-2 1/7 is the correct answer.
Answer:
Response 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Response 1 is the only wording that is self-consistent. Response 1 is the appropriate response.
___
Response 2 argues about angles, then concludes sides are congruent. This makes no sense.
Response 3 identifies congruent segments, but they are not opposite sides. The conclusion is unsupported.
2x + 5 = 3x - 45 [alternate interior angles]
3x - 2x = 5 + 45
x = 50
4y - 1 + 2x + 5 = 180 [supplementaly angles]
4y + 2(50) + 4 = 180
4y + 100 = 176
4y = 76
y = 19
So assuming simplet interest
find the change to find the interest
change=186000-129000=57000
simple interest=time times rate times principal
time is in years (8)
rate is in decimal
principal is amount invested (129000)
so
interest is 57000
57000=(8)(r)(129000)
57000=1032000r
divide both sides by 1032000
0.05523255813953488372093023255814=r
or
