First, let's write this as an equation.

f(x)= price of an item

p= percent increase

f(x)=xp^2

1.44x=xp^2

1.44=p^2

\sqrt{ 1.44}= \sqrt{p^2

p=1.2

1.2=120%

Answer: The second price was a 120% of the first price which means that the second increase was 20% more than the first price.

Hope this helps!

Emanuel added two integers.

A. When you add to negative numbers, it is always negative. A positive + a positive is positive. In D, the answer is always 0. 1 + -1 is 0. In C, it varies. The bigger number not including the negative sign is the sign the number has. For example, -6 + 5 = -1. 6 is bigger than 5. You subtract the smaller number from the bigger number and that is the answer. You would then tack on the negative sign because it is -6, and 6 is bigger than 5.

Solve for the angle x.
sergejj [24]

Answer:

x=45

Step-by-step explanation:

An entire triangle is 180 degrees and you already know that one angle is 90 degrees. 180 - 90 is 90. Now you have the equation 2x=90.

You then divide each side by 2 to get the x by itself which leaves you with x=45.
