Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Parallelogram P is dilated to form parallelogram P'.

The side of P which is = 10 units corresponds 20 units in P'.

The side of P which is given as =(x+3)  units corresponds 8 units in P'.

To find the value of x.

Solution:

The scalar factor of dilation from P to P' can be given as the ratio of the corresponding sides of the parallelograms.

The scalar factor :

⇒ \frac{\textrm{Side on parallelogram P'}}{\textrm{Side on parallelogram P}}

⇒ \frac{20}{10}

⇒ 2

This means the sides of the parallelogram P' is twice the sides of the parallelogram P.

The side of P which is given as =(x+3)  units corresponds 8 units in P'.

Using the scalar factor the equation to solve for x can be given as:

⇒ 2(x+3)=8

Solving for x.

Using distribution:

⇒ 2x+6=8

Subtracting both sides by 6.

⇒ 2x+6-6=8-6

⇒ 2x=2

Dividing both sides by 2.

⇒ \frac{2x}{2}=\frac{2}{2}

∴ x=1  (Answer)

Steve invested money in the stock market. In the first year, his stock increased 50%. He paid his stockbroker $350 and then lost
telo118 [61]

Answer:

Original amount invested = $3400 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original investment of Steve = $x

Stock increased in the first year = 50% of amount invested

Therefore total amount after one year = x + 0.5x = 1.5x

Commission paid to the stock broker = $350

Amount lost by him = $400

Amount withdrawn by him = $300

Total amount decreased from the amount after 1 year

= 1.5x - (350 + 400 + 300)

= 1.5x - 1050

This remaining amount is doubled, so the final amount

= 2(1.5x - 1050)

= 3x - 2100

This final amount is equal to $8100

3x - 2100 = 8100

3x = 8100 + 2100

3x = 10200

x = $3400

Therefore original amount invested in the stock market was $3400 .
