Answer:

The fraction of the area of ACIG represented by the shaped region is 7/18

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

step 1

In the square ABED find the length side of the square

we know that

AB=BE=ED=AD

The area of s square is

A=b^{2}

where b is the length side of the square

we have

A=49\ units^2

substitute

49=b^{2}

b=7\ units

therefore

AB=BE=ED=AD=7\ units

step 2

Find the area of ACIG

The area of rectangle ACIG is equal to

A=(AC)(AG)

substitute the given values

A=(9)(10)=90\ units^2

step 3

Find the area of shaded rectangle DEHG

The area of rectangle DEHG is equal to

A=(DE)(DG)

we have

DE=7\ units

DG=AG-AD=9-7=2\ units

substitute

A=(7)(2)=14\ units^2

step 4

Find the area of shaded rectangle BCFE

The area of rectangle BCFE is equal to

A=(EF)(CF)

we have

EF=AC-AB=10-7=3\ units

CF=BE=7\ units

substitute

A=(3)(7)=21\ units^2

step 5

sum the shaded areas

14+21=35\ units^2

step 6

Divide the area of  of the shaded region by the area of ACIG

\frac{35}{90}

Simplify

Divide by 5 both numerator and denominator

\frac{7}{18}

therefore

The fraction of the area of ACIG represented by the shaped region is 7/18

Use the "rule of 72" to estimate the doubling time (in years) for the interest rate, and then calculate it exactly. (Round your
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

Using the rule of 72, the doubling time is 9.35 years.

The exact answer is that the doubling time is 8.89 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

By the rule of 72, we have that the doubling time D is given by:

D = \frac{72}{Interest Rate}

The interest rate is in %.

In our exercise, the interest rate is 7.7%. So, by the rule of 72:

D = \frac{72}{7.7} = 9.35.

Exact answer:

The exact answer is going to be found using the compound interest formula(since the rule of 72 is a simplification of this formula).

The compound interest formula is given by:

A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}

Where A is the amount of money, P is the principal(the initial sum of money), r is the interest rate(as a decimal value), n is the number of times that interest is compounded per unit t and t is the time the money is invested or borrowed for.

So, for this exercise, we have:

We want to find the doubling time, that is, the time in which the amount is double the initial amount, double the principal.

A = 2P

r = 0.077

There are 52 weeks in a year, so n = 52

A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}

2P = P(1 + \frac{0.077}{52})^{52t}

2 = (1.0015)^{52t}

Now, we apply the following log propriety:

\log_{a} a^{n} = n

So:

\log_{1.0015}(1.0015)^{52t} = \log_{1.0015} 2

52t = 462.44

t = \frac{462.44}{52}

t = 8.89

The exact answer is that the doubling time is 8.89 years.

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

x = -8/b

Step-by-step explanation:

2bx-bx= -8

bx = -8

Divide by b since b is nonzero

Match the labeled points on the graph to statements about their coordinates Two numbers with a sum of 2
Kamila [148]

Answer:

see explanation!

Step-by-step explanation:

Line N

  • A set of points where the coordinates of each point have a sum of 2

Line M

  • A set of points where the y-coordinates of each point is 10 less than its x-coordinate

Any coordinate on N has a sum of 2.

Any coordinate on M has a y that is 10 less than the x.
