Answer:

26.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Increasing  Percentages</u>

When sequential percentages increasing are computed, each increase applies to the previous result, instead of the first quantity. That is why sometimes the final results may be confusing. For example, increasing 10% and then 15% will not be the same as increasing a total of 25%.

The average test scores of RSM students first increased by 10%. It means that some quantity C increased by

10C/100=0.1C

Now the average test scores are

C+0.1C=1.1C

A new increasing occurred by 15%, and the previous quantity must be multiplied by 1.15, so the final average test scores are

1.15(1.1C)=1.265C

It means that the total increasing was 100(1.265-1)=26.5\%

bonufazy [111]

Answer:

x=-2              x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

16x2 + 10x – 27 = -6x + 5

Add 6x to each side

16x^2+6x + 10x – 27 = -6x+6x + 5

16x^2 +16x -27 = 5

Subtract 5 from each side

16x^2 + 16x – 27-5 = 5 - 5

16x^2 +16x -32 = 0

Factor out 16

16 (x^2 +x-2)=0

Factor

16 (x+2) (x-1) =0

Using the zero product property

  (x+2) =0     x-1=0

x=-2              x=1
