Answer:

$18,432

Step-by-step explanation:

After the first year, the speedboat is now worth $36,000 because 20% of 45,000 is 9,000, and 45,000 - 9,000 = 36,000. After the second year, it is now worth $28,800. After the third year, it is worth $23,040 since 20% of 28,800 is 5,760 and 28,800 - 5,760 = 23,040. After four years, the boat that once was worth $45,000 is now worth $18,432.

Based only on the information given in the diagram, which congruence theorems

Finger [1]

Answer: A) SAS and B) ASA and (D) LA

Step-by-step explanation:

A) AC = XZ Sides are congruent

∠C = ∠Z Angles are congruent

BC = YZ Sides are congruent

Side-Angle-Side

B) ∠A = ∠X Angles are congruent

AC = XZ Sides are congruent

∠C = ∠Z Angles are congruent

Angle-Side-Angle

C) AB = XY is not given. We can use Pythagorean Theorem to discover that they are the same but since it is not given we cannot use Side-Side-Side.

D) AC = XZ Legs are congruent

∠A = ∠X acute Angles are congruent

Leg-Angle

If your starting salary were $50,000 and you received a 4% increase at the end of every year for 15 years, what would be the tot

ycow [4]

Answer-

The total amount you would have earned over the first 16 years is $90047.20

Solution-

The exponential function that would given the growth is,

$P'=P(1+r)^t$

Where,

P' = Future value,

P = Current value = $50000

r = rate of change = 4% = 0.04

t = time = 15 year (not 16 because the the increment occurs at year end and we want to get the value at the beginning of 16th year)

Putting the values,

$P'=50000(1+0.04)^{15}$

$=50000(1.04)^{15}$

$=90047.20$

Therefore, the total amount you would have earned over the first 16 years is $90047.20

Last year 120 students went on the annual school trip to Fiorida. This year. 225 students went What was the percent increase of

Tju [1.3M]

Percent change formula states that

((New-old)/old) x 100 = the percent change / percent increase
So if we take your equation and plug it into our formula

((225-120)/120) x 100

(105)/120 x 100

.875 x 100

87.5 % increase of students on the trip

Hope this helps!
