In triangle ABC segment DE is parallel to the side AC. (The endpoints of segment DE lie on the sides AB and BC respectively).
1 answer:
Answer:
6 dm
Step-by-step explanation:
Triangle DBE is similar to triangle ABC, so their side lengths are proportional.
DE/AC = DB/AB
The length of DB can be found from ...
DB +AD = AB
DB = AB -AD = (15 -10) dm = 5 dm
So, we can fill in the proportion:
DE/(18 dm) = (5 dm)/(15 dm)
DE = (18 dm)·(1/3) . . . . . . . . . . simplify, multiply by 18 dm
DE = 6 dm

Amount Financed: $2,650
Finance Charge: $484.69
Number of Payments: 36
(Finance Charge)/(Amount Financed)*100$=($484.69)/($2,650)*100$
(Finance Charge)/(Amount Financed)*100$=(0.1829)*100$
(Finance Charge)/(Amount Financed)*100$=$18.29
In the row of number of Payments 36, we look for:
(Finance Charge)/(Amount Financed)*100$=$18.29, and we see to which annual porcentage rate it corresponds in the first row
Answer: 11.25%

Answer: 11.25%
In the expression that you are given, n is the is number in the sequence. So in this scenario, n=16. So substitute the 16 into the equation. 
. So the 16th term in the sequence is -25.
