Answer:

$\text{C. }7.2$

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure, all three triangles are similar. By definition, the corresponding sides of similar polygons must be in a constant proportion. Therefore, we can set up the following proportion to solve for $x$ by dividing corresponding sides:

$\frac{x}{12}=\frac{12}{20},\\20x=144,\\x=\frac{144}{20}=\boxed{\text{C. }7.2}$

mestny [16]

Answer:

$\begin{array}{cccccc}{x} & {V} & {W} & {X} & {Y} & {Z} & P(x) & {0.20} & {0.20} & {0.20} & {0.20} & {0.20} \ \end{array}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$S = \{V,W,X,Y,Z\}$

$n(S) = 5$

Required

The probability model

To do this, we simply calculate the probability of each container.

So, we have:

$P(V) = \frac{n(V)}{n(S)} = \frac{1}{5} = 0.20$

$P(W) = \frac{n(W)}{n(S)} = \frac{1}{5} = 0.20$

$P(X) = \frac{n(X)}{n(S)} = \frac{1}{5} = 0.20$

$P(Y) = \frac{n(Y)}{n(S)} = \frac{1}{5} = 0.20$

$P(Z) = \frac{n(Z)}{n(S)} = \frac{1}{5} = 0.20$

So, the probability model is:

$\begin{array}{cccccc}{x} & {V} & {W} & {X} & {Y} & {Z} & P(x) & {0.20} & {0.20} & {0.20} & {0.20} & {0.20} \ \end{array}$

Suppose you deposited $100 in a savings account 3 years ago. The simple interest rate is 3.2 %. The interest that you earned in

astraxan [27]

It's not compounded interest, you just get $3.20 every year.
$100 * 0.032 = $3.20
$3.20 * 3 years = $9.60

a nut mixture of peanuts and macadamia nuts at a small fair is $1.00 per pound of peanuts and $3.26 per pound of macadamia nuts.

Studentka2010 [4]

This answer seems really hard but just don't overthink it. You pretty much don't have to do any math. It took me forever to do this because I was thinking so hard but i re-read it and the answer was right infront of me.

1.00p + 3.26n = $248.52
