Find the value of x and FG based on the diagram

Answer:

x should be 8 and FG should be 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering segment EF and FG look relatively the same in length, let's assume 2(x-5) = 7.

And assuming both segments are equal to 7, the total would be 14.

3x-12=14

add 12 to 14 which would get you 26

3x=26

divide 26 by 3

which would be 8.666 repeating which for the sake of this we'll round down to 8

check with 2(x-5)

2x-10=7

add 10 to 7

17/2 should equal 8.5 which we'll round down to 8

take this with a grain of salt as I don't know much about college math

Answer:

x = 9,   FG = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The question depends on the relationship EF + FG = EG  (the two shorter segments add up to the long segment).

7 + 2(x - 5) = 3(x - 4)

7 + 2x - 10 = 3x - 12

-3 + 2x = 3x - 12

-3 = x - 12

9 = x

The length FG can be found by substituting 9 for x.

FG = 2(x - 5) = 2(9 - 5) = 2(4) = 8

Consider the equation x +1 = 2.
kiruha [24]

Answer:

x^2 + 2x +1  = 2x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

(x+1) = 2

multiplying both sides by x +1

(x +1) (x+1) = 2 (x+1)

x^2 + 2x +1  = 2x + 2

Li Wei has several streams of income, as shown in the table. Some streams are active income and some are passive.
WARRIOR [948]

Based on the streams of income that Li Wei has, we can calculate that he has a total passive income of <u>$3,010.</u>

Passive income refers to income that is made without a person actively involving themselves in the activity generating the income.

In this scenario, the passive income sources are:

  • Stock dividends
  • Business investment interest
  • Royalties from a novel

Total passive income therefore is:

= 530 + 1,080 + 1,400

= $3,010

In conclusion, the total passive income is $3,010.

Assume the rate of inflation is 5​% per year for the next 2 years. What will be the cost of goods 2 years from​ now, adjusted fo
kirza4 [7]
The equation for inflation is
A = P*(1+r)^t
which is an exponential growth equation (if r > 0). If r < 0, then we have deflation.

where...
A = final price after t years
P = initial starting price
r = rate of inflation in decimal form 
t = number of years

In this case, 
A = unknown (we're solving for this)
P = 280 is the starting price
r = 0.05 is the decimal form of 5%
t = 2 years

We will plug these three pieces of info into the formula to get...
A = P*(1+r)^t
A = 280*(1+0.05)^2
A = 280*(1.05)^2
A = 280*(1.1025)
A = 308.70

Answer: 308.70 dollars
