Let the original profits be $x. 5% increase in profits will give us:
105/100×x=$1.05x
3% reduction in new profits ill give us the latest amount to be:
97/100×1.05x
=$1.0185x
comparing our new profits to our original amount of $x we shall have new percentage increase to be:
(1.0185x-x)/x×100
=1.85% 
Thus our final increase  1.85%

Write an equation of a line in slope-intercept from with the given slope, slope:–3/4, y-intercept: –2
larisa [96]

Answer: y=-3/4x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Write an equation of a line in slope-intercept from with the given slope, slope:–3/4, y-intercept: –2

The y-intercept is at  (0,-2)

Then we write the equation using y=mx+b becuase that is the point slope form.

m=-3/4 which was given in the question

because y-intercept is at (0,-2)

y=-2  

x=0

-2=-3/4(0)+b

-2=0+b

-2=b

now we know that m is -3/4 and b is -2

Hence the equation is y=-3/4x-2

What is this please help I need this completed
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

angles 3 and 4 both equal a 90 degree angle or bisect a 90 degree angle.

angle 5 is 44-degrees because it is complementary or vertical to the 44 degree angle.

x=32 because it is on the same line as the 44-degree angle and a line is 180 so 180-44=136 and to get the rest of x you would do the equation backwards so 136 divided by 4 is 34 and 36-2=32

angle a is 136 described above.

angle b, because it is on the same line as the 46 degree angle is 180-46=134

now im pooped :(

“Find the values of x and y when the smaller triangle here has the given area! “
natita [175]
Answer:

I think it’s 48 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Area is length x width so 8 x 12 is 96 and since it is twice the slice of the smaller triangle, 96 divided by 2 is 48

How many integers between 10000 and 99999, inclusive, are divisible by 3 or<br> 5 or 7?
Yuki888 [10]

Answer: Hence, there are approximately 48884 integers are divisible by 3 or 5 or 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Integers between 10000 and 99999 = 99999-10000+1=90000

n( divisible by 3) = \dfrac{90000}{3}=30000

n( divisible by 5) = \dfrac{90000}{5}=18000

n( divisible by 7) = \dfrac{90000}{7}=12857.14

n( divisible by 3 and 5) = n(3∩5)=\dfrac{90000}{15}=6000

n( divisible by 5 and 7) = n(5∩7) = \dfrac{90000}{35}=2571.42

n( divisible by 3 and 7) = n(3∩7) = \dfrac{90000}{21}=4285.71

n( divisible by 3,5 and 7) = n(3∩5∩7) = \dfrac{90000}{105}=857.14

As we know the formula,

n(3∪5∪7)=n(3)+n(5)+n(7)-n(3∩5)-n(5∩7)-n(3∩7)+n(3∩5∩7)

=30000+18000+12857.14-6000-2571.42-4258.71+857.14\\\\=48884.15

Hence, there are approximately 48884 integers are divisible by 3 or 5 or 7.

I need help in learning how to solve this equation using substitution:
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

x=3, z=-1, y=6

Step-by-step explanation:

you need to make the coefficients of each variable equal to each other then subtract 2 equations.

this one: multiply -4 in 1st

4x+4y+4z=32

-4x+4y+5z=7

_____________

8x+0-z=25

we have 2 equations with 2 variables now

2x+2z=4

8x-z=25
