Answer:
16%
Step-by-step explanation:
The additional wage amount is $80.
The original wage amount is $500.
The ratio of the two is ...
$80/$500 = 0.16 = 16/100
To express that ratio as a percentage, multiply it by 100%.
0.16 × 100% = 16%
_____
It might help you to think of the percent sign (%) as a fancy way to write "per hundred" (/100). Of course, using your knowledge of place value, you know that 0.16 = sixteen hundredths = 16/100.
Realizing the meaning of the % sign, you can immediately write this as 16%.
Answer:
n = -5, 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
n^2 + 2n - 15 = 0
Let's check if we can factor this quadratic:
We need 2 numbers whose product is -15 and whose sum is +2.
There are 2 such numbers and they are +5 and -3, so the factors are:
(n + 5)(n - 3) = 0.
n + 5 = 0 or n - 3 = 0
therefore the zeroes are -5 and 3.
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
Lines have angles that are equal to 180. Therefore, because we already have 140 of the 180 necessary, we can subtract 140 from 180 to get 40. 40 divided by 5 is 8.
Hope that this helps!
Because It Can Be Simplified Many Ways
The value of track is given by:
V(x)=32500(0.92)^x
when x=2
V(2)=32500(0.92)^2=$27508
when x=3
V(3)=32500(0.92)^3=$25,307.36
Difference in values will be:
27508-25307.36
=$2,200.64
