Answer:
the answer is d.
Step-by-step explanation:
first, you want to use the formula,
new value - original value
<u>____________________</u>
original value * 100
you see that 84 is the new value and 79 would be the original value. substitute the numbers in. this is a increase since you will get a positive value.
84 - 79
<u>______</u>
79 * 100
now we solve it.
5
<u>__</u>
79 * 100
you can either solve the fraction first then multiply that by 100 or multiply the numerator by 100 first then divide that by 79, each way works.
500
<u>____</u>
79 = approximately 6.3% increase (this is not a exact value, just rounded)
or
5
<u>__</u>
79 = approximately 0.063 (this is not a exact value, just rounded)
0.063 * 100 = 6.3% increase
Equation~ 5b + (2b - 4) + (3b -6)= 180.
so, we have two 54x18 rectangles, so their perimeter is simply all those units added together, 54+54+54+54+18+18+18+18 = 288.
we know the circle's diameter is 1.5 times the width, well, the width is 18, so the diameter of the circle must be 1.5*18 = 27.

Selection D is the equivalent form of the given expression.
_____
The nominal annual interest rate in this problem is 40%. If it were compounded half-yearly, the formula would be x(1.2)^(2t) or x(1.44)^t. Apparently, this problem is more concerned with the equivalent form of the expression than it is with half-yearly compounding.
