A=Pe^(rt)

P = 800g

t = 8 years

A = 450g

r = This is what we will try and find to start with

450=800e^(r*8)

After running the math through a calculator, we end with r = -0.07192

Now we just re-input this information into our equation: A=800e^(-0.07192*16)

A=800e^(1.15072)

Now we will re-write the equation using the negative exponent rule:

A = 800 1/e^1.15072

Combine right side:

A = 800/e^1.15072

Then do the math:

A = 253.12709836......

That will give us A = 253 (rounded to the whole number)

I hope this helps! :)

Answer: 123 square feet

Step-by-step explanation: The question is a little odd, but I can break it down easily. It wants us to find the area of a three foot border around his room.

First, the whole area of his room is 20 x 24 = 480

Next, we have to make the measurements 3 feet smaller on each wall, so 17 x 21 = 357

Finally, to find the area of the border, we simply do 480 - 357 = 123

He needs to buy 123 square feet of carpeting

Hope this helps!

What are the coordinates of the endpoints of the midsegment for △DEF that is parallel to DE¯¯¯¯¯?
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

The endpoints of the midsegment for △DEF that is parallel to DE, are (-1,3.5) and (-1,2).

Step-by-step explanation:

If a line connecting the midpoint of two sides and parallel to the third side of the triangle, then it is called a midsegment.

From the given figure it is noticed that the vertices of the triangle are D(1,4), E(1,1) and F(-3,3).

If the midsegment is parallel to DE, then the end points of the midsegment are mid point of DF and EF.

Midpoint formula.

Midpoint=(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})

Midpoint of DF,

Midpoint=(\frac{1-3}{2},\frac{4+3}{2})

Midpoint=(-1,3.5)

Midpoint of EF,

Midpoint=(\frac{1-3}{2},\frac{1+3}{2})

Midpoint=(-1,2)

Therefore the endpoints of the midsegment for △DEF that is parallel to DE, are (-1,3.5) and (-1,2).
