no cause

5-x=y

5 is positive , x is negative

BUT

x-5=y

Answer:

not really

Step-by-step explanation:

because on the first equation you subtract 5and take to y as a negative and in the second equation 5 goes as a positive at least that is what i think

A right triangle has a hypotenuse length of 12, and one side length of 9. find the missing side length. do the side lengths form

Rina8888 [55]

Use the Pythagorean theorem:

$a^2+b^2=c^2$

c - a hypotenuse

a, b - legs

We have: a = 9 and c = 12. Substitute:

$9^2+b^2=12^2$

$81+b^2=144$ subtract 81 from both sides

$b^2=63\to b=\sqrt{63}\\\\b=\sqrt{9\cdot7}\\\\b=\sqrt9\cdot\sqrt7\\\\ \boxed{b=3\sqrt{7}}$

A Pythagorean triple consists of three positive integers a, b and c, such that

$a^2+b^2=c^2$ .

$b=3\sqrt{7}$ is not positive integer.

<h3>The sides of the triangle do not form a pythagorean triple.</h3>

When the effective interest rate is 9% per annum, what is the present value of a series of 50 annual payments that start at $100

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

$1,109.62

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first compute the future value FV.

In order to see the rule of formation, let's see the value (in $) for the first few years

End of year 0

1,000

End of year 1(capital + interest + new deposit)

1,000*(1.09)+10

End of year 2 (capital + interest + new deposit)

(1,000*(1.09)+10)*1.09 +10 =

$\bf 1,000*(1.09)^2+10(1+1.09)$

End of year 3 (capital + interest + new deposit)

$\bf (1,000*(1.09)^2+10(1+1.09))(1.09)+10=\\1,000*(1.09)^3+10(1+1.09+1.09^2)$

and we can see that at the end of year 50, the future value is

$\bf FV=1,000*(1.09)^{50}+10(1+1.09+(1.09)^2+...+(1.09)^{49}$

The sum

$\bf 1+1.09+(1.09)^2+...+(1.09)^{49}$

is the sum of a geometric sequence with common ratio 1.09 and is equal to

$\bf \frac{(1.09)^{50}-1}{1.09-1}=815.08356$

and the future value is then

$\bf FV=1,000*(1.09)^{50}+10*815.08356=82,508.35564$

The present value PV is

$\bf PV=\frac{FV}{(1.09)^{50}}=\frac{82508.35564}{74.35572}=1,109.616829\approx \$1,109.62$

rounded to the nearest hundredth.

Dennis_Churaev [7]

For the first one it is 200% because he walked twice as much today than yesterday. For the second one the answer is yes with a 14.49. (I'm not sure on the second.)
