8.54 / 8.75 =0.975

1 - 0.975 = 0.025

Answer:

2.4%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the formula for percentage change (Mathisfun)

\displaystyle \rm \text{Percentage Change} = \frac{\text{New Value} - \text{Old Value}}{\text{Old Value}}\times 100\%.

Note that the old value shall be the one on the denominator.

For this question:

\displaystyle \rm \begin{aligned}\text{Percentage Change} &= \frac{\text{New Value} - \text{Old Value}}{\text{Old Value}}\times 100\%\\ &= \frac{8.75 - 8.54}{8.75}\times 100\%\\&= -2.4\%\end{aligned}.

The value here is negative, but don't be alerted. A positive value of change indicates an increase, while a negative value of change indicates a decrease. In other words, the stock price dropped by 2.4%.

Determine whether or not the relation is a function. Please help asap
OLga [1]

Answer:

A function can have many x values for a given y value and still be a function but it cannot have many y values for a given x value. You can easily test this by graphing the equation and doing the vertical line test by seeing if a vertical line will intersect the graph only once at all x values, if it passes it is a function. In short what you have here is a function

A square storage unit has a volume of 607.5 ft3. The height of the unit is 7.5 ft. What are the length and width of the storage
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

9ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The base area of the storage is its volume divided by height

A = \frac{V}{h} = \frac{607.5}{7.5} = 81 ft^2

Since this base is a square, its length and width is of equal length, which is

\sqrt{A} = \sqrt{81} = 9ft
