Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The line from the vertex to the base is a perpendicular bisector.

Consider the left side right triangle, eith base = \frac{1}{2} x

Using Pythagoras' identity.

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is

(\frac{1}{2} x )² + 7² = (\sqrt{74} )², that is

\frac{1}{4} x² + 49 = 74 ( subtract 49 from both sides )

\frac{1}{4} x² = 25 ( multiply both sides by 4 to clear the fraction )

x² = 100 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = \sqrt{100} = 10

Answer:

x = 10 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2 triangles are congruent  by SAS.

Therefore the line of length x is bisected by the perpendicular line,

and they are both right triangles, so we can apply the Pythagoras theorem.

√74)^2 = 7^2 + (0.5x)^2

(0.5x)^2 =  74 - 49

0,25x^2 = 25

x^2 = 25/0.25

x^2 = 100

x = 10 (answer)

What is the answer to <br> -3-7x - 41 - 7&gt;68
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

x < -17

Step-by-step explanation:

-3-7x - 41 - 7>68

Combine like terms

-7x-51>68

Add 51 to each side

-7x-51+51>68+51

-7x > 119

Divide each side by -7, remembering to flip the inequality

-7x/-7 < 119/-7

x < -17

Jeremiah currently has an account balance of $1624.35. His initial deposit on the account was $975 and it earned 3.7% simple int
Naya [18.7K]

Current Account Balance = $1,624.35

Initial Deposit = $975

Interest Rate (Simple) = 3.7% simple interest

Interest Earned = Current Account Balance - Initial Deposit

⇒ Interest Earned = $1,624.35 - $975

⇒ Interest Earned = $649.35

Now the Formula for Simple Interest is:

Simple Interest = ×\frac{\text{P x R x T}}{100}, where P is the initial deposit, R is the rate of interest and T is the time period

⇒ 649.35 = \frac{\text{975 x 3.7 x T}}{100}

⇒ T = \frac{\text{649.35 x 100}}{\text{975 x 3.7}}

⇒ T = 18

Hence, Jeremiah has had the account for 18 years.
