Answer:  The required values are

x = 12 units, ST = 60 units and SU = 120 units.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that T is the midpoint of SU, where

ST = 5x  and  TU = 3x + 24.

We are to find the values of x, ST and SU.

Since T is the midpoint of SU, so we get

ST=TU\\\\\Rightarrow 5x=3x+24\\\\\Rightarrow 5x-3x=24\\\\\Rightarrow 2x=24\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{24}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow x=12.

So, the value of x is 12.

Therefore,

ST=5\times12=60

and

SU=5x+3x+24=8x+24=8\times12+24=96+24=120.

Thus, the required values are

x = 12 units, ST = 60 units and SU = 120 units.

If T is the Midpoint of line SU the the values of x, ST and SU are;

x= 12

ST= 60

SU= 120

<h2>Further Explanation</h2><h3>Line segment </h3>
  • A line segment is a piece of a line that has two endpoints.
<h3>A ray </h3>
  • It is a part of a line with one end point and proceeds on in one direction.
<h3>A line </h3>
  • A line refers to collection of line along a straight path proceeding in opposite directions with no endpoints.
<h3>Mid-point </h3>
  • Mid-point is a point on a given line that divides it into two equal parts.
  • Mid-point can be calculated by the formula;
  • Mid point =(\frac{(x_{1} +x_{2})}{2} ), (\frac{(y_{1} +y_{2})}{2})

Where; ((x_{1} ,y_{1}), (x_{2},y_{2}) are co-ordinates of the endpoints of the line.

Therefore;

In this case;

If T is the mid-point of SU then;

ST is equal to TU

But; ST = 5x and TU = 3x+24

Hence;

5x =3x+24

Putting like terms together

5x-3x = 24

2x =24

Dividing both sides by 2

x = 12

Therefore;

x = 12

But;

ST = 5x

            = 5(12)

             = 60

TU = 3x + 24

            = 3(12)+ 24

            = 36 + 24

            = 60

Therefore;

ST = TU and

SU = 120 units

Dan invests £1200 into his bank account. He receives 5% per year compound interest. How much will dan have after5 years?
solmaris [256]

Answer:

Dan will have $1,531.53 after 5 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer, you can use the following formula to calculate the future value:

F= P(1 + r)^t

F= Future value

P= Present value= 1200

r= rate of interest= 5%

t= time= 5

F=1200(1+0.05)^5

A=1200(1.05)^5

A=1531.53

According to this, the answer is that Dan will have $1,531.53 after 5 years.

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

Mean = 30516.67

Standard deviation, s = 3996.55

P(x < 27000) = 0.0011518

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data:

28500 35500 32600 36000 34000 25700 27500 29000 24600 31500 34500 26800

Mean, xbar = Σx / n = 366200 /12 = 30516.67

Standard deviation, s = [√Σ(x - xbar) / n-1]

Using calculator, s = 3996.55

The ZSCORE = (x - mean) / s/√n

Zscore = (27000 - 30516.67) / (3996.55/√12)

Zscore = - 3516.67 / 1153.7046

Zscore = - 3.048

P(x < 27000) = P(Z < - 3.049) = 0.0011518
