1.)
Old Number:35
New Number:45
Now, subract the new number(45) from the old number. (35)
45-35 is 10. Now divide the old number (35) by 10.
You'll get 3.5. 3.5%, increase is the answer for #1.
2.) Old: s (students)
New: 36,750
Do 100+5 (Addition because we do not know what the old number is.) 100+5 is 105. Move decimal over twice and you get 1.05. Multiply 36,750 by 1.05.
There were 38,587.5 kids last year.
3.)Since the discount is 15% off, do 100-15=85. Now, move the decimal over from the percent, and that makes that .85. Now multiply 50x.85. You get 42.5, or $42.50. Now the coupon is 10%, So subtract 100-10, giving you 90. Now move the decimal over. .90. Multiply 42.5 (or 42.50) by .90. You get 38.25. You do have enough money.
4.) Subtract 100-15, giving you 85. Move decimal over from percent. .85.
Now you would multiply .85 times k. B should be the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
sailboat A was going 8 ft per second, 40/5=8
sailboat B was going 7 ft per second, 56/8=7
Divide the amount spent on utilities (285 dollars) over the total expenses (2376 dollars) to get...
285/2376 = 0.1199
which is approximate
Move the decimal over 2 spots to the right to go from 0.1199 to 11.99% which is the final answer (this is approximate as well)
Note: Moving the decimal over 2 spots to the right is the same as multiplying by 100. So that means 0.1199*100% = 11.99%
