Use proportions.
214/236=x/100(100 because it's a percentage.
cross multiply:
23600=214x
solve for x:
x= 11.3(rounded)
11.3% increase

Solve the equation identify extraneous solutions
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The goal to solving any equation is to have x = {something}.  That means we need to get the x out from underneath that radical.  It's a square root, so we can "undo" it by squaring.  Square both sides because this is an equation.  Squaring both sides gives you

x^2=-3x+40

Get everything on one side of the equals sign and set the quadratic equal to 0:

x^2+3x-40=0

Throw this into the quadratic formula to get that the solutions are x = 5 and -8.  We need to see if only one works, both work, or neither work in the original equation.

Does 5=\sqrt{-3(5)+40}?

5=\sqrt{-15+40} and

5=\sqrt{25}

and 5 = 5.  So 5 works.  Let's try -8 now:

-8=\sqrt{-3(-8)+40} and

-8=\sqrt{24+40} so

-8=\sqrt{64}

-8 = 8?  No it doesn't.  So only 5 works. Your choice is the third one down.

Nancy and Kevin collect coins. Nancy has x coins. Kevin has 9 coins fewer than five times the number of coins Nancy has. Write a
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

x + (5x-9)

Step-by-step explanation:

x stands for the number of coins Nancy has

Kevin has 9 less than 5 times what Nancy has, so his part of the expression is 5x-9

To find the total number of coins they have, you have to add Nancy's number of coins x plus Kevin's number of coins 5x-9

x + (5x-9)

But you have to put parentheses around Kevin's 5x-9 so that part of the expression is calculated first, as per order of operations

Find the radius and the diameter to the nearest hundredth when C = 7π yd. Use 3.14 for π.
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

Diameter = 7

Radius = 3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi! Ace here.

So, the formula to find circumference is dπ or 2rπ

So to find the diameter, you do the circumference/π

To find the radius, you'd do the circumference/2π

Plug-in those numbers and there you go!

Hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions.

I know this was a very vague explanation so I encourage you to ask any questions. Thank you!

What does y equal y-16-3y=0
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

y = - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

y - 16 - 3y = 0

Group like terms

y - 3y - 16 = 0

Add similar elements: y - 3y = - 2y

- 2y - 16 = 0

Add 16 to both sides

- 2y - 16 + 16 = 0 + 16

Simplify

- 2y = 16

Divide both sides by - 2

\frac{-2y}{-2} = \frac{16}{-2}

Simplify \frac{-2y}{-2}: y

\frac{-2y}{-2}

Apply the fraction rule: \frac{-a}{-b}  = \frac{a}{b}

= \frac{2y}{2}

Divide the numbers: \frac{2}{2}  = 1

= y

Simplify \frac{16}{-2}: - 8

\frac{16}{-2}

Apply the fraction rule: \frac{-a}{-b}  = \frac{a}{b}

-\frac{16}{2}

Divide the numbers: \frac{16}{2} = 8

= - 8

y = - 8
