A number line goes from 0 to 10. A closed circle is shown at point 0 and 5. Point 0 is labeled Start and point 5 is labeled Finish. A 5-mile race takes place along a straight course. The number line shows the distance, in miles, from start to finish. The race director would like to place a water station along the course such that the distance from the start to the water station and the water station to the finish line is in a 7:5 ratio. Where would the water station be located? Round to the nearest tenth of a mile, if necessary. The water station will be placed about miles from the start.

step-by-step explanation:

she should of added 9^2 and 12^2. that is because it is a^2+b^2=c^2. c^2 is the hypotenuse and should always be bigger than the other two numbers. which is why she should of added 9 squared and 12 squared together instead of 15 squared.

or

step-by-step explanation:

we need to solve for 'x' the following equation:  

we have that:

⇒

⇒ ⇒

factorizing, we get that:

  ⇒

then, the solutions are: or

nothing extraneous has been found!

soo this can be solve by using the formula:

f = p( 1 + i)^ n

where f is the future profit

p is the initial profit

i is the percent increase

n is the number of years

a . f = 30000 ( 1.05)^n

b. f = 30000 ( 1.05)^15

f = $62,368
