invested for 6 years and $456 in interest is earned

sergij07 [2.7K]

Use the formula i = p*r*t:
$456
$456 = $1600*r*6. Solving for r, r = ----------------- = 0.0475, or 4 3/4%
($1600)(6)

Determine the term life insurance amount per thousand on a 22-year-old female for a 5-year policy given that the face value of t

VLD [36.1K]

We need to determine the term life insurance amount per thousand on a 22-year-old female for a 5-year policy given that the face value of the policy is $600,000 and the annual premium is $1332.

Since we are supposed to find the term life insurance amount per thousand, therefore, we will use the following formula:

$\text{Term life insurance amount}=\frac{\text{Annual premium}}{\text{Face value of insurance}}*1000$
