To find the increase from 1997 to 1998, you could substitute in numbers and then determine the percent increase based on those numbers.

Ex: 500 to 1000 (96-97)
      1000 to 2000 (97-98)
Percent increase is (2000-1000)/1000 or 100% increase.

Testing another set of numbers will result in the same thing.

Ex: 200 to 400 (96-97)
      400 to 800 (97-98)
Percent increase is (800-400)400 or 100% increase.

The percent increase is 100%.

Answer:

The number of students increase from 1997 to 1998 by 100 %.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of students in the year 1996.

According to the question,

The number of students on 1997 = 2x

Also, the number of students on 1998 = 4x

Thus, the percentage increase in the number of students from 1997 to 1998

=\frac{\text{the number of students on 1998-the number of students on 1997}}{\text{the number of students on 1997}}\times 100

=\frac{4x-2x}{2x}\times 100

=\frac{2x}{2x}\times 100

=100\%

In triangle abc, the perimeter is 36, and ab=ac. line ad is perpendicular to bc at the point d, and triangle abd's perimeter is
Musya8 [376]
Let x=ab=ac, and y=bc, and z=ad.

Since the perimeter of the triangle abc is 36, you have:

Perimeter of abc = 36
ab + ac + bc = 36
x + x + y = 36
(eq. 1) 2x + y = 36

The triangle is isosceles (it has two sides with equal length: ab and ac). The line perpendicular to the third side (bc) from the opposite vertex (a), divides that third side into two equal halves: the point d is the middle point of bc. This is a property of isosceles triangles, which is easily shown by similarity.

Hence, we have that bd = dc = bc/2 = y/2 (remember we called bc = y).

The perimeter of the triangle abd is 30:

Permiter of abd = 30
ab + bd + ad = 30
x + y/2 + z =30
(eq. 2) 2x + y + 2z = 60

So, we have two equations on x, y and z:

(eq.1) 2x + y = 36
(eq.2) 2x + y + 2z = 60

Substitute 2x + y by 36 from (eq.1) in (eq.2):

(eq.2') 36 + 2z = 60

And solve for z:

36 + 2z = 60 => 2z = 60 - 36 => 2z = 24 => z = 12

The measure of ad is 12.

If you prefer a less algebraic reasoning:

- The perimeter of abd is half the perimeter of abc plus the length of ad (since you have "cut" the triangle abc in two halves to obtain the triangle abd).

- Then, ad is the difference between the perimeter of abd and half the perimeter of abc:

ad = 30 - (36/2) = 30 - 18 = 12
