Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 5 = 84/x

x² - 5x = 84

x² - 5x - 84 = 0

x = (5 ±√(5² - 4(1)(-84))) / 2

x = (5 ± 19) / 2

x = -7 ignore

x = 12

You want to go to europe 5 years from now, and you can save $3,100 per year, beginning one year from today. you plan to deposit
Tanzania [10]
This is the concept of application of compound interest, to calculate the amount I will have after the 5th deposit we proceed as follows;
A=p(1+r/100)^n
where;
A=future amount
p=principle
r=rate
n=number of years
thus substituting the values in our formula we get:
A=3,100(1+8.5/100)^5
A=3,100(1+0.085)^5
A=3100(1.085)^5
A=4,666.34
The amount of money after 5 years will be $4,666.24

A monument in the shape of a right triangle sits on a rectangular pedestarl that is 7 meters high by 16 meters long. The longest
Minchanka [31]

Answer: 70 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, since the situation forms a right triangle and a rectangle, we have to apply the Pythagorean Theorem (for the triangle)

c^2 = a^2 + b^2  

Where c is the hypotenuse of the triangle (the longest side) and a and b are the other sides.  

Replacing with the values given:  

65^2 = 16^2 + x^2  

4,225 = 256 + x^2

4,225-256 = x^2

3,969=x^2

√3,969 =x

63=x

We have calculated the missing side of the triangle, now we have to add the height of the rectangle:

63 +7 =70 meters

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

True or False: A solution to a Linear Inequality is any point in the shaded<br> region?
jasenka [17]

Answer: True!

We know this is true because a linear inequality uses less than/greater than and less than or equal to/greater than or equal to. This means that as long as the answer fits into the given constraints (in a graph these constraints are shown as lines and dashed lines), it is true.
