Why is the percent not the same as the percent you find from he percent of money

1 answer:

4 0

Percentage is a way to express a relation between two numbers as a fraction of 100. In other words, the percentage tells us how one number relates to another. If we know that number A is 25% of number B, we know that A to B is like 25 is to 100 (one more transformation: A is four times smaller than B). This is Percentage Calculator's lesson on what is percentage.
But in money a percent is how many cents past the dollar the number is.

On Monday, Takira counted 75 splatters of bird droppings on her car. On Tuesday afternoon, she counted 21 more. What is the perc

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

28%

Step-by-step explanation:

percent change in the number of bird droppings = increase in splatters / splatters counted on Monday x 100

$\frac{21}{75}$ x 100 = 28%

The students in Ms. Lorenzo’s class collected the following numbers of bottle caps:

gladu [14]

I am not sure how to show you how to do a dot plot on this website, but to see how to do a dot plot

b) Put everything in order and find the middle
10, 10, 10, 20, 30, 30, 30, 30, 40, 50, 50, 50, 60, 60, 70, 70, 2040
^^
So 40 is in the middle, making it the median

c) Add all of the values together and divide by the total number of values.
10 + 10 + 10 + 20 + 30 + 30 + 30 + 30 + 40 + 50 + 50 + 50 + 60 + 60 + 70 + 70 + 2040 = 2660
2660 / 17 = 156.5

Let f(x) = x^2+ 5x and g(x) = 5 - x. Find f(3) + g(3)

Alchen [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=x^2+5x g(x)=5‒x

f(3)=3^2+5(3) g(3)=5‒3

f(3)=9+15 g(3)=2

f(3)=24

f(3)+g(3)=24+2

=26

i think it is easy to understand &i hope it helps you

Give the following equations determine if the lines are parallel perpendicular or neither

GaryK [48]

In order to determine whether the equations are parallel, perpendicular, or neither, let's simply each equation into a slope-intercept form or basically, solve for y.

Let's start with the first equation.

$\frac{6x-5y}{2}=x+1$

Cross multiply both sides of the equation.

$6x-5y=2(x+1)$ $6x-5y=2x+2$

Subtract 6x on both sides of the equation.

$6x-5y-6x=2x+2-6x$ $-5y=-4x+2$

Divide both sides of the equation by -5.

$-\frac{5y}{-5}=\frac{-4x}{-5}+\frac{2}{-5}$ $y=\frac{4}{5}x-\frac{2}{5}$

Therefore, the slope of the first equation is 4/5.

Let's now simplify the second equation.

$-4y-x=4x+5$

Add x on both sides of the equation.

$-4y-x+x=4x+5+x$ $-4y=5x+5$

Divide both sides of the equation by -4.

$\frac{-4y}{-4}=\frac{5x}{-4}+\frac{5}{-4}$ $y=-\frac{5}{4}x-\frac{5}{4}$

Therefore, the slope of the second equation is -5/4.

Since the slope of each equation is the negative reciprocal of each other, then the graph of the two equations is perpendicular to each other.

What is the value of x in the equation 9/10 (x + 2/3)=4 1/2

garri49 [273]

Get the x variable on one side and the numbers another side.

9/10(x + 2/3) = 4 1/2

Distribute the 9/10 across the x and 2/3.

(9/10)x + 18/30 = 4 1/2

Simplify 18/30 to make our life easier.

(9/10)x + 3/5 = 4 1/2

Subtract 3/5 from each side of the equation.

(9/10)x = 3 9/10

Divide both sides by 9/10.

x = 4 1/3
