Where are the triangles so I can compare to find the triangle congruence?
Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
These angles are alternate interior angles and m is parallel to n, so they're congruent, meaning that they're equal!
So we can make our equation:
6x - 2 = 46
6x = 48
x = 8
Hope this helps!
The equation for inflation is
A = P*(1+r)^t
which is an exponential growth equation (if r > 0). If r < 0, then we have deflation.
where...
A = final price after t years
P = initial starting price
r = rate of inflation in decimal form
t = number of years
In this case,
A = unknown (we're solving for this)
P = 280 is the starting price
r = 0.05 is the decimal form of 5%
t = 2 years
We will plug these three pieces of info into the formula to get...
A = P*(1+r)^t
A = 280*(1+0.05)^2
A = 280*(1.05)^2
A = 280*(1.1025)
A = 308.70
Answer: 308.70 dollars
