Answer:

On her daughter’s 12th birthday, she should invest $6,976.74 as principal.

Explanation:

  We have  I = prt, where I indicates simple interest, p denotes principal, r is the interest rate, and t signifies time in years.

Here p + I = $12,000

   Thus, I = 12000-p

 The interest rate r = 12% = 0.12

 Duration = 18 - 12 = 6 years.

Inserting values

   12000-p = p x 0.12 x 6

  p + 0.72 p = 12000

  1.72 p = 12000

   p = 6976.74 $

Thus, she should put in $6,976.74 as principal on her daughter’s 12th birthday.

Find the value of x in the isosceles triangle shown below.
Leona [12115]

Solution:

x=8

Detailed explanation:

This isosceles triangle consists of two right triangles with sides equal to 8,\sqrt{80}, and y

Considering we possess two sides of a right triangle, determining the third side can be achieved using the Pythagorean Theorem

(\sqrt{80} )^2=8^2+y^2\\\\80=64+y^2\\\\y^2=16\\\\y=4

Because it is an isosceles triangle, these two right triangles are the same, thus x=2y

Hence, x=2(4)=8

Erika is writing a coordinate proof to show that the diagonals of a rectangle are congruent. She begins by assigning coordinates
Leona [12115]

Answer:

Option C is the right choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given coordinates define a rectangle, and our objective is to show that the diagonals JL and KM are congruent.

We know that rectangles possess four right angles.

To prove the congruence of the diagonals JL and KM, we will utilize the Pythagorean theorem.

In triangle KLM, KL has a length of b units while LM has a length of a units. By applying the Pythagorean theorem \sqrt(a^{2}+b^{2})=KM

In triangle JML, JM is b units long, and LM remains a units long. We again can apply the Pythagorean theorem \sqrt(a^{2}+b^{2})=JL

Thus, we find that \sqrt(a^{2}+b^{2})=KM=LM and option C is the correct choice.

A photographer sells large photos for $27 profit and small photos for an $11 profit.This past year,she sold 126 photos and made
Leona [12115]

Answer:

The photographer sold 72 small photos and 54 large photos.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can create a system of equations based on the details provided. Let X represent small photos and Z represent large photos.

It is given that the total number of photos sold is 126:

X + Z = 126

Additionally, she generated $2,250 from selling specific amounts of small and large photos, stated as:

$2,250 = $11X + $27Z

From the first equation, we know X=126-Z. Substituting this into the second equation gives:

2,250 = 11(126-Z) + 27Z

2,250 = 1,386 - 11Z + 27Z

2,250 - 1,386 = 16Z

864 = 16Z

Z = 864/16

Z = 54, which indicates the number of large photos sold. To find X:

X = 126 - Z

X = 126 - 54

X = 72, representing the small photos sold.
