<span>If a quantity increases by 25% and then decreases by 25%, will that result be the original quantity? Explain.
Let’s try to be able to know the answer:
=> Let’s have 10 as the value
Increase by 25%
=> 10 + 25%
=> 10 * .25 =  2.5
=> 10 + 2.5 = 12.5 the new value
Now, decrease this by 25%
=> 12.5 – 25%
=> 12.5 * .25 = 3.125
=> 12.5 – 3.125 = 9.375 or 9.4
Thus, the given statement is false.

If the roulette wheel is a fair wheel, the odds on any given spin of the wheel is unaffected by any previous spins of the wheel. So no matter how many times the wheel has consecutively come up red, the next spin can still come up red, black, or green based upon the number of each color is present on the wheel. The difference between the odds for Europe vs America has to do with a quirk about roulette. In Europe, the roulette wheel has 37 slots, 18 red, 18 black, and 1 green. In America, the roulette wheel has 38 slots, 18 red, 18 black, and 2 green. Although in this case, I'd be wary about assuming that the wheel isn't rigged. The odds of 270 consecutive red on a fair wheel is only 1 in 3.09663x10^84 in Europe, or 1 in 4.14949x10^87 in America.</span>

Question 2 (1 point)
nikdorinn [45]

Answer: 24 hours - no; because depending on where you are on Earth, you have a  different amount of sunlight.

Step-by-step explanation:

The day-night cycle is a complete day or a complete rotation of the earth around its axis. This takes 24 hours which is why 24 hours is the length of a full day.

People around the world however, do not get the same amount of sunlight or darkness and this is because of where they are on Earth. Due to the way the planet is tilted on its axis, some areas see sunlight more than other in a period and others see more darkness.

Help <br> 7. Given the figure, find the desired measurements
EastWind [94]

Answer:

  m∠F = 66°

  m∠D = 57°

Step-by-step explanation:

It looks like you have ...

  ∠D = ∠E = (4x +1)°

  ∠F = (5x -4)°

The sum of the angles in the triangle is 180°, so we have ...

  2(4x +1) +(5x -4) = 180

  13x -2 = 180

  x = 182/13 = 14

Then the angle measures are ...

  ∠D = ∠E = (4(14) +1)° = 57°

  ∠F = (5(14) -4)° = 66°

__

m∠F = 66°

m∠D = 57°
