Answer:
13
Step-by-step explanation:
5-(-8)=13
a = interest rate of first CD
b = interest rate of second CD
and again, let's say the principal invested in each is $X.

Answer:
The answer is 37
Step-by-step explanation:
8x8=64
9x3=27
64-27=37
Answer:
Choice B: BD/DA = CE/EA
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope is rise over run. For the two slopes to be equal, the rise over run of the two triangles must be equal.
The rise over run for triangle ABD is BD/DA.
The rise over run of triangle ACE is CE/EA.
For the slopes to be equal, BD/DA = CE/EA
Answer: Choice B.
<h2>
Explanation:</h2>
In every rectangle, the two diagonals have the same length. If a quadrilateral's diagonals have the same length, that doesn't mean it has to be a rectangle, but if a parallelogram's diagonals have the same length, then it's definitely a rectangle.
So first of all, let's prove this is a parallelogram. The basic definition of a parallelogram is that it is a quadrilateral where both pairs of opposite sides are parallel.
So let's name the vertices as:

First pair of opposite sides:
<u>Slope:</u>

Second pair of opposite sides:
<u>Slope:</u>

So in fact this is a parallelogram. The other thing we need to prove is that the diagonals measure the same. Using distance formula:

So the diagonals measure the same, therefore this is a rectangle.
