<h2>Greetings!</h2>

Answer:

$25830

Step-by-step explanation:

If 100% of the car price is 24,600 , then you can imagine that extra 5% being added to this

100 + 5 = 105

So you need to find what 105% of the cost was.

To do this you can use the percentage formula:

Amount x $\frac{percentage}{100}$

Now, you can simply plug the values into this

24,600 x $\frac{105}{100}$

24600 x 1.05 = 25830

<h3>So the total cost including tax would be $25830!</h3><h3 /><h2>Hope this helps!</h2>

Consider triangle WBG, where points W, B and G represent Weather Station, Balloon and Ground, respectively. This triangle is right with right angle at vertex G. The legs of this triangle are GB and GW, the hypotenuse is BW.

From the question you know that GB=4 km and GW=1 km. By the Pythagorean theorem,

$BW^2=GB^2+GW^2,\\ \\BW^2=4^2+1^2,\\ \\BW^2=17,\\ \\BW=\sqrt{17}\approx 4.123\text{ km.}$

Answer: nearly 4.123 km

What is the value of k?

Molodets [167]

Answer:

$( {x}^{2} + 16x + 64) - (x + 8)(x - 4) = k(x + 8) \\ ( {x + 8)}^{2} - (x + 8)(x - 4) = k(x + 8) \\ (x + 8) - (x - 4) = k \\ k = (x - x) + (8 + 4) \\ k = 12$
