Answer: x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(1/4) (8x + 12) - 4x = -1

Expand parentheses

(1/4) (8x) + (1/4) (12) - 4x = -1

2x + 3 - 4x = -1

Combine like terms

-2x + 3 = -1

Subtract 3 on both sides

-2x + 3 - 3 = -1 - 3

-2x = -4

Divide -2 on both sides

-2x / -2 = -4 / -2

x = 2

Hope this helps!! :)

Given: measure of angle KJ = 124°, measure of IC =38° Find: m∠CQJ, m∠LIJ.

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

Part 1) $m$

Part 2) $m$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) Find the measure of angle CQJ

we know that

The measure of the interior angle is the semi-sum of the arcs comprising it and its opposite.

$m$

$arc\ IK+arc\ CJ=360\°-(arc\ IC+arc\ KJ)$

substitute the values

$arc\ IK+arc\ CJ=360\°-(38\°+124\°)=198\°$

$m$

Part 2) Find the measure of angle LIJ

step 1

Find the measure of angle IJL

we know that

The inscribed angle is half that of the arc it comprises.

$m$

substitute the values

$m$

step 2

Find the measure of angle ILJ

we know that

The measurement of the external angle is the semi-difference of the arcs it encompasses.

$m$

substitute the values

$m$

step 3

Find the measure of angle LIJ

Remember that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle must be equal to 180 degrees

In the triangle LIJ

$m$

substitute the values

$m$

You have decided to invest $1000 in a savings bond that pays 4% interest, compounded semi-annually. What will the bond be worth

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

$2191.12

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the value of a bond after 10 years, if you invest $1000 in a savings bond that pays 4% interest, compounded semi-annually.

$FV=C_0\times (1+r)^n$ , where,

$C_0=\text{Initial amount}$ ,

r = Rate of return in decimal form.

n = Number of periods.

Since interest is compounded semi-annually, so 'n' will be 2 times 10 that is 20.

$4\%=\frac{4}{100}=0.04$

$FV=\$1,000\times (1+0.04)^{20}$

$FV=\$1,000\times (1.04)^{20}$

$FV=\$1,000\times 2.1911231430334194$

$FV=\$2191.1231430334194$

$FV\approx \$2191.12$

Therefore, the bond would be $2191.12 worth in 10 years.
