28/7 =4
7•4 is 28 or
7+7+7+7 is also 28
X = 10
The triangles are similar by SAS, so we can set up a proportion of their sides.
9/(33-9) = 12/(3x+2)
9/24 = 12/3x+2
Reduce
3/8 = 12/3x+2
Cross multiply
3(3x+2) = 12*8
Distribute and multiply
9x + 6 = 96
Subtract 6
9x = 90
Divide by 9
x = 10
Check:
9/24 = 12/3x+2
9/24 = 12/3*10 + 2
9/24 = 12/30 + 2
9/24 = 12/32
3/8 = 3/8 :)
The formula is
A=p (1+r)^t
A future value 7300
P present value 1500
R interest rate 0.0675
T time?
7300=1500 (1+0.0675)^t
Solve for t
Divide both sides by 1500
7300/1500=1.0675^t
Take the log for both sides
Log (7300/1500)=t×log (1.0675)
Divide both sides by log (1.0675)
T=log(7,300÷1,500)÷log(1.0675)
T=24.2 years round your answer to get 24 years
Hope it helps!
