ANSWER

Find out the how long will the Yellow balloon be higher than the orange balloon.

To proof

Now  the diagram is given below

As given

A yellow hot-air balloon is 100 feet off the ground and rising at rate of 8 feet per second.

i.e height of the yellow baloon off the ground  = 100 feet

rising at rate = 8 feet per second.

.An orange hot-air balloon is 160 feet off the ground and rising at a rate of 5 feet per second.

i.e height of the orange baloon off the ground  = 160 feet

rising at rate = 5feet per second.

Formula

Relative\ velocity = \frac{Relative\ Distance}{Relative\ time}

Relative velocity =  rising rate of yellow balloon -   rising rate of orange balloon

= 8 -5

= 3 feet per second

Relative distance =  height of the yellow baloon off the ground -  height of the orange baloon off the ground

= 160 -100

= 60 feet

put in the formula

= \frac{60}{3}

= 20 second

after  20 second Yellow balloon will be higher than the orange balloon.

Hence proved

How much more interest will Maria receive if she invests $1,000 for one year at x percent annual interest, compounded semiannual
notka56 [123]

Answer:

  $0.025x² . . . where x is a number of percentage points

Step-by-step explanation:

The multiplier for semi-annual compounding will be ...

  (1 + x/2)² = 1 + x + x²/4

The multiplier for annual compounding will be ...

  1 + x

The multiplier for semiannual compounding is greater by ...

  (1 + x + x²/4) - (1 + x) = x²/4

Maria's interest will be greater by $1000×(x²/4) = $250x², where x is a decimal fraction.

If x is a percent value, as in x = 6 when x percent = 6%, then the difference amount is ...

  $250·(x/100)² = $0.025x² . . . where x is a number of percentage points

_____

<u>Example</u>:

For x percent = 6%, the difference in interest earned on $1000 for one year is $0.025×6² = $0.90.

I need some help with this, I am supposed to solve for x
liq [111]

They are the same measurements, because:

from 10x + 5, first do vertical angle.

then, alternate interior angle,

then vertical angle again,

and another alternate interior angle.

For each vertical and alternate interior angles, the measurements stay the same.


Set them equal to each other, isolate and solve for x.

10x + 5 = 11x - 1

First, isolate the x. Subtract 10x from both sides, and add 1 to both sides

10x (-10x) + 5 (+1) = 11x (-10x) -1 (+1)

Simplify

5 + 1 = 11x - 10x

6 = x

x = 6

6 is your answer for x.

hope this helps
