to find the percent of the tiles in HI! that are in the H, first find either a fraction or a decimal written hundredths, since p
ercent is a number out of 100. Then convert the hundredths to a percent your answer
1 answer:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
As we can see in the image below, the number of tiles that form the word HI!, is ; this represents the
or the total.
Now, if we count the number of tiles in H, this number will be . So, we have to find what percent this number represents by a Rule of Three:
If:
----
----
Then:
This is the percent of tiles in H.

Answer:
12%
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation for the growth is ...
f(t) = (initial value)×(growth multiplier per period)^(number of periods)
where the growth multiplier is often expressed as a percentage added to 1:
multiplier = 1+r
growth rate = r
__
This equation has two unknowns:
- initial value
- growth multiplier
In order to find these, you can make use of two of the supplied data points. I like to choose the ones that are farthest apart, as they tend to average out any errors due to rounding.
Clearly, the table tells you the initial value is 210. If you don't believe, you can put the numbers in the equation to see that:
f(0) = (initial value)×(growth multiplier)^0
210 = (initial value)×1
(initial value) = 210
__
Using the last data point, we get ...
f(7) = 210×(growth multiplier)^7
464 = 210×(growth multiplier)^7 . . . . . . . . . fill in table value
2.209524 = (growth multiplier)^7 . . . . . . . divide by 210
You can solve this a couple of ways. My calculator is able to take the 7th root, so I can use it to find ...
Alternatively, you can use the 1/7 power:
2.209524^(1/7) = (growth multiplier)
Another way to solve this is to use logarithms:
log(2.209524) = 7×log(growth multiplier) . . . . . take the log
log(2.209524)/7 = log(growth multiplier) . . . . . divide by 7
0.04918553 ≈ log(growth multiplier)
growth multiplier = 10^0.04918553 ≈ 1.11992 . . . . take the antilog
So, our growth multiplier is ...
1 + r ≈ 1.11992
r ≈ .11992 ≈ 12.0%
The rate of growth is about 12% in each period.
_____
Collapsing all of that to a single calculation:
growth rate = (464/210)^(1/(7-0)) -1 ≈ 12.0%
