Find the percent of increase or decrease from the first number to the second number. 140 to 84

Mathematics
1 answer:
tresset_1 [31]2 years ago
8 0
We can automatically see that we are dealing with a percent decrease because we are going from a smaller to a bigger number. We need to first find what percent of 140the number 84 is. to do this we can set up the following equation:

140/84=100/x (this equation is basically saying if 140 is 100(%) what would 84 be?)

solving for x here gives us x = (84 X 100)/140 = 60, so 84 is 60 percent of 140 which means 140 decreased by 40 percent.

Let me know if I can clear anything else up.

Write a quadratic function whose zeros are -3 and -4
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

  f(x) = (x -(-3))(x -(-4))

Step-by-step explanation:

The function can be written as the product of binomial terms whose values are zero at the given zeros.

  (x -(-3)) is one such term

  (x -(-4)) is another such term

The product of these is the desired quadratic function. In the form easiest to write, it is ...

  f(x) = (x -(-3))(x -(-4))

This can be "simplified" to ...

  f(x) = (x +3)(x +4) . . . . simplifying the signs

  f(x) = x^2 +7x +12 . . . . multiplying it out

What is the measure of angle R?
Alika [10]

Answer:

m<R = 22.62°

Step-by-step explanation:

Reference angle = R

Opposite = 5 cm

Hypotenuse = 13 cm

Apply the trigonometric function SOH:

Sin R = Opp/Hyp

Sin (R) = \frac{5}{13}

R = sin^{-1}(\frac{5}{13})

R = 22.6198649°

m<R = 22.62° (nearest hundredth)
