Answer:

AB = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Segment addition postulate,

AC = AB + BC

24 = 2x+6+5x-3

Adding the like terms,

7x+3 = 24

Subtract 3 from both sides,

7x = 24-3

7x = 21

Divide by 7,

x = 21/7

x = 3

AB = 2x+6

AB = 2*3 + 6

AB = 6 + 6

AB = 12

Answer:

$\$63,163.16$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The equation of a exponential growth function is equal to

$y=a(1+r)^x$

where

y is the average annual salary

x is the number of years

r is the rate of change

a is the initial value

In this problem we have

$a=58,353\\r=2\%=2/100=0.02$

substitute

$y=58,353(1+0.02)^x$

$y=58,353(1.02)^x$

For x=4 years

$y=58,353(1.02)^4=\$63,163.16$

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{\sf t = 4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf 3(t+3)+5(3+2t)-76 = 0\\\\Expanding \ Parenthesis\\\\3t + 9 + 15 + 10t -76 = 0\\\\13t + 24 -76 = 0\\\\13t - 52 = 0\\\\Add \ 52 \ to \ both \ sides\\\\13t = 52\\\\Dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 13\\\\t = 52/13\\\\t = 4\\\\\rule[225]{225}{2}$
