It's 5. Just took this test and got this question right :)
Look at one of the vertices of the heptagon where two squares meet. The angles within the squares are both of measure 90 degrees, so together they make up 180 degrees.
All the angles at one vertex must clearly add up to 360 degrees. If the angles from the squares contribute a total of 180 degrees, then the two remaining angles (the interior angle of the heptagon and the marked angle) must also be supplementary and add to 180 degrees. This means we can treat the marked angles as exterior angles to the corresponding interior angle.
Finally, we know that for any convex polygon, the exterior angles (the angles that supplement the interior angles of the polygon) all add to 360 degrees (recall the exterior angle sum theorem). This means all the marked angles sum to 360 degrees as well, so the answer is B.
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
Let "a" represent the measure of the angle. Then ...
5a -30 = 2a +18
3a = 48 . . . . . . . add 30-2a
a = 16 . . . . . . . . . divide by 3
An angel is beyond measure, but this angle has measure 16.
Answer:
17.5% per annum
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given:</u>
Money invested = $20,000 at the age of 20 years.
Money expected to be $500,000 at the age of 40.
Time = 40 - 20 = 20 years
<em>Interest is compounded annually.</em>
<u>To find:</u>
Rate of growth = ?
<u>Solution:</u>
First of all, let us have a look at the formula for compound interest.
Where A is the amount after T years compounding at a rate of R% per annum. P is the principal amount.
Here, We are given:
P = $20,000
A = $500,000
T = 20 years
R = ?
Putting all the values in the formula:
![500000 = 20000 \times (1+\frac{R}{100})^{20}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{500000}{20000} =(1+\frac{R}{100})^{20}\\\Rightarrow 25 =(1+\frac{R}{100})^{20}\\\Rightarrow \sqrt[20]{25} =1+\frac{R}{100}\\\Rightarrow 1.175 = 1+0.01R\\\Rightarrow R \approx17.5\%](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=500000%20%3D%2020000%20%5Ctimes%20%281%2B%5Cfrac%7BR%7D%7B100%7D%29%5E%7B20%7D%5C%5C%5CRightarrow%20%5Cdfrac%7B500000%7D%7B20000%7D%20%3D%281%2B%5Cfrac%7BR%7D%7B100%7D%29%5E%7B20%7D%5C%5C%5CRightarrow%2025%20%3D%281%2B%5Cfrac%7BR%7D%7B100%7D%29%5E%7B20%7D%5C%5C%5CRightarrow%20%5Csqrt%5B20%5D%7B25%7D%20%3D1%2B%5Cfrac%7BR%7D%7B100%7D%5C%5C%5CRightarrow%201.175%20%3D%201%2B0.01R%5C%5C%5CRightarrow%20R%20%5Capprox17.5%5C%25)
So, the correct answer is <em>17.5% </em>per annum and compounding annually.
Answer:
960
Step-by-step explanation:
x = 0.6x + 384
Subtract 0.6x from both sides.
0.4x = 384
Divide both sides by 0.4
x = 960
