Answer: x = -7

Concept:

From the given graph, we can see that it is an isosceles triangle since the two base angles are congruent.

In geometry, an isosceles triangle is a triangle that has two sides of equal length.

If you are still confused, you may refer to the attachment below for a graphical explanation or tell me.

Solve:

Given information

First Side = 7

Second Side = x + 14

Given expression deducted from the definition of an isosceles triangle

Second Side = First Side

Substitute values into the expression

x + 14 = 7

Subtract 14 on both sides

x + 14 - 14 = 7 - 14

$\boxed{x=-7}$

Hope this helps!! :)

2. Harry just deposited $1500 into a savings account giving 6% interest compounded quarterly.a) How much will be in the account

Studentka2010 [4]

The formula for compound interest is:

$\begin{gathered} A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt} \\ \text{where,} \\ A=\text{ Final amount} \\ r=\text{ Interest rate} \\ n=\text{ Number of times interest applied per period} \\ t=\text{ Number of time period elapsed} \\ P=\text{ Intial principal balance} \end{gathered}$

Given data:

$\begin{gathered} P=\text{ \$1500} \\ r=6\text{ \%}=0.06 \\ n=4\text{ times (compounded quarterly)} \end{gathered}$

a. After ten years, that is t = 10 years, the amount in the account will be

$\begin{gathered} A=1500(1+\frac{0.06}{4})^{4\times10} \\ A=\text{ }1500(1+0.015)^{40} \\ A=\text{ }1500(1.015)^{40} \\ A=\text{ \$2721.03} \end{gathered}$

b. After twenty years, that is t = 20 years, the amount in the account will be:

$\begin{gathered} A=1500(1+\frac{0.06}{4})^{4\times20} \\ A=1500(1.015)^{4\times20} \\ A=1500(1.015)^{80} \\ A=\text{ \$}4935.99 \end{gathered}$

c. The time it takes for Harry's initial account value to double will be:

$\begin{gathered} A=2\text{ x initial value = 2 }\times\text{ \$1500 = \$3000} \\ 3000=1500(1.015)^{4t} \\ (1.015)^{4t}=\frac{3000}{1500} \\ (1.015)^{4t}=2 \\ \text{ Find the logarithm of both sides} \\ \ln (1.015)^{4t}=\ln 2 \\ 4t=\frac{\ln 2}{\ln 1.015} \\ 4t=46.56 \\ t=\frac{46.56}{4}=11.64 \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the time it takes Harry's initial account to double is approximately 11 years

a construction worker has rope 9 m long he needs to cut it in pieces that are each 3 /5 m long how many such pieces can he cut w

lapo4ka [179]

Dividing a whole number and an improper fraction seems tricky, but it just has one or two more steps than the normal process. First, convert the whole number "9" into a fraction by giving it a denominator of "1". It should look like 9/1. Now that both numbers are converted into like formats (improper fractions), you should have 9/1 divided by 5/3.

Second, flip 5/3 over into 3/5 - this is the "reciprocal". Now you have 9/1 divided by 3/5. It's just a matter of multiplying across the math sentence. Multiply the numerators (9x3) and the denominators (1 x 5). Your new fraction should be 27/5. This is your answer in the improper fraction format.

You can create other formats depending on the expected answer. For a mixed number, "divide your fraction UP" (27 divided by 5) which gives you 5 and 2/5. This can be further converted into 5.4 if you need your answer in decimal form.
