Addition: negative four plus negative four plus negative four equals negative twelve
Multiplication: negative four times three equals negative twelve
Division: twelve divided by 3 equals negative four
This question is referred to two similar triangles.
One triangle has sides x and x - 2.
The other triangle has the respective sides x + x + 5 and x - 2 + x + 1
Then you can state a proportionality relation between the sides>
[x + x + 5] / x = [x - 2 + x + 1] / [x - 2]
=> [2x + 5] / x = [2x - 1] / [x - 2]
=> (2x + 5)(x - 2) = (2x - 1)x
=> 2x^2 - 4x + 5x - 10 = 2x^2 - x
=> x - 10 = - x
=> 2x = 10
=> x = 10 / 2
=> x = 5
Answer: x = 5
Answer:
12.75w + 25 = 114.25
w = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
since sarah is receiving 12.75 each week for a number of weeks, w (we don't know its value yet) we know that first part of the equation: that 12.75 is the coefficient next to w. Then we have the extra 25, so we know that adding 12.75w and 25 would give us sarah's total amount, which is 114.25.
to find out what w represents, we have to solve for it. solving for w means isolating it on one side. so, what we can do first is subtract 25 from both sides. that would then make the equation:
12.75w = 89.25
now, we have only one step left to isolating w, and that's to get 12.75 on the other side somehow. since we're multiplying 12.75 with w, and we're applying additive inverse properties, meaning the opposite of what is happening to cancel it out on the side it's in, we would divide 12.75 on both sides. in the left, 12.75 would cancel out, and in the right, we would divide 89.25 by 12.75. the quotient is 7.
now there's nothing left to take out to isolate w, so we have:
w = 7
sarah saved up for 7 weeks.
3.4% in decimal form is .034 = r
2014 - 2004 = 10 years = t
A = 45,000(1+.034)^10
A= 62,866
