Luke : jack

3 2

We know like is 36

3*12 = 36, so we need to multiply by 12

Luke : jack

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation

Notice that Luke's real age is 12 times the number in the ratio, which is a simplified version of the original ratio, where they used division by 12 on both sides to get 3:2. Just do the opposite of division, which is multiplication, and multiply both sides of the ratio to get 36:24, which means that Jack is 24 years old!

Find the length and the midpoind of the segment with the given endpointsA(2,3 )and B(5,7)

Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

$Suppose,~a~line~segment~has~midpoints~(x_1,y_1)~and~(x_2,y_2). Then,\\Midpoint~of~the~line = (\frac{x_2+x_1}{2},\frac{y_2+y_1}{2})\\Distance = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}\\According~ to~ the ~question,\\(x_1,y_1) = A(2,3)\\(x_2,y_2) = B(5,7)\\Midpoint~of~AB = (\frac{2+5}{2},\frac{3+7}{2}) = (\frac{7}{2},5)\\AB = \sqrt{(5-2)^2+(7-3)^2} = \sqrt{3^2+4^2} = 5units$

A company made a profit of $75,000 over a period of 6 years on an initial investment of $15,000. What is its annualized ROI?

miv72 [106K]

The formula in getting the ROI or the Return on Investment is ROI = Net Profit/ Total Investment x 100. Below is the solution:

ROI = $ 75,000/$1500 x 100
ROI = $ 5 x 100
ROI = $ 500

You will then divide the $ 500 by 6 to get the ROI per year which is equals to $83.33
