The new monthly rent amounts to $1,607.35.
We start with: Original rent = $1,550; Cost of Living Index = 3.7%
1. Calculate the product of the original rent and the Cost of Living Index
1,550 * 0.037 = 57.35

2. Combine the result with the original rent
1,550 + 57.35 = $1,607.35

Answer:
new rent = $1,607.35

Explanation:
Let's consider the original rent as x

Given that the increase in rent is 3.7%.
Thus:
new rent = x + 3.7% of x
new rent = x + 0.037 x

With x = 1550, we find:
new rent = 1550 + 0.037(1550)
new rent = 1550 + 57.35
new rent = $1,607.35

I hope this clarifies!:)

Svet_ta [4321]

Answer:
We will select the final option as the correct one.
Step-by-step explanation:
A land surveyor positions two stakes 500 ft apart and identifies the midpoint between them.
From that midpoint, he is tasked with placing another stake 100 ft away, maintaining equal distance to the two original stakes.  
To utilize the Perpendicular Bisector Theorem, the land surveyor must identify a line that is "perpendicular to the segment connecting the two stakes and passes through the midpoint of those stakes."
Thus, we will choose the last option as the correct answer.

Question 5 Six pairs of shoes cost as much as 1 coat, 2 pairs of jeans cost as much as 3 pairs of shoes, and 4 pairs of socks co
Zina [3914]
4 socks equal 1 pair of jeans
2 pairs of jeans equal 3 pairs of shoes
6 pairs of shoes equal 1 coat

Since 1 pair of jeans equals 4 socks, 2 jeans amount to 8 socks.
That means 8 socks correspond to 3 shoes.
If 3 shoes equal 8 socks, then 6 shoes would equal 16 socks.
Therefore, 16 socks are equivalent to 1 coat.
By this logic, 64 socks would translate to 64 divided by 16, which equals 4 coats.
