Answer:

46%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Alison bought 12 shares in The Toy Company when it cost $27.

She is planning on selling her shares and they currently cost $39.50.

To Find: . What is the percent increase in sale price?

Solution :

Previous cost = $27

Current cost = $39.50

Increase in price = $39.50-$27=$12.5

Percent increase in sale price=\frac{\text{increase in price} }{\text{original price}} *100

=\frac{\text{12.5} }{\text{27}} *100

=0.4629 *100

=46.29

Thus Percent increase in sale price = 46%

Hence option C is correct

Cost price
12×27=324
Sales price
12×39.50=474
Percent increase
((474−324)÷324)×100=46%

What is the value of x (distance from the edge of the screen to the end of the wall) if the area of the screen is 40 m^2?
erica [24]

The value of x that is the length from the edge of the screen to the end of the wall is equal 3. This is derived from an equation which serves as a function of the Area. See the solution below.

<h3>

What is the calculation for the solution above?
</h3>

Recall that the area of the entire wall is 40m².

(10-2x) (16- 2x) = 40

Expanding the brackets, we have

160-20x-32x + 4x² = 40
4x² - 52x + 120 = 0
x² - 13x +30 = 0

Using the quadratic equation

x = (-b±√b²-4ac)/2a

Where a = 1
b  = 13
c = 30

x = (13 ± 7)/2

Thus x = 10; or x = 3.

x cannot be the answer because it invalidates 16-x<0;

Hence, the correct answer is x = 3

Ow is the product of 3 and –2 shown using integer tiles?
PIT_PIT [208]

The correct answer is option C which is 3 sets of 2 negative tiles.

<h3>What is multiplication?</h3>

Multiplication is the process of determining the product of two or more numbers in mathematics.

We have the product of 3 and -2. We can represent this as 3 is equivalent to -2 negative tiles.

When we add -2 three times -2 - 2 -2 = -6 we will get -6 that is 3 sets of 2 negative tiles.

So when we multiply it by 3, we end with 3 sets of 2 negative tiles. This is because the order of the factors does not change the product.

Therefore the correct answer is option C which is 3 sets of 2 negative tiles.

Whats is a 3 step problem that can represent the expression 3x + (-5) = 19
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-5=19\\

The first step is to add -5 to both sides:

(3x-5)+5=19+5\\3x=24

The next step is to divide 3 on both sides:

\frac{3x}{3} =\frac{24}{3}

x=8
