Answer:
$13,795
Step-by-step explanation:
15500/x=100/11
(15500/x)*x=(100/11)*x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
15500=9.0909090909091*x - we divide both sides of the equation by (9.0909090909091) to get x
15500/9.0909090909091=x
1705=x
x=1705
now we have:
11% of 15500=1705
The correct answer should 4% because the ratio is 3 out of 75 which would leave 72 non-defective bulbs. So your answer is 4%
The exponential function is given in the form
where a is the initial value and b is the multiplicative rate of change
So lets plug the first two values of the table in this function , we get
or
Now plug second
Divide equation 2 by equation 1
On simplifying we get
or
So the multiplicative rate of change of the function is
3b+6
If you make both equations equal each other, you can then solve the system of equations.
1:15 pm + 5 minutes =1:20 PM You add 5 minutes because your watch is slow then subtract 3 minutes because you thought the watch was 3 minutes fast. real time is 1:17 PM
1:20 pm - 3 minutes = 1:17 PM
