The percentage increase in the area of a rectangle is 44% if each of its sides is increased by 20%.

<h3>What is a rectangle?</h3>

It is defined as two-dimensional geometry in which the angle between the adjacent sides is 90 degrees. It is a type of quadrilateral.

It is defined as the area occupied by the rectangle in two-dimensional planner geometry.

The area of a rectangle can be calculated using the following formula:

Rectangle area = length x width

New length = (120x/100) m

New breadth = (120y/100) m

New area = (6x/5 × 6y/5) m²

The difference between the original area = xy

new area 36xy/25

Percentage increase = (11xy/25 1/xy x 100)

= 44%

Thus, the percentage increase in the area of a rectangle is 44% if each of its sides is increased by 20%.

George is helping the manager of the local produce market expand her business by distributing flyers

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

20 + 0.05x ≥ 65

Step-by-step explanation:

20 is by itself since thats what he earns extra per day.

Since he earns 0.05 per flyer, that means we are going to need a variable since we don't know how many flyers he passes. Let x be equal to that.

Since he wants to make at LEAST 65 we are going to use the greater than or equal to symbol since he doesn't want to make less than that.

20 + 0.05x ≥ 65

Best of Luck!

First of all, we can observe that

$x^2-6x+9 = (x-3)^2$

So the expression becomes

$\dfrac{x^2-4}{\sqrt{(x-3)^2}} = \dfrac{x^2-4}{|x-3|}$

This means that the expression is defined for every $x\neq 3$

Now, since the denominator is always positive (when it exists), the fraction can only be positive if the denominator is also positive: we must ask

$x^2-4 \geq 0 \iff x\leq -2 \lor x\geq 2$

Since we can't accept 3 as an answer, the actual solution set is

$(-\infty,-2] \cup [2,3) \cup (3,\infty)$

2, 6, 18, 54. 162,...

grigory [225]

Answer:

$\text{c. }f(n)=3f(n-1);f(1)=2$

Step-by-step explanation:

The first term is 2, so part of the recursive definition is ...

f(1) = 2

The common ratio is 6/2 = 3, so each term is 3 times the previous one. That part of the recursive definition is ...

f(n) = 3·f(n -1)

These two parts of the definition match choice C.
