Answer:

Equation: 500 = 50 + 15x

Step-by-step explanation:

where x is the number of weeks Nick will have to deposit $15 in order to accumulate $500, given that the first week he deposited $50.  

500 = 50 + 15x

500 = 50 + 15x

450 = 15x

x = 30

 

Now Nick will have to deposit $15 each week for 30 weeks.   This is in addition to the $50 deposit he made week 1.  So it will take him 31 total deposits to accumulate the $500.

Kryger [21]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 25 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

height = 20 ft

leg = 15 ft

length of the line = ?

To solve this problem use the Pythagorean theorem.

Height = short leg = b

leg = long leg = a

length of the line = hypotenuse = c

- Substitution

         c² = (20)² + (15)²

-Simplification

         c² = 400 + 225

         c² = 625

-Result

         c = \sqrt{625}

         c = 25 ft
