The model y = 500(1.035)^x, indicates the value of an investment, where x is the number of whole years. What's the growth factor (the ratio from one year to the next)?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Given:
model y = 500(1.035)^x is the value of the an investment after x years.

the growth factor of this model is 1.035

Let us assume that x = 3 and x = 2

y = 500(1.035)² = 500 (1.07) = 535
y = 500(1.035)³ = 500 (1.11) = 555

growth factor = 555 / 535 = 1.037 or 1.035

Robert wants to install windows in a bus barn to improve the airflow in the summer months. If Robert makes his own screens, he can save money. To have screen material to fold over the window frame, Robert needs to cut 5 1/2 foot by 5 1/2 foot squares. The back wall by the offices requires four windows.

Inequality word problem

7 less than -2 times a number X is greater than or equal to 41

Answers

less than means minus so 7 less than means -7

-2 times a number x means -2 times x or -2x

is greater than or equal to means >

41=41


so
-7+-2x>41
-2x-7>41
add 7 to both sides
-2x>48
divide both sides by -2
remember to flip sign since divided by negative

What is the area of the triangle when a=14 and c=50 what is b?

Answers


No answer is possible.
Without the picture ... or a detailed explanation ...
it's not possible to tell what 'b' is.
B is 116. The area of any triangle should equal 180. So you add 14 plus 50 to get 64 and then you subtract 180 minus 64 and get 116. Got it?

Suppose ∠A and ∠B are complementary angles, m∠A = (3x + 5)°, andm∠B = (2x – 15)°. Solve for x and then find m∠A and m∠B.

Answers

         m∠A + m∠B = 90
(3x + 5) + (2x - 15) = 90
(3x + 2x) + (5 - 15) = 90
                  5x - 10 = 90
                      + 10  + 10
                         5x = 100
                          5      5
                           x = 20

m∠A = 3x + 5
m∠A = 3(20) + 5
m∠A = 60 + 5
m∠A = 65

m∠B = 2x - 15
m∠B = 2(20) - 15
m∠B = 40 - 15
m∠B = 25
m∠A + m∠B = 90

(3x + 5) + (2x - 15) = 90

(3x + 2x) + (5 - 15) = 90

5x - 10 = 90

5x - 10 +10 = 90+10

5x = 100

5x/5 = 100/5      Divide \ both \ sides \ by \ 5

x = 20                 Solutions

m∠A = 3x + 5     (x=20)

m∠A = 3(20) + 5          Substitute \ x \ for \ 20

m∠A = 60 + 5               Simplify

m∠A = 65


m∠B = 2x - 15

m∠B = 2(20) - 15

m∠B = 40 - 15

m∠B = 25
