Answer: FIRST OPTION.
Step-by-step explanation:
Regular polygons are those polygons whose sides are equal in length and whose angles are all equal.
By definition each interior angle of a Regular polygon,is:
(In degrees)
Where "n" is the number of sides of the polygon.
Observe the Regular polygon given in the exercise.
Since it has 6 sides, you can conclude that it is an Hexagon. Then:
Substituting into and evaluating, you get:
Knowing this, you can write the following equation:
Finally, you must solve for "x" in order to find its value. This is:
Hello! I can help you with this!
a. The function that would best represent Samantha's account is f(5) = 500(1 + 0.04)^5. This is because $500 is the principal, the interest rate is 4%, and we're looking for the amount in the savings account 5 years later.
b. Okay. 1 = 0.04 is 1.04. 1.04^5 is 1.216652902. It's a long decimal, but don't delete it. Multiply that decimal by 500 and you get 608.32645 and other numbers behind it or 608 when rounded to the nearest dollar. Samantha will have about $608 in her savings account in 5 years.
Note: The formula goes like this: f(x) = P(1 + r)^x. This means, you add 1 and the simple interest rate in decimal form together and raise that up by the exponent. There is no shortcuts for this, so you'll have to use the calculator. There will be a very long decimal, but don't clear it. Instead, multiply it by the principal to get the answer. It seems very complicating, but if you do this right, it gets easier overtime and you'll make less errors. There are more complex problems out there, so this formula is very important, but it was kept simple for this question.
I also think the answer is D, who else agrees with me? Btw, thank you for posting this question. I enjoy answering fun things sometimes.
1-(1/5)= 4/5 or 28/35 if you multiply top and bottom by 5
Subtract the sale price from the original price then divide the difference by the original price.
Guitar 1: 160 -100 = 60
60/160 = 0.375 x 100 = 37.5%
Guitar 2: 250 - 150 = 100
100/250 = 0.4 x 100 = 40%
The answer is the second guitar has a greater percent change of approximately 40%
