Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
I already answer this on another question you actually made, but here it is again:
To do this, you need to use the Thales theorem.
You can actually apply this theorem and choose two sides of the figure to do it.In this case, I will choose segment LM and MN and look for a ratio with DE and EF like this:
LM/MN = DE/EF
This theorem states that you can stablish a ratio between two segments assuming that you have at least two paralels lines, like DL || EM || FN
Therefore, it's time to replace the values of those segments and solve for X:
LM/MN = DE/EF
14/16 = 6x -9 / 4x + 4
7/8 = 6x - 9 / 4x + 4
7(4x+4) = 8(6x-9)
28x + 28 = 48x - 72
72 + 28 = 48x - 28x
100 = 20x
x = 100/20
x = 5

Answer:
$5,674.30
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the Compound Amount formula:
A = P(1 + r/n)^(n*t), where r = APR as a decimal fraction = 0.1499
and n = 12 (compounded monthly).
Then A = $2,000(1 + 0.1499/12) )^(7*12)
= $2,000(1 + 0.0125)^84
= $2,000(1.0125)^84 = $2,000(2.837) = $5,674.30
Answer:
Krista put 0.40 in the first equation meant for the number of stamps.
Step-by-step explanation:
Krista's equation
0.40x+y=45
x+0.55y=18.75
The system of Equation should have been
x + y = 45 (1)
0.40x + 0.55y = 18.75 (2)
From (1)
x=45-y
Substitute x=45-y into (2)
0.40(45 - y) + 0.55y = 18.75
18 - 0.40y + 0.55y = 18.75
Collect like terms and you now have
0.55y - 0.40y = 18.75 - 18
0.15y = 0.75
Divide both sides of the equation by 0.15
y = 5
Substitute y=5 into (1)
x + y = 45
x+5=45
x=45-5
x=40
This shows that the stamps that cost 0.40 cents were 40 while those that cost 0.55 cents were 5 in number.
Krista's error:
Krista put 0.40 in the first equation meant for the number of stamps.
Is it c? because I got 8 / 8.95 =1.12
