They will be 170 pounds by the end of the year. 5% of 100 would be 5 so 5% of 200 is half of 5 which is 2.5. 2.5 times 12 will get you 30. 200-30 is 170

Answer:170

The painting shown on the right has an area of 300 in^2. what is the value of x?
Nataly [62]

Answer: X = 10.20240940...

Step-by-step explanation:

x(2x + 9) = 2x^2 + 9x

2x^2 + 9x = 300

- 300 ON BOTH SIDES

2x^2 + 9x - 300 = 0

SOLVE USING THE QUADRATIC FORMULA

x = -b +/- all root (b)^2 - 4(a)(c) All over 2(a)

When all the values are plugged in:

When using "+" in the equation you should get:

x = 10.20240940…

When using "-" in the equation you should get:

x = −14.70240940…

Now.. you CANNOT have a negative length, so you cross of the negative value leaving you one value for x which is 10.20240940...

YOUR ANSWER IS:    x   =  10.20240940...

The length of a rectangle is 8 inches more than three times the width. the perimeter is 88 inches. find the length and width.
Sav [38]
We can say L as length and W as the width 

L= 3w + 8 

The formula for perimeter is 2L + 2W = P. We can substitute L in as "3w+8" to make the equation... 

2(3w+8)+2w=88        Now, we can simplify by distributing the 2 to each term
6w+16+2w=88
8w+16=88               Then subtract 16 from each side..
8w=72
w=9

So the width is 9, so we can substitue that into the previous equation, L = 3w+8. 

L=3(9)+8
L=27+8
L=35, W=9

wlad13 [49]
Yes, it would be correct because a triangle has to add up to 180 degrees when all the angles are added up

A) Explanation:
95 + 10 + 75 = 180

B) A triangle will always add up to 180.

Through point (0, 10) and PERPENDICULAR to the line through (-2, -9) and (-4, -17)?
inn [45]

Compute the slope of the line through (-2, -9) and (-4, -17):

\dfrac{-9-(-17)}{-2-(-4)}=\dfrac82=4

Any line perpendicular to this line will have slope -1/4. The one that passes through (0, 10) satisifes

y-10=-\dfrac14(x-0)\implies\boxed{y=10-\dfrac x4}

Sebastian wants to create a right triangle with side lengths 14 inches, 48 inches, and 5
allochka39001 [22]

Answer: Choice A

\text{Yes, because } 14^2+48^2 \text{ is equal to } 50^2

=======================================================

Explanation:

The pythagorean theorem is a^2+b^2 = c^2

The value of c is always the longest side, aka hypotenuse.

The order of 'a' and b doesn't matter.

So a = 14, b = 48, c = 50

We have a^2+b^2 = 14^2+48^2 = 196+2304 = 2500

We also have c^2 = 50^2 = 2500

Both sides result in 2500 which proves that 14^2+48^2 = 50^2 is a true statement. Therefore, we do have a right triangle.
