It is 12.5%.

15 divided by 120 is 0.125, and in order to make it a percentage, multiply by 100% or move the decimal two places to the right.

Another way is to think about it and break it down. 60 is 50% of 120, and 15 is 25% of 60.
Since 15 is 25% of 60, which in turn in 50% of 120, 15 is 12.5%.

I'm 1,000% sure it's correct.

To do this, divide 15 by 120. You get 0.125 Then turn the decimal into a percent. You do this by moving the decimal point to places to the RIGHT. You get 12.5% as your answer.

The table below shows the number of shoppers at Jacob's store over a period of five months:

Olin [163]

We are given table

Month : 1 2 3 4 5

Shoppers: 50 250 1250 6250 3250

so, we have

first term =50

$a_1=50$

Second term =250

$a_2=250$

Third term =1250

$a_3=1250$

$a_4=6250$

$a_5=31250$

now, we can find ratios

$\frac{a_2}{a_1} =\frac{a_3}{a_2}=\frac{a_4}{a_3}=\frac{a_5}{a_4}=5$

we can see that all ratios are same and 5

so, this is exponential

so, option-D..........Answer

What is the distance from P to Q ?A. 7 unitsB. 5 unitsC. 1 unitD. 25 unitshow do I find the distance from P to Q?

Alex17521 [72]

to find the distance between 2 points we should apply the formula

$d=\sqrt[]{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-_{}y_1)^2_{}}$

call point q as point 1 for reference in the formula and p as point 2

replace the coordinates in the formula

$d=\sqrt[]{(3-(-1))^2+(-4-(-1))^2}$

simplify the equation

$\begin{gathered} d=\sqrt[]{(3+1)^2+(-4+1)^2} \\ d=\sqrt[]{4^2+(-3)^2} \\ d=\sqrt[]{16+9} \\ d=\sqrt[]{25} \\ d=5 \end{gathered}$

the distance between the 2 points is 5 units

Egal loggers got away with 4 acres of trees at a reserve in central Mexico. That number represents a 97 percent decline from two

geniusboy [140]

Answer: with 133.33 acres of trees

Step-by-step explanation:

4 acres of trees, is a 97% decrease of the previous amount.

This means that if the previous amount was X, then 4 acres is 3% (or 0.03 in decimal form) of X, or:

4 acres = 0.03*X

Now we can solve this for X as:

X = 4acres/0.03 = 133.33 acres

The illegal loggers got away with 133.33 acres of trees
