I would say D midpoint! Hope this helps :)
Your estimate of the baby pig's weight is 2 pounds. However the actual weight of it is only 16 pounds.
Let's solve for the percentage error of this.
=> 20 - 16 = 4 pounds
=> 4 / 16 = 0.25
=> 0.25 * 100% = 25%
Thus, you added 25% of the baby pig's weight
Answer: the cost of the car is $54600
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the cost of the car.
She pays a deposit equal to 20% of the cost of the car. This means that the amount of money that she paid as deposit would be
20/100 × x = 0.2 × x = 0.2x
The remaining balance would be
x - 0.2x = 0.8x
She will pay the balance in 8 equal payments of $5460 each month. This means that
0.8x/8 = 5460
0.1x = 5460
Dividing the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation by 0.1, it becomes
0.1x/0.1 = 5460/0.1
x = 54600
By geometry, there is a relationship between the tangent PA and the segments PB and PE, namely
PA^2=PB*PE
so
PE=PA^2/PA=6^2/4=9
BE=PB-PE=9-4=5
