Answer:
B.2
Step-by-step explanation:
To make ΔA'B'C' from ΔABC, we need to use t
he scale factor =|A'B'|/|AB|=10/5=2
For this, we have to calculate how much money has to be invested at 2.3% interest compounded continuously to achieve $41,000 after 17 years
Formula: A= P * ( 1+r)^t
A= $41,000
r=0.023
t= 17
<span>41,000= P * (1+0.023)^17
</span>41,000= P * (1.023)^17
41,000= P * 1.4719
P= 41,000 : 1.4719
P= $27,731.59
Therefore, the answer is C. $27,731.59
I checked by doing the opposite, and I got $41,000.01, which is the closest to the question<span>

We assume that the dimension 5 has units of feet.
The area of each triangle will be
A = (1/2)bh
where b=2×(5 ft), h=(5 ft)tan(54°)
Then
A = (1/2)(2×5 ft)(5 ft)(tan(54°)
A = 25×tan(54°) ft²
There are 5 such triangles making up this pentagon, so the total area is
total area = 5×25×tan(54°) ft²
≈ 172 ft²
For this problem, we can say that corresponding angles are congruent, or the same, this also means that their angle measures have to be the same. Then, our equations for our angles will be vertical angles, which means that they must equal each other. So we would then write our equation as 3x+20=4x+10 or 4x+10=3x+20. Then, to combine like terms, we will subtract 3x from both sides, resulting in x+10=20. Then we will subtract 10 from both sides, resulting in x=10.
4-7x= 39
Subtract 4 from both sides
-7x= 35
Divide both sides by -7
x= -5
The value of x+1= (-5)+1= -4.
