Answer:
a = b = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangles are similar thus ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is
= 
( cross- multiply )
10b = 10 ( divide both sides by 10 )
b = 1
and
= 
( cross- multiply )
10a = 10 ( divide both sides by 10 )
a = 1
Thus a = 1 and b = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
1snack pack cost 1.6dollars($0. 6+$1)
10snack pack cost 16dollars.
($0. 6+$1)×10 =/ unequal $9
So 2.5 os to 50, aka 2.5:50
divide each side by 2.5 to get the answer.
if you dont have a calculator, divide each side by 5 to get .5:10, multiply by 2 to get 1:20
We have to determine the value of a house after 10 years. We know that the present value of the house is $125,000 and that the value increases 3.5% each year. Formula is: FV = PV * ( 1 + r )^t, where FV is the future value, PV is the present value, r = 3.5% = 0.035 and t = 10 years. FV = 125,000 *( 1.035 )^10 = 125,000 * 1.4105; FV = $176,324.85 ( $ 176,325 to the nearest dollar ). Answer: The value of the house after 10 years will be <span>$176,325.</span>
