Answer:

x = 24.99 or 25

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Using sin to figure out the angle of ABD, we can figure out the angle of CBD by subtracting it from 90°.</em>

sin y = (1/5)

y = 11.54°

90 - 11.54 = 78.46°

<em>Now using Pythagorean Theorem (</em><em>a²+b²=c²</em><em>) we can solve for line BD.</em>

1² + b² = 5²

1 + b² = 25

b² = 24

b = √24

<em>Now we can use tan to figure out the length of segment DC.</em>

tan(78.46) = z/√24

z = 23.99

<em>We can now combine the known length of segment AD and the length of DC to get </em><em>x</em><em>.</em>

1 + 23.99 = 24.99 or <u>about</u> 25.

A student deposits the same amount of money into her bank account each week. At the end of the second week she has $30 in her ac
Nonamiya [84]
The student will have $135 in her bank account at the end of the ninth week. You can fine this out by finding out the amount she deposits a week and to do this you would take the $30 and divide it by 2 because she had $30 at the end of the second week. 
30/2=15
So you see that the student deposits $15 each week, so to find out how much money she will have in 9 weeks you will multiply her $15 by 9.
15x9=135
So the student will have $135 at the end of the ninth week.

netineya [11]
We can put it into one step by multiplying the cost by 1.07 which basically takes into account the old cost of the jacket and the tax

the expression is
original amount * decimal multiplier (1.07) = new amount
