Answer:

The percent increase in production from last year to this year is 13.93%.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, work out the difference (increase) between the two numbers you are comparing.

Increase = This Year Number - Last Year Number

Increase=139,000-122,000

Increase=17,000

Then, divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100.

% increase = Increase/Last Year Number × 100.

% Increase=17,000/122,000 X100

% Increase=0.1394 X 100

% Increase = 13.93%

Note: If your answer is a negative number then this is a percentage decrease.

Solution:

we are given that

The U.S.-based motorcycle manufacturer says that it expects to build 139,000 motorcycles this year, up from 122,000 last year.

It mean the increased production is 139,000-122,000=17000

The percentage change in production can be found using the formula as below

$Percenatge \ increase=\frac{change}{Initial}*100\\
\\
\text{Substitute the values we get}\\
\\
Percenatge \ increase=\frac{17000}{122,000}*100\\
\\
\
Percenatge \ increase=13.93\\$

Hence the percentage increase is 13.93.

Use the equation and type the ordered-pairs. y = log 3 x {(1/3, a0), (1, a1), (3, a2), (9, a3), (27, a4), (81, a5)

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

Considering the given equation $y = log_{3}x\\$

And the ordered pairs in the format $(x, y)$

I don't know if it is log of base 3 or 10, but I will assume it is 3.

For $(\frac{1}{3}, a_{0} )$

$x=\frac{1}{3}$

$y=a_{0}$

$y = log_{3}x\\y = log_{3}(\frac{1}{3} )\\y=-\log _3\left(3\right)\\y=-1$

So the ordered pair will be $(\frac{1}{3}, -1 )$

For $(1, a_{1} )$

$x=1$

$y=a_{1}$

$y = log_{3}x\\y = log_{3}1\\y = log_{3}(1)\\Note: \log _a(1)=0\\y = 0$

So the ordered pair will be $(1, 0 )$

For $(3, a_{2} )$

$x=3$

$y=a_{2}$

$y = log_{3}x\\y = log_{3}3\\y = 1$

So the ordered pair will be $(3, 1 )$

For $(9, a_{3} )$

$x=9$

$y=a_{3}$

$y = log_{3}x\\y = log_{3}9\\y=2\log _3\left(3\right)\\y=2$

So the ordered pair will be $(9, 2 )$

For $(27, a_{4} )$

$x=27$

$y=a_{4}$

$y = log_{3}x\\y = log_{3}27\\y=3\log _3\left(3\right)\\y=3$

So the ordered pair will be $(27, 3 )$

For $(81, a_{5} )$

$x=81$

$y=a_{5}$

$y = log_{3}x\\y = log_{3}81\\y=4\log _3\left(3\right)\\y=4$

So the ordered pair will be $(81, 4 )$

Answer:

6000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hundreds digit is 6 so we round up the thousand digit (5) to get 6000.

The first and third quartiles

aalyn [17]

1. You'll need to download this data, or copy it down by hand.
2. Rearrange the data from lowest to highest values.
3. You have 24 data points (an even number).
In this case, to find the 1st quadrant, take the left half (that is, the left 12) data points. Since 12 is an even number, you must find the average of the middle two of these 12 data points. Your result is the 1st quadrant.
To find the 3rd quadrant, find the middle two data points of the right-hand 12 data points. Average these two points. The result is the 3rd quadrant.

Electromagnets are devices that create a magnetic field through the application of electricity. Strong electromagnets are used to lift, move and drop heavy objects, such as vehicles. Electromagnets have advantages over permanent magnets. When the current is switched off, the electromagnet will lose its magnetism. The car will fall back to earth and we need that when we move cars in a junkyard. With a regular ( permanent ) magnet it would be much harder to do.
