Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

We are dealing with similaraty and similar shapes length are in proportion so we are going to set up an proportion.

Length of left triangle small side/ Length of left triangle long side= length of right triangle small side/length of right triangle long side

Answer:

  • x = 8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>As the triangles are similar, their corresponding sides will have same ratio:</u>

  • left short side /right short side = left long side / right long side

or simpler

  • s₁/s₂ = l₁/l₂

<u>Substitute values to find the missing one:</u>

  • 4/x = 10/20
  • 4/x = 1/2
  • x = 4*2
  • x = 8

The missing side is 8 inches long

Assume ABC Company deposits $90,000 with First National Bank in an account earning interest at 6% per annum, compounded semi-ann
maw [93]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm goig to assume that the formula we need here is the following:

A(t)=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{(n)(t)

where A(t) is the amount in the account after the compounding is done, n is the number of times per year the compounding occurs, r is the rate in decimal form, and t is the time in years.  Filling in accordingly,

A(t)=90000(1+\frac{.06}{2})^{(2)(5)} and simplifying a bit,

A(t)=90000(1.03)^{10} and simplifying a bit more,

A(t) = 90000(1.343916379) so

the amount in the account after 5 years is

A(t) = 120,952.47

Isabella spends $4.87 on paintbrushes the paintbrushes and paint how many of each item does she buy explain how you found your a
AveGali [126]
You need to use a system of equations with 2 variables
where x= # of paintbrushes bought
and y= # of paint units bought

the first equation would be
.95x+.99y=4.87

Usually there is more information given in these problems so that you can make the second equation. Did the problem say how many total items were bought or anything else because given this information you cannot make a second equation and therefore cannot solve for both variables. Also, the wording is unclear, did she spend 4.87 on just paintbrushes or both brushes and paint.
