Point P is located at 1/3 the distance from S to N

This means NP is 2/3 the distance.

16 /2 = 8, so each 1/3 distance is equal to 8.

NS = 8 units.

16/12 = (x-1)/6
x-1 = 4/3 . 6
x = 24/3 + 1 = 9

32/24 = (y+1)/21
y+1 = 4/3 . 21
y = 84/3 - 1 = 25

If you bought a car five years ago for $15,000 and today you can sell for $7000 what was its rate of depreciation

Natalka [10]

<h2>Answer:</h2><h2>The rate of depreciation of the car is 14%</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The price of car purchased 5 years ago = 15000

The price of car sold = 7000

By compound depreciation,

$Pn = P (1 - R/100) ^ T$ ... (1)

where Pn = 7000

P = 15000

R = rate of interest to be calculated

T = 5 ( number of years)

substituting the values in equation (1), we get

$7000 = 15000 (1 - R/100) ^ 5$

$0.46 = (1 - R/100) ^ 5$

$0.858 = 1 - R/100$

0.858 is rounded off as 0.86

R/100 = 0.14

By simplifying the above equation, we get

Rate of depreciation = 14%

Find the value of x ANSWER IS NOT

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

x = 11√2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can notice the triangle given is a special triangle, a 45°- 45°- 90° triangle. The hypotenuse of a 45°- 45°- 90° is √2 times the length of a side. We can set up the equation(using x as the side):

x * √2 = 22

We can divide by √2 on both sides to get:

x = 22 / √2

To rationalize the denominator, we multiply by √2 / √2 on the right side:

x = 22√2 / 2

This simplifies to:

x = 11√2
