If you decrease something by 4 percent,
you are keeping (100% - 4%) or 96% of the original
so multiply by the original amount by 96 percent or .96
If you have 100 pennies, and you give 4 away ( 4 percent decrease), you still have 96 pennies. You are keeping 96 percent of what you started with. This works no matter how much you start with.
Example:
you have 40 dollars
4% decrease
40 * .04 = 1.6 take this away
40 - 1.6 = 38.4 left
you keep 96 percent
40 * .96 = 38.4 left
Answer:
9x - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
A square has 4 sides.
We can factor out 4 from the expression to find the value of one side.
Factor:
- 36x - 12
- 4(9x) - 4(3)
- 4(9x - 3)
This means that each side of the square is 9x - 3 units long.
Answer:
a is 2.5
b is 1
gradient is rise over run
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
B) the stone hits the water within the first 2 seconds. Because the stone drops at the speed of 88 feet/second, and 88 x 2 is 176. but the bridge is only 135 feet tall.
so,
88 feet/second
176 feet/2 seconds
135 feet means that it reached the river within 2 seconds. it reached the river in 1.545 seconds
Answer:
graph g(x)=1/4 x^2 - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
You are to replace x with (1/2x) in the expression x^2-2
So you have (1/2x)^2-2
1/4 x^2-2
Graph some points for g(x)=1/4 x^2-2
The vertex is (0,-2) and the parabola is open up.
I would graph 2 more points besides the vertex
x | g(x) ordered pairs to graph
----------- (-1,-1.75) and (0,-2) and (1,-1.75)
-1 -1.75
0 -2
1 -1.75
