Answer:
x=133
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: m║n
This means that 147 and x+14 are <em>alternate exterior angles</em>. This also means that they are equivalent. We can use this information to set up an equation:
x+14=147
Subtract 14 from both sides to isolate x
x=133
Answer:
0.98
Step-by-step explanation:
The investment starts at $10,000.
$10,000 is 100% of the investment.
In the first year, it loses 2% of its value. That means that after 1 year, the value of 100% of $10,000 is decreased by 2% of $10,000.
100% - 2% = 98%
After the first year, the investment is worth 98% of the original value.
98% as a decimal is 0.98
Answer: 0.98
5(2x - 4) = 45
10x - 20 = 45
10x = 45 + 20
10x = 65
x = 65/10 reduces to 13/2 or 6 1/2
Answer:
20/9
Step-by-step explanation:
2/(9/10)=(2/1)(10/9)=20/9
