What is 90 decreased by 40%?

1 answer:

8 0

Because it's decreasing, you use the formula (1-x/100)y with x the percentage decreased which is here 40, and y the number decreased which is here 90
So we get
(1-40/100) * 90
(100/100 - 40/100) * 90
60/100 * 90
5400/100
54
So 90 decreased by 40% is 54
Hope this Helps :)

A quantity with an initial value of 9100 grows continuously at a rate of 0.85% per hour. What is the value of the quantity after

ycow [4]

Answer:

$10,962,54$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The equation of a exponential growth is equal to

$y=a(1+r)^x$

where

a is the initial value

r is the rate of growth

x is the time in hours

y is the value of the quantity

we have

$a=9,100\\r=0.85\%=0.85/100=0.0085$

substitute

$y=9,100(1+0.0085)^x$

$y=9,100(1..0085)^x$

For x=22 hours

substitute

$y=9,100(1..0085)^{22} =10,962,54$

Find the zeros of g(x)=2x^2+32

expeople1 [14]

Answer:

x = 4i, − 4i

Step-by-step explanation:

The roots (zeros) are the x values where the graph intersects the x-axis. To find the roots (zeros), replace y with 0 and solve for x

x = 4i, − 4i

Find the quadratic function that fits the following data. which one function fits.

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The general rule for the quadratic function is

$y=ax^2+bx+c$

Use the data from the table:

$y(50)=130\Rightarrow 130=a\cdot 50^2+b\cdot 50+c\\ \\y(70)=130\Rightarrow 130=a\cdot 70^2+b\cdot 70+c\\ \\y(90)=200\Rightarrow 200=a\cdot 90^2+b\cdot 90+c$

We get the system of three equations:

$\left\{\begin{array}{l}2500a+50b+c=130\\ \\4900a+70b+c=130\\ \\8100a+90b+c=200\end{array}\right.$

Subtract these equations:

$\left\{\begin{array}{l}4900a+70b+c-2500a-50b-c=130-130\\ \\8100a+90b+c-2500a-50b-c=200-130\end{array}\right.\Rightarrow \left\{\begin{array}{l}2400a+20b=0\\ \\5600a+40b=70\end{array}\right.$
