Mary was making $25,000 per year. Her boss gave her a $3,000 raise. What percent increase is that? PLZ HELP

1 answer:

7 0

The easiest way to find a percentage is to divide the two numbers. You're trying to find what percent 3,000 is of 25,000, so you divide 3,000 by 25,000 to find the decimal.
3000/25,000 = 0.12
If you move the decimal point to the right two places, you'll have your percentage. (Percent means "out of one hundred", and since the decimal point is now in what was the hundredths place, it is now a percentage instead of a decimal.)
12%
$3,000 is a 12% raise from $25,000.

Determine the holes, vertical asymptotes, and horizontal asymptotes of the rational function y=3x^2+10x-8/x^2+7x+12

There would be a hole when x = -4.

If you factor both the top and the bottom, you will see that the factor (x + 4) is in both the numerator and denominator. Therefore, the would be a hole when x = -4 because that would also make the denominator 0.

Okay so, togo flies 30 miles in 3/5 of an hour with the wind.togo flies 30 miles in 5/6 of an hour against the wind. his rate of speed with the wind was 30 / (3/5) = 30*5/3 = 150/3 = 50 mph.his rate of speed against the wind was 30 / (5/6) = 30*6/5 = 6*6 = 36 mph.3/5 of an hour times 50 mph = 30 miles.
5/6 of an hour times 36 mph = 30 miles.mph looks good.
going he was with the wind.
his rate of speed then was the airplane speed plus the wind speed.coming back he was against the wind.his rate of speed then was the airplane speed minus the wind speed.-----50 mph = A + W36 mph = A - W-----looks like A + W - (A - W) should equal 50 - 36.removing parentheses, equation becomesA + W - A + W = 14.
combining like terms, the equation becomes2*W = 14.dividing both sides by 2, equation becomesW = 7.if W = 7, then A can be found as follows:50 = A + 7A = 43.likewise,36 = A - 7A = 43.since the airplane speed is the same, it looks like the answer is good.solving in the original equations, we get3/5 * (43 + 7) = 303/5 * 50- = 3030 = 30good.-----5/6 * (43 - 7) = 305/6 * 36 = 3030 = 30good.
answer is W = 7 and A = 43.
