Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

If you're looking for direct correlation, you're looking for a proportion for the second box. So you set the ratio of 2.5:5.5 up as a fraction. 2.5/5.5 and set it equal to the second box 3/x.

2.5     =      3

5.5             x

cross multiply

16.5=2.5x

and divide

16.5/2.5 and you get your answer

If you set aside $9000 at the end of each year for the next 22 years in a Roth IRA, how much will you have at your retirement 22
madam [21]

Answer:

$501,049.37

Step-by-step explanation:

For computing the amount after 22 years we need to applied the future value which is shown in the attachment below:

Given that

PMT = $9,000

NPER = 22 years  

Annual rate = 0.078

Quarterly= 0.078 ÷ 4 = 0.0195

Effective annual rate = (1.0195^4) - 1 = 0.0803113041

Now applied the formula which is given below

= -FV(RATE;NPER;PMT;PV)

After applying the above formula, the future value is $501,049.37

The trapezoids are similar. Both the left and right sides of the trapezoids are not parallel. Find the values of x, a, b, r° and
Artemon [7]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the figures are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

\frac{12}{x} = \frac{9}{6} ( cross- multiply )

9x = 72 ⇒ x = 8

Also

\frac{a}{5} = \frac{9}{6} ( cross- multiply )

6a = 45 ⇒ a = 7.5

And

\frac{b}{7} = \frac{9}{6} ( cross- multiply )

6b = 63 ⇒ b = 10.5

Corresponding angles in the 2 figures are congruent, thus

∠s = 83°

Each lower base angle is supplementary to the upper base angle on the same side, hence

∠r = 180° - 30° = 150°
