In an equilateral triangle all the sides are equal. This means that all the angles add up to 180 degrees.
Divide 180 by 3 and you get 60.
You want an exterior angle so you cut the angle in half ( it is now 30 )
Because the base and the line are parallel (form right angle if drew line connecting them) x is equal to
90-30=60
Answer:
Shorty has $142 after 7 month.
Step-by-step explanation:
The concept of compounded interest involves an initial capital that is reinvested month by month, it means that the initial capital plus the interest earned during the first month is reinvested on the second month and so on. The equation that describes the relationship between the final capital with the initial capital, the percentage of compounded interest and the time is:
Cf = Ci(1 + r)^n
where Cf: final capital (the money tha Shorty needs, $142)
Ci: initial capital (the money that Shorty has, $80)
r is the interest (9% = 0,09)
n: time (in months)
⇒142 = 80 (1 + 0,09)^n ⇒ 142/80 = (1,09)^n ⇒ 1.775 = (1,09)^n At this point you have to apply logarithms.
⇒ log (1.775) = n log (1.09) ⇒ n = log (1.775)/log (1.09) ⇒ n= 6.658
Shorty has $142 after 7 month.
I’m pretty sure the correct answer is B
