Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

130 + y = 180 {linear pair}

y = 180 - 130

y = 50°

3x - 6 +8x + 4 + 50 = 180 {Angle sum property of triangle}

3x + 8x - 6 + 4 + 50 = 180 {Combine like terms}

11x + 48 = 180

11x = 180 - 48

11x = 132

x = 132/11

x = 12°

What is the value of x + 3y + z if x = 4, y = 5, and z= 22<br>a) 16<br>b) 41<br>c) 2

Answer:

OPTION B - 41

Step-by-step explanation:

An expression is given and the corresponding values for the expression are also given. We have to substitute the given values to arrive at the answer.

The given expression is: x + 3y + z.

Also given: x = 4, y = 5, z = 22.

Substitute these values in the above expression, we get:

4 + 3(5) + 22 = 4 + 15 + 22 = 41.

∴ x + 3y + z = 41

Can you please help with this question about exponential equations?

RSB [31]

Since $t$ represents the number of years passed since 2005, in 2005 we have $t=0$ , and in 2015 we have $t=10$ . Let $P_J(y),P_D(y)$ represent the profits of Jones and Davis, respectively, at year y.

We have

$P_J(2005) = 10(0.99)^0 = 10,\quad P_J(2015) = 10(0.99)^{10}\approx 9$

$P_D(2005) = 8(1.01)^0 = 8,\quad P_D(2015) = 8(1.01)^{10}\approx 9$

Choosing the best company somehow depends on how much time you can wait: Jones start with a higher value (10 vs 8), but it has a descending trend, because the multiplicative factor $0.99^t$ goes to zero as t grows.
