The answer is 114.5%.

Let the original population be denoted by x.

Now, let's go through the percentage increase per year.

<u>Year 1</u>

  • x (1 + 20%)
  • x (1.2)
  • 1.2x

<u>Year 2</u>

  • 1.2x (1 + 25%)
  • 1.2x (1.25)
  • 1.5x

<u>Year 3</u>

  • 1.5x (1 + 30%)
  • 1.5x (1.3)
  • 1.95x

<u>Year 4</u>

  • 1.95x (1 + 10%)
  • 1.95x (1.1)
  • 2.145x

Overall increase : 214.5% - 100% = 114.5%

Hence, the overall percentage increase in these 4 years is 114.5%.

So g(x) doesn't come in
ok

remember pemdas
inside first
evaluate f(4)
f(4)=4^2+1=16+1=17
now we have

[17]^2=289

Ellie drew ΔLMN, in which m∠LMN = 90°. She then drew ΔPQR, which was a dilation of ΔLMN by a scale factor of one half from the c
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

m∠P ≅ m∠L; this can be confirmed by translating point P to point L.

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle angle (AA) similarity postulate state that two triangles are similar if two of their corresponding angle is similar. The corresponding angle for each point of the triangles will be:

∠L=∠P

∠Q=∠M

∠N=∠R

Since the 2nd triangle made from dilation, it should maintain its orientation.

Option 1 is true, ∠P corresponds to ∠L. If you move/translate point P to point L, you can confirm it because their orientation is the same.

Option 2 is false, the triangle will be similar if ∠P=∠N but you can't confirm it with translation alone.

Option 3 and 4 definitely wrong because it speaking about length, not the angle.

Algebra 2...can someone tell me how to do this???
crimeas [40]

Use the 2 dots on the line located at (0,1) and (-3,0).


The slope is the change in Y over the change in X:


Change in Y = 0-1 = -1

Change in X = -3 - 0 = -3

Slope = -1 / -3 = 1/3

They intercept in this case is Y1 which = 1.


The equation is y = 1/3x + 1
