I need a easy way to do percentage

1 answer:

It depends on what you are trying to calculate but the most common way I go to find percentage is to multiply by the number in decimal for ie. 50% = .5.

If you are looking for a way to do it quickly in your head I always take find out what 10% is like in the case of 100 it would be 10 so if I want to find 15% I know I can find 10% and if I cut what 10% is in half I will find 5% so likewise if I add what 10%+5% I will end up with 15%. For example, 10% of 100 is 10 half of 10 is 5 and 10+5 equals 15. If you need to find something like 20% or 30% I know that I can find 10% and instead of dividing(cutting it in half) I can multiply by 2 or 3. 10% + 10% =20%

I hope it helps, if you have more questions let me know!

Answer:

-2.5x-.5

$y=\frac{2}{3}x-1$

draw the dotted line (3/7)x-3 and shade below it

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need the slope

Use the slope formula:

$\frac{Y_2-Y_1}{X_2-x_1}=\frac{2-(-8)}{-1-3}=\frac{10}{-4}=-2.5$

so we have

y= -2.5x+b

Solve for b by plugging in coordiantes

-8= -2.5(3)+b

-8= -7.5+b

b= -.5

Put it together and get -2.5x-.5

2.)

A line is parallel to another line if they have the same slope (and different y intercepts)

So in the formula y=mx+b we knowe that m= 2/3

Now it's just a matter of solving for B

plug in the required coordinate to do this

-1=(2/3)*0+b

-1= b

Put it all together to get

$y=\frac{2}{3}x-1$

3.)

put this into slope intercept form

3x-7y>21

3x-21 > 7y

(3/7)x-3 >y

To graph this just draw a dotted line with the equation (3/7)x-3 and shade everything below it (use de_smos if you're stuck)

The area of sandbox in park is represented by 2X^2-5x-3 find the dimensions of the sandbox in terms of

lora16 [44]

Answer:

The dimension of the sandbox is (2x+1) by (x - 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

It seems the complete question will be:

The area of sandbox in park is represented by 2X^2-5x-3 find the dimensions of the sandbox in terms of x.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, the given expression is 2X^2-5x-3. This can be rewritten as

$2x^{2} -5x-3$

If the area of the sandbox in park is represented by this expression, then the dimensions of the sandbox will be the product of the factors. To determine the factors, we will factorize the given quadratic expression.

Factorizing the expression $2x^{2} -5x-3$ , we get

$2x^{2} -6x+x-3$
