Answer:

x = 2
YZ = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The diameter is twice the radius, so ...

XY = 2·ZY

12x -4 = 2(3x +4) . . . . substitute the given expressions

12x -4 = 6x +8 . . . . . . eliminate parentheses

6x = 12 . . . . . . . . . . . . add 4-6x

x = 2

YZ = 3x+4 = 3(2) +4

YZ = 10

On a coordinate plane, rhombus A B C D is shown. Point A is at (1, 1), point B is at (negative 2, negative 3), point C is at (ne

Answer:

20 units

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

On a coordinate plane , rhombus ABCD in which point A is at (1,1) and point B is at (-2,-3), point C is at (-5,1) and D is at (-2,5).

We have to find the perimeter of rhombus ABCD.

Distance formula : $\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

Using the distance formula

Side AB= $\sqrt{(-2-1)^2+(-3-1)^2}=5 units$

We know that sides of rhombus are equal

Therefore, AB=BC=CD=AD=5 units

Perimeter of rhombus= $4\times side$

Perimeter of rhombus= $4\times 5=20 units$

Answer: 20 units

A bill originally amounting Rs 1550, now amounts to Rs 1736 after adding VAT. Find the VAT rate.kaabil original amounting

Vlad [161]

Answer: 12%

Step-by-step explanation:

Original amount = Rs 1550

VAT = Rs 1736 - Rs 1550 = Rs 186

VAT rate = VAT/Original amount × 100

= 186/1550 × 100

= 18600/1550

= 12%

Therefore, the VAT rate is 12%.

Check:

= Rs 1550 + (12% × Rs 1550)

= Rs 1550 + $186

= Rs 1736

A library has five copies of a certain textbook on reserve of which two copies (1 and 2) are hardcover books and the other three

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Since the student have to stop when he gets to w softcover book, then the sample space should always stop at either 3 or 4 or 5. If the students examines the books randomly and stops at a softcover book, here are the possible ways he could carry this out,

S = {3, 4, 5, 13, 14, 15, 23, 24, 25, 123, 124, 125, 213, 214, 215}

2. Since only one book is to be examined then the student must check only one softcover book and end the examining. To do this, either he examines just 3 or 4 or 5. Therefore,

A = {3, 4, 5}

3. We need to pick the possibilities from the sample space that shows that the examining ended at book 5. Therefore,

B = {5, 15, 25, 125, 215}

4. We need to pick possibilities from the sample space that shows that book 1 was not examined. Therefore,

C = {3, 4, 5, 23, 24, 25}
