Which of the following is a capital expenditure? Payment of an account payable. Retirement of bonds payable. Payment of Federal income taxes. None of these answers are correct.

The correct answer is the last option: None of these answers are correct.

Explanation:

To begin with, the name of "Capital Expenditure", in the field of business refers specifically to the money that a company spends with the purpose to buy, maintain or improve its fixed assets. Therefore that it is quite simple to recognize the assets that are considered to be capital expenditure due to the fact that they are the ones in which the money is spended in order to extend the useful life that they have or when they are recently new and intend to stay in the company for a considerable period of time. Examples of capital expenditure are: vehicles, buildings, equipments or land.  

bd = 9 cm

step-by-step explanation:

in a 30°-60°-90° triangle, the ratio of side lengths is 1 : √3 : 2. that is, the longest side (hypotenuse) is twice the length of the shortest side.

all of the triangles in your geometry are 30°-60°-90° triangles. ac is the hypotenuse of δacd, and the short side of δabc.

the short side ad of δacd will be half the length of ac, so 3 cm. the hypotenuse ab of δabc will be twice the length of ac, so 12 cm. segment bd is the difference of the lengths ab and ad, so is

bd = ab -ad

bd = 12 cm - 3 cm = 9 cm

comment on side length ratios

you can figure the ratios of side lengths in a 30°-60°-90° triangle by considering the trig ratios of the angles. or you can figure the length of the altitude of an equilateral triangle of side length 2 using the pythagorean theorem.
