Mathematics

Tanya [424]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

\$40000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by finding Sandra's salary this year.

We are given that she saved $3,360 or 8% of her total salary this year.

Let's represent her total salary this year as "x" and set up an equation:

\$3360=8\%x\\

Note that any percentage is equivalent to that number over 100.

$3360=\frac{8}{100}x

Multiply 100 to both sides:

336000=8x

Divide both sides by 8

x=42000

The question states "this year her salary was $2000 more than in the previous year".

This means that her salary in the previous year is equivalent to:

42000-2000=40000

What is the sum of the measures of the exterior angles of a nonagon?
olchik [2.2K]

For this case we have by definition, that the sum of the exterior angles of a polygon is equal to 360 degrees, only when considering only one exterior angle for each vertex of the polygon, regardless of the number of sides it possesses. That said we have to:

The external angle of a regular polygon is given by:

\frac {360} {n}

Where:

n: It is the number of sides of the polygon

Then, for a nonagon each exterior angle will measure:

\frac {360} {9} = 40 degrees

Answer:

40 degrees each exterior angle

360 degrees the sum

What’s the inverse of <br> f(x) = -2 + 2/3x
saveliy_v [14]

So the steps to find the inverse are:

  1. Change f(x) to y
  2. Switch the positions of x and y
  3. Solve for y
  4. Change y to f^-1(x)

f(x)=-2+ \frac{2}{3}x\\\\y=-2+ \frac{2}{3}x\\\\x=-2+ \frac{2}{3}y

Now let's solve for y as such:

x=-2+ \frac{2}{3}y \\\\x+2=\frac{2}{3}y\\\\\frac{3}{2} (x+2)=y\\\\\frac{3}{2}x+3=y\\\\\frac{3}{2}x+3=f^{-1}(x)

<u>Your inverse is f^-1(x) = 3/2x + 3</u>

How many unique planes can be determined by four noncoplanar points?
marta [7]

Answer:

Four unique planes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the points are non co-planar, triangular planes can be formed by the joining of three points

The points will therefore appear to be at the corners of a triangular pyramid or tetrahedron such that together the four points will form a three dimensional figure bounded by triangular planes

The number of triangular planes that can therefore be formed is given by the combination of four objects taking three at a time as follows;

₄C₃ = 4!/(3!×(4-3)! = 4

Which gives four possible unique planes.
