I say that answer would be C:

2 years of lost wages
(45K+45K) = 90K
TOTAL cost of school = 30K

sum of investment
(90K+30K) = 120K

5 years to recover investment
(120K/5yrs) = 24K per year

Salary plus amount required to recover investment
<span>(24K+45K) = 69K

I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!</span>

Answer:

Option c., $69,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Full time salary amount for 2 years = $45,000 × 2

= $90,000

Total cost of going to school = $30,000

If i want to recover the investment in 5 years or less then minimum salary i will need

$=\text{Salary of the month}+\frac{\text{total amount invested}}{5}$

= $45000+\frac{((90000+30000)}{5}$

= $45000+\frac{((120000)}{5}$

= 45,000 + 24,000

= $69,000

Therefore, Option C will be the answer.

Solve the equation and graph the solution(s), if possible. 9|4p + 2| + 8 = 35

Cerrena [4.2K]

Solving an equation means finding a value of a variable that make the equation true. This value is called the solution of the equation.<span> A mathematical equation is just like a balanced equation. Both sides of the equation should be equal at all times. </span><span>Whatever we do to one side, has to be done on the opposite side.</span>

$9|4p + 2| + 8 = 35$

$
9|4p+2|=35-8
 
$ $Subtract \ 8 \ from \ both \ sides$

$9|4p+2|=27

 
$

$|4p+2|= \dfrac{27}{9}$ $Divide \ both \ sides \ by \ 9$

$|4p+2|=3$

$Break \ down \ the \ problem \ into \ these \ 2 \ equations$

$
4p+2=3
 
$

$-(4p+2)=3$

$Solve \ the \ 1st \ equation: \ 4p+2=3$

$4p=3-2$   <span> $Subtract \ 2 \ from \ both \ sides$
</span>
$4p=1$

$p= \dfrac{1}{4}$   <span> $Divide \ both \ sides \ by \ 4$
</span>
$Solve \ the \ 2nd \ equation: \ -(4p+2)=3$

$-4p−2=3$    $Simplify \ brackets$

$-4p=3+2$ <span> $Add \ 2 \ to \ both \ sides$
</span>
$-4p=5$

$p= -\dfrac{5}{4}$

$Collect \ all \ solutions$

$p= -\dfrac{5}{4}$ , $p= \dfrac{1}{4}$

Use the image to match the arc/angle measure.

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

The following measurements are:

$m\angle{STR}=23^\circ$ (Option #4)

$m{QT}=142^\circ$ (Option #7)

$mST=134^\circ$ (Option #5)

$mRQ=38^\circ$ (Option #2)

Step-by-step explanation:

To begin, we can find the measure of $\angle{STR}$ by applying the inscribed angle theorem: an angle θ inscribed in a circle is half of the central angle 2θ that subtends the same arc on the circle.

Since the intercepted arc (RS) is 46 degrees, we have:

$46=2\theta\\23=\theta$

Next, we can find the measure of arc QT using the same theorem. So,

$QT=2(71)\\QT=142$

Notice that the chord RT is actually a diameter. From the theorem about the inscribed angle including a diameter, we know that the intercepted arc will have a measure of $180^\circ$ . Since the arc ST is part of the arc RST, and we know RS is $46^\circ$ , we can set up and solve this equation:

$RST = RS + ST\\180 = 46 + ST\\134 = ST$

We can use the same idea to find RQ. We know that RQT is $180^\circ$ and QT is $142^\circ$ , so:

$RQT = RQ + QT\\180 = RQ + 142\\38 = RQ$
