Answer:

  x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The corresponding segments are proportional, so you can write any of several equations relating the different segment lengths. Here's one way:

  top segment/bottom segment = x/(x+5) = (x-2)/(x+1)

Multiply by the product of denominators:

  (x +1)x = (x +5)(x -2)

  x² +x = x² +3x -10 . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  10 = 2x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 10 -x -x² to both sides of the equation

  5 = x . . . . . divide by 2

Answer:

  y > 1/2x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The points shown on the line are separated by a "rise" of 1 unit vertically, and a "run" of 2 units horizontally. Its slope is rise/run = 1/2.

The line crosses the y-axis at y=2, so the y-intercept is 2.

The boundary line is then ...

  y = mx + b . . . . . . . where the slope is m and the y-intercept is b

  y = 1/2x + 2 . . . . . . the equation of the boundary line

__

The line is dashed, and the shaded area is above the line, where y-values are greater than the y-value on the line. Then the y-values on the line are NOT included in the solution set. The inequality is ...

  y > 1/2x + 2

In Year 1. Lee Inc. billed its customers $62,000 for services performed. The company collected $51,000 of the amount billed. Lee
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

$62,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Amount billed for services performed = $62,000

Bulled amount collected = $51,000

Operating expenses incurred = $39,000

Account payable = $31000

Cash from issue of common stock = $40,000

Cash invested on land purchase = $21,000

Amount of revenue to be reported in income statement : will be the total amount earned from the goods sales and services rendered. Hence, since the billing Given by Lee for the services rendered in Year 1 is reported as $62,000, Hence the amount of revenue to be reported in the income statement will be $62,000

Write 15 and 1/2 as a decimal.
pshichka [43]
Well If you mean't 15 1/2 it is 15.5 This is because a decimal is made for parting using place values like tenths, hundredths, thousandths, etc. The 1/2 part is is .5 because 5 is half of 10.
