Answer:

$ $$78760.00$

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to calculate the interest on $40000 at 5.7% interest per year after 17 years.

The formula we'll use for this is the simple interest formula, or:

$I=P*r*t$

Where:

P is principal amount, $40,000

r is the interest rate, 5.7% per year, or in decimal form, $\frac{5.7}{100} =0.057$

t is the time involved, 17 years

To find the simple interest we multiply $40000*0.057*17$ to get

The interest rate is $38,760

Usually now, the interest is added onto the principal to figure some new amount after 17 years.

or 40000.00 + 38760.00 = 78760.00

=$78,760

A piece of duct measures 48 inches. When pieces are fitted together, 1 72 inches is lost connecting each successive length of du

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

A piece of duct measures 48 inches.

In each connection, we lost 1.72 inches (it also could be 1/2 inches, but i will go with the other option)

Then:

If we have 7 pieces of duct connected we have 5 connections (the ones in the extremes are not connected between them)

So here we have 7 times 48 inches for the pieces, minus 5 times 1.72 inches for the connections, the length is:

L = 7*48in - 5*1.72in = 327.4 inches.

for the 12 pieces duct, we have 12 pieces and 10 connections, so the length is:

L = 12*48in - 10*1.72in = 558.8 in

Now, if we want to make only one duct with those two, then we must add their lengths, but if we connect them, we also need to subtract the 1.72in of the new connection:

L = 558.8 in + 327.4 in - 1.72in = 884.48 in

If UV=x+13 and RT=x-37, What is the value of x?

liberstina [14]

Answer:

x = 87

Step-by-step explanation:

the ratio SR / RV is equal the ratio ST / TU (both ratios are equal to 1), and the angle in the vertex S is the same for both triangles SUV and STR, so we can affirm that these triangles are similar (case S-A-S).

Then, we have that the ratio SR / SV is the same as RT / UV:

SR / SV = RT / UV = 1 / 2

RT * 2 = UV

2*(x - 37) = x + 13

2x - 74 = x + 13

x = 87

Answer:

Option 1: y + 5 = ½(x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to find the slope. the formula to find the slope from two points is $\frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}$ and if you plug in the points it will be $\frac{-4 - (-5)}{4 - 2}$ which is $\frac{1}{2}$ .
