Answer:

784000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Profit =  700000

Let us begin by finding what 12% of  700000 is

=12/100* 700000

=0.12* 700000

=84000

Hence the profit made last years was

=84000+700000

=784000

In order for RECT to be a rectangle, what must the value of x be?
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

x = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

If RECT is a rectangle, each of its interior angles are right angles, 90°. Since ∠RTC is split into two angles, the sum of the two angles must be 90°. (Angles that add to 90° are called complementary angles).

∠RTC = ∠RTE + ∠ETC     Formula for complementary angles

90 = 2x + 6 + 42                Substitute the angles

90 = 2x + 48               Combined like terms to simplify

Now isolate "x" to solve

90 - 48 = 2x + 48 - 48         Subtract 48 from both sides

42 = 2x

42/2 = 2x/2       Divide both sides by 2

x = 21

Therefore x is 21.

Solve the system of linear equations using elimination. −7x + 3y = −6 −3x + 3y = 6
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

x = 3 , y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{3 y - 7 x = -6 | (equation 1)

3 y - 3 x = 6 | (equation 2)

Subtract 3/7 × (equation 1) from equation 2:

{-(7 x) + 3 y = -6 | (equation 1)

0 x+(12 y)/7 = 60/7 | (equation 2)

Multiply equation 2 by 7/12:

{-(7 x) + 3 y = -6 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = 5 | (equation 2)

Subtract 3 × (equation 2) from equation 1:

{-(7 x)+0 y = -21 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = 5 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 1 by -7:

{x+0 y = 3 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = 5 | (equation 2)

Collect results:

Answer:  {x = 3 , y = 5
