Consider the standard form equation 2x-Ry=30. What value of R causes the graph to have a y-intercept of 5?

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

R = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation of the line is 2x - Ry = 30

We know that the equation of a line with a as x-intercept and b as y-intercept is $\frac{x}{a} +\frac{y}{b} =1$

Now convert the above given line to the standard form

Divide the line by 30 we get

$\frac{2x}{30}-\frac{Ry}{30} =\frac{30}{30}$

$\frac{x}{15} -\frac{y}{\frac{30}{R} } =1$

Here the y-intercept is 30/R

Given y-intercept = 5

$\frac{30}{R} =5$

R = 6

An employee puts 10000 in a retirement account that offers 4% interest. How much will he have in 12 years

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

14800

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for simple interest (I) in terms of principal (P), rate (R) and time (T) is given as follows;

I = P x R x T / 100 ------------- (i)

Given:

Principal (P) = Initial amount being put into the account = 10000

Rate (R) = The interest rate being offered by the account manager = 4%

Time (T) = Time taken = 12 years

Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows:

I = 10000 x 4 x 12 / 100

I = 4800

Therefore, the initial amount will yield an interest of 4800 for those 12 years.

The total amount the employee will thus have in 12 years will be the sum of the initial amount and the interest. i.e

Amount = P + I

Amount = 10000 + 4800

Amount = 14800

Diagonal of the parallelogram divides the parallelogram in to two equal areas.

So area of parallelogram = 2(area of triangle)

According to the given diagram,

AB= 8, AD = 5 and BD = 11

So according to the Heron's formula,

Area of triangle = $\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}\\\\where,\\ s =\frac{a + b + c }{2}$

and a, b and c are the three sides of the triangle

Area of triangle ABD = $s=\frac{8 + 5 + 11}{2} \\\\s = \frac{24}{2}\\\\s = 12Area of triangle ABD = \sqrt{12(12 - 8) (12 - 5) (12 - 11)}\\\\Area of triangle ABD = \sqrt{12(4) (7) (1)}\\\\Area of triangle ABD = \sqrt{336}\\\\Area of triangle ABD = 18.33$

So, area of parallelogram ABCD = 2(area of triangle ABD)

area of parallelogram ABCD = 2 (18.33)

area of parallelogram ABCD = 36.66

area of parallelogram ABCD = 36.7 sq. units

4x=90-46

x=44/4

x=11

12 no

They are complementary angles

6 no

angle B+27=180 degree(being straight line)

angle B=180-27

angle B=153
