Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle is a polygon with three sides and three angles. There are different types of triangles such as scalene triangle, equilateral triangle, isosceles triangle.

The area of a triangle is given as:

A = (1/2) * b * h

where b = base of triangle, h = height of triangle , A = area

Let BC = base = x, and AD = height = y, hence:

A = (1/2) * x * y = 0.5xy

If the lengths of AD and CB were both increased by 50%, hence:

new AD = y + 0.5y = 1.5y, new CB = x + 0.5x = 1.5x

The new area= (1/2) * 1.5y * 1.5x = 1.125xy

Increased area / area = 1.125xy / 0.5xy = 2.25

If the lengths are increased by 50%, the area would also increase and the new area would be 2.25 times

Answer:

The value of x is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

In ΔABC

m∠A = 10x+9

m∠B = 34°

m∠C = 97°

To Find:

x= ?

Solution:

Triangle sum property:

In a Triangle sum of the measures of all the angles of a triangle is 180°.

\angle A+\angle B+\angle C=180\\\\10x+9+34+97=180\\\therefore 10x=180-140=40\\\\\therefore x=\dfrac{40}{10}=4\\\\\therefore x=4

The value of x is 4.

what is the rate of inflation if a savings account has a nominal interest rate of 3% and a real interest rate of 1%
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

the rate of inflation is 2%.

Step-by-step explanation:

given:

Nominal interest rate =3%

Real interest rate=1%

To Find:

Rate of inflation=?

Solution:

Nominal interest rate:

Nominal interest rate refers to the interest rate before taking inflation into account.

Inflation rate:

The inflation rate is the percent increase or decrease in prices during a specified period. It's usually over a month or a year.

Real interest rate:

A real interest rate is an interest rate that has been adjusted to remove the effects of inflation to reflect the real cost of funds to the borrower and the real yield to the lender or to an investor.

Real interest rate ≈ nominal interest rate − inflation rate.

This can be re written as

inflation rate= Real interest rate - nominal interest rate

Substituting the values,

inflation interest = 1+3

inflation interest=4%
