The value of x in the similar triangles is 18

Similar triangles have the same shapes but may have different sizes.

Corresponding side of similar triangles are a ratio of each other.

Therefore,

UV / BC = AU / AB

Hence,

UV = 444 units

BC = 703

AU = 20x + 108

AB = 20x + 108 + 273 = 20x + 381

Therefore,

444 / 703 = 20x + 108 /  20x + 381

cross multiply

444( 20x + 381) = 703(20x + 108)

8880x + 169164 = 14060x + 75924

8880x  - 14060x  = 75924 -  169164

-5180x = -93240

x = -93240 / -5180

x = 18

Therefore, the value of x in the similar triangles is 18

The number of appliances that Guillermo needs to sell this month to main an average of 80 sales per month is 72 units.

An average refers to a central value obtained after adding together several amounts and then dividing this total by the number of variables added.

An average is a central value in a dataset.

Average sales per month = 80 units

Number of months involved = 5 months

Total for five months based on the average = 400 units

Total units sold in four months = 328 (95 + 47 + 114 + 72)

Sales units required to meet the average target = 72 (400 - 328)

Thus, the number of appliances that Guillermo needs to sell this month to main an average of 80 sales per month is 72 units.

Answer:

First  angle:

x =32

Second angle:

3x

3(32) = 96

Third angle:

2x - 12

2(32) -12 =52

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 3x + 2x - 12 = 180  The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180

6x -12 = 180  Combine the x terms

6x = 192  add 12 to both sides

x = 32

Check: 52 + 96 + 32 = 180

The function is increasing on the interval (3, ∞)

Hello,

If we want to factor the expression, we have to solve

3x² + 10x + 8 = 0

a = 3 ; b = 10 ; c = 8

∆ = b² - 4ac = 10² - 4 × 3 × 8 = 4 > 0

x1 = (-b - √∆)/2a = (-10 - 2)/6 = -12/6 = -2

x2 = (-b + √∆)/2a = (-10 + 2)/6 = -8/6 = -4/3

Factor :

a (x - x1)(x - x2)

= 3(x + 2)(x + 4/3)

The monthly payments for each add-on interest loan is computed to be $29.71.

Given Information and Formula Used

Principal Amount of the loan, P = $1150

Rate of Interest of the loan, R = 6%

Term of loan in years, T = 4

The formula for simple interest is given as follows,

I = (P × R × T)/100

The formula for amount of add-on interest loan is given by, A = P + I

Calculating the Interest of the Loan

Interest of the loan, I = (P × R × T)/100

Now, substituting the given values of P, R, and T in the above formula, we get,

I = $ (1150 × 6 × 4)/100

I = $ 27600/100

I = $276

Calculating the Total Monthly Payment for the Loan

Amount of loan, A = P+I

A = $1150 + $276

A = $1426

Monthly payment of the loan with interest = A/(4×12)

= $ 1426/48

= $29.71

Thus, the monthly payments for each add-on interest loan comes out to be $29.71.

Levada borrows $30,900 from her bank to open a florist shop at rate of 0.98% per month.

If the initial amount (also called as principal amount) is P, and the interest rate is R% annually, and it is left for T years for that simple interest, then the interest amount earned is given by:

[tex]I = \dfrac{P \times R \times T}{100}[/tex]

It is given that Levada borrows $30,900 from her bank to open a florist shop. She agrees to repay the money in 18 months with simple annual interest of 5.5%.

P = $30,900

The amount of money Craig paid more than Tim if the shop has an offer of reduction if a particular amount is spent is £88.

The shop discount:

£5 reduction if you spend more than £100

or

£10 reduction if you spend more than £140

or

£20 reduction if you spend more than £180

Cost of a shirt = £49

Tim buys 3 shirts

Total cost of Tim's shirt = £49 × 3

= £147

Amount Tim paid = £147 - £10

= £137

Craig buys 5 shirts

Total cost of Craig's shirt = £49 × 5

Answer:

  22.81

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance formula can be used to find the distances between pairs of vertices. The perimeter is the sum of those distances.

The distance formula is ...

  d = √((x2 -x1)^2 +(y2 -y1)^2)

Using this formula the triangle side lengths are ...

  AB = √((6 -(-2))^2 +(2 -2)^2) = √(8^2) = 8

  BC = √((0 -6)^2 +(8 -2)^2) = √(6^2 +6^2) = 6√2

  CA = √((-2 -0)^2 +(2 -8)^2) = √(4 +36) = √40

The perimeter of the triangle is the sum of these lengths:

  P = 8 +6√2 +2√10 ≈ 22.8098

The perimeter is about 22.81 units.

This graph has its maximum at 4. There is no minimum while the inflection is at 2, 10/3.

We have ( x-2²) (x-4)

x-2²) = 0, or x - 4

x - 2 = 0, x = 2

Hence we can see that the graph has its minimum at x = 4

b. The graph here does not have a local maximum

To do this you have to differentiate the equation

Use the product rule of differentiation in order to solve for the solution.

(x-2)²[ (x-4) 2 (x-2)]

This would then give us

x -2, 3x -10

In both equations we have to make x the subject of the equation

X = 2, x = 10/3

The perpendicular transversal theorem states that in a plane, if a line is perpendicular to one of two parallel lines, then it is also perpendicular to the other line.

Now, since we are told that Line X is perpendicular to Line A, then it means that Line X is also perpendicular to line B.

The inverse of perpendicular transversal theorem states that if there are two perpendicular lines to a straight line, they're parallel to each other. Thus, it means that Line X is parallel to Line Y and similarly, line A is parallel to Line B.
