Sasha spent half of her allowance going to the movies. She washed the family car and earned $6. What is her weekly allowance if she ended with $15?

Answer:

here you go....

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of x is 15 and the value of y is 4 for the given triangle.

According to the question,

We have the following information:

We have a figure of triangle and a line parallel to the base is drawn. Some measurements of the sides are given.

Now, to find the values of x and y, we will use Basic Proportionality theorem which states that the ratio of the corresponding sides are equal.

For the larger triangle, we have:

12/y = 18/6

Using the cross multiplication method:

y = 12*6/18

y = 4

Now, using the same theorem for the smaller triangle:

12/y = x/5

12/4 = x/5

Using the cross multiplication method:

x = 15

Hence, the value of x is 15 and the value of y is 4 for the given triangle.

Answer:

0.83 repeating 3

Step-by-step explanation:

5 goes in the box and 6 goes outside. you can't put 6 into 5 so you would put a 0 on the top and a decimal point. now you would write a 0 next to the 5 and you would do 6×8=48 and so put 8 next to the 0 and the decimal point. then subtract 50-48 which will be 2. Put another 0 next to the 50 and bring it down. you will have 20 which you do 6×3=18. and so put a 3 next to 0.8 and you will subtract 20-18=2. It will be repeating so put a line at the top of 3 to show that it's repeating.

The statement that describes the account growth is D. The account is growing exponentially at an annual interest rate of 2.00%.

From the information, the table shows the balance of an investment account at the beginning of each year the account was held.

The percentage change for the second year will be:

= (510 - 500) / 500 × 100

= 10/500 × 100

= 2%

The percentage change for the third year will be:

= (520.20 - 510) / 510 × 100

Step-by-step explanation:

If the team buys 18 jerseys for a total of (18x-36) dollars then we can conclude that the discount the team has received is $36.

According to the question,

We have the following information:

A soccer team receives a discount on each jersey purchased. The original price of each jersey is x dollars. The team buys 18 jerseys for a total of (18x-36) dollars.

Now, the original price of 18 jerseys will be 18x.

Now, when 36 is subtracted from 18x to find the total cost then it means that this is the discount from the original price.

Hence, if the team buys 18 jerseys for a total of (18x-36) dollars then we can conclude that the discount the team has received is $36.

The slope of the line is -1/2, the coordinates of midpoint is (1,3) and the equation of perpendicular bisector is y = 2x + 1

The slope of a line is a measure of its steepness.

Given that, a line segment has end points = A(-1,4) and B(3,2)

(i) Slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = -1/2

(ii) Coordinates of the midpoint of a line = (Xm, Ym) = (x₁ + x₂)/2, (y₁ + y₂)/2

(Xm, Ym) = (-1+3)/2, (4+2)/2 = (1,3)

(iii) The slope of the two lines perpendicular to each other are negative reciprocal of each other, so, slope of the line perpendicular to the given line is = 2

Standard equation of a line = y = mx + c

Since the line is the perpendicular bisector of AB, it will pass through (1,3)

Solving for c,

3 = 2*1 + c

c = 1

Therefore, the equation of the of line perpendicular to AB is

y = 2x + 1

Hence, the slope of the line is -1/2, the coordinates of midpoint is (1,3) and the equation of perpendicular bisector is y = 2x + 1

The coordinates of the image of reflecting (3, -2) across the line y = 5 are (3, 12)

When we reflect a point (x, y) across a horizontal line of the form:

y = a

The coordinates of the image after the reflection are:

(x, 2a - y)

In this case we have the point (3, -2), and we reflect this across the line y = 5, then the new coordinates are:

The graph of this quadratic function (x² + 3x - 108) is shown in the image attached below. Also, the two roots of this quadratic equation (x² + 3x - 108) are -12 and 9, while the axis of symmetry (vertex) is equal to -1.5.

In Mathematics, a quadratic function is a mathematical expression which defines and represent the relationship that exists between two or more variable on a graph.

Mathematically, the graph of every quadratic functions is either an upward or downward parabola, which is typically a u-shaped curve. This ultimately implies that, the graph of a quadratic function would always form a parabolic curve. For this quadratic function, the graph is a upward parabola because the coefficient of x² is positive and the value of "a" is greater than zero.

Next, we would determine the axis of symmetry (vertex) of this quadratic function:

Axis of symmetry (vertex), Xmax = -b/2a

Axis of symmetry (vertex), Xmax = -3/2(1)

Axis of symmetry (vertex), Xmax = -1.5.

To find the value of a function at x = -2, put in all the places of  in the function.

Polynomial is made up of two words, poly, and nomial. "Poly" means many, and "nomial" means the term, and hence when they are combined, we can say that polynomials are "algebraic expressions with many terms".

Polynomial functions are expressions that may contain variables of varying degrees, coefficients, positive exponents, and constants.

Estimate product of (-25.31) (9.61) using compatible numbers is equal to -250.

As given in the question,

Given expression is equal to :

( -25.31 ) ( 9.61 )

Compatible numbers to calculate the estimate product we have,

Compatible number for ( -25.31 ) is equal to ( -25 ) .

-25 > -25.31 > -26

-25.31 is more nearer to -25 .

Now, 9 < 9.61 < 10

Compatible number for 9.61 is equal to 10 as 9.61 is more close to 10.

( -25.31 ) × ( 9.61 )

= ( -25 ) × (10)

In the given circle the length of the chord marked x is

We know that the length of the chord is bisected by the perpendicular from the center of the circle.

Therefore the length of the chord is 7 × 2 = 14 units.

Again from the chord properties of a circle we know that, chords that are equidistant from the center are equal.

Since both the chords are at a distance of 9 units hence both chord lengths

Hence the length of the other chord = 14 units.

∴ x = 14
