Answer:

Her sales after 6 months are = 127units

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage increase:- The degree to which a value increases expressed in percent form is known as percentage increase.

formula for % increase = (final value - initial value)/initial value(100)

Here in the question,

percentage increase after every month is = 5%

initial value  =  95 units

therefore by applying above formula :-

[(x-95)/95]×100 = 5          [where x is the value of her sales goals after 1 month]

x = (5/100)×95+ 95

x = 99.75

Now this x will be the initial value for the next month

x₂ = (5/100)99.75+ 99.75             [ x₂ = sales goal after 2 months]

x₂ = (5/100)×99.75+ 99.75

x₂ = 104.73

similarly,

(x₃-104.73/104.73)100 = 5       [x₃ = sales after 3 months]

x₃ = 109.96

similarly for 4th month,

(x₄ -109.96/109.96)100 = 5       [x₄ = sales after 4 months]

x₄ = 115.45

for 5th month,

(x₅ -115.45/115.45)100 = 5       [x₅ = sales after 5 months]

x₅ = 121.22

finally for the 6th month

(x₆-121.22/121.22)100 = 5        [x₆ = sales after 6 months]

x₆ = 127.28

therefore,

her sales after 6 months are = 127.28 units or 127 units by rounding off

Rewrite the expression 7x^2 + 7x - 42 as THREE factors where one of the factors is an integer value.
kondaur [170]
<h3>Answer:  7(x+3)(x-2)</h3>

========================================

Explanation:

First factor out the GCF 7

7x^2 + 7x - 42

7*x^2 + 7*x + 7*(-6)

7(x^2 + x - 6)

Now focus on factoring x^2+x-6

We need to find two numbers that multiply to -6 and add to 1. Those values are 3 and -2. That means x^2+x-6 factors to (x+3)(x-2).

The 7(x^2 + x - 6) then turns into 7(x+3)(x-2)

The factor out front, the "7", is the integer factor. The other factors (x+3) and (x-2) are binomial factors.

Jin needs 0.8 gram of carbon for an experiment. She needs 4.15 times as much water. Jins says that she needs less than 4.15 gram
natima [27]

Answer:

That is a correct statement.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because to find the appropriate amount, we would multiply the two numbers together. Since we are multiplying 4.15 by a number less than 1 (0.8), the number can only be lower. The number would only be higher if the number was greater than 1.
