The price of an item yesterday was $140 Today, the price rose to $322 Find the percentage increase.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

130% increase

Step-by-step explanation:

(322-140)/140(100)=130% increase.

(you set the final price on top, and original price in the denominator, and x/100 is the rate of increase)

cross multiply, and you get 130%.

Claire correctly solved the proportion StartFraction x over 4 EndFraction = StartFraction 36 over 16 EndFraction for x by using cross products to get the equation 16 x = 144 and then dividing both sides by 16 to get x = 9. She showed that she can use cross products to solve the proportion because she gets the same answer if the solves it as shown.

StartFraction x over 4 EndFraction = StartFraction 36 over 16 EndFraction. StartFraction x over 4 EndFraction times 4 = StartFraction 36 over 16 EndFraction times 4. x = StartFraction 144 over 16 EndFraction. X = 9.

What property allowed her to go from StartFraction x over 4 EndFraction = StartFraction 36 over 16 EndFraction to StartFraction x over 4 EndFraction times 4 = StartFraction 36 over 16 EndFraction times 4?

Answers

Answer:

a. 3x = 2x + 10, b. x = 10, c. 30 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle 4 and angle 6 = 180 degrees, so

3x = 2x + 10

x = 10

Angle 7 is congruent to angle 6, so it is also 2x + 10, x = 10, so it is 30 degrees.

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ 4 and ∠ 6 are same- side interior angles and sum to 180° , that is

(a)

3x + 2x + 20 = 180 , simplifying

(b)

5x + 20 = 180 ( subtract 20 from both sides )

5x = 160 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 32

(c)

∠ 6 and ∠ 7 are vertically opposite angles and are congruent , then

∠ 7 = 2x + 20 = 2(32) + 20 = 64 + 20 = 84°

a calculus problem that i have no idea what to do please help

Answer:

-[tex]\sqrt{5}[/tex]/8

Step-by-step explanation:

so you are looking to find the second derivative of this function, given the derivative. that means that all you have to do is take the derivative of that function and then plug in 16 for h.

rewrite the function to be -(5h)^1/2

then take its derivative using power rule and chain rule

-(1/2)*(5)*(5h)^(-1/2)  **the five comes from the chain rule and taking the derivative of the 5h

then plug in 16 for h to find -[tex]\sqrt{5}[/tex]/8 or about -0.2795

6x + 10 - 2x = 7 + 23
A. X = 15
B. X= 4
C. X= 5
D. X= 2

Answers

Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

First you combine the like terms. next you add 7+23. After that you subtract 10 from both sides. You're left with 4x=20. divide the equation by 4 on each term. Then you're left with x=5.

The Answer is C.
Start by isolating the constant from the variable values
6x-2x=7+23-10
4x=20
Then divide by 4
X=5

In his pocket, Hamid has $2.95 in dimes and quarters. If there are 16 coins in total, which system represents the number of dimes and quarters that Hamid has?

A. x + y = 16. 0.10 x + 0.25 y = 2.95.

B. x + y = 16. 0.05 x + 0.25 y = 2.95.

C. x + y = 2.95. 0.10 x + 0.25 y = 16.

D. x + y = 16. 0.01 x + 0.25 y = 2.95.

Answers

It’s C :)) (16-y)+0.25y = 2.95 => y=9… x+9=16
x=7

Answer:

A. x + y = 16; 0.10x + 0.25y = 2.95

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Dime is $0.10, number of dimes is x, total of dimes = 0.10xQuarter is $0.25, number of quarters is y, total of quarters is 0.25y

Number of coins is 16:

x + y = 16

Total amount is $2.95:

0.10x + 0.25y = 2.95

The answer is 16.

Since the rectangles are similar, the ratio of their height and width will be the same

The width of rectangle B is 10, which is 2 x the width of rectangle A
