Answer:

22.11% < 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

In the last week, 1221 people went to the beach and this week 951 people went to the beach.

So, the reduction in the number of people went to the beach this week will be (1221 - 951) = 270.

Therefore, the percentage reduction in the number of people went to the beach this week will be \frac{270 \times 100}{1221} =22.11 %.

So, the percent reduction is less than 25%. (Answer)

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

  455 or 680, depending

Step-by-step explanation:

If we assume the three choices are different, then there are ...

  15C3 = 15·14·13/(3·2·1) = 35·13 = 455

ways to make the pizza.

___

If two or three of the topping choices can be the same, then there are an additional ...

  2(15C2) +15C1 = 2·105 +15 = 225

ways to make the pizza, for a total of ...

  455 + 225 = 680

different types of pizza.

__

There is a factor of 2 attached to the number of choices of 2 toppings, because you can have double anchovies and tomato, or double tomato and anchovies, for example, when your choice of two toppings is anchovies and tomato.

The area of the triangle formed by points of intersection of parabola y=a(x−3)(x+2) with the coordinate axes is 10. Find a if it
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer: a = 4

Step-by-step explanation: Area of a triangle is calculated as: A_{t}=\frac{b.h}{2}.

The triangle formed by the parabola has base (b) equal to the distance between the points where the graph touches x-axis and height (h) is the point where graph touches the y-axis.

The points on the x-axis are the roots of the quadratic equation:

a(x-3)(x+2)=0

(x-3)(x+2)=0

x - 3 = 0

x = 3

or

x + 2 = 0

x = -2

So, base is the distance between (-2,0) and (3,0).

Since they are in the same coordinate, distance will be:

b = 3 - (-2)

b = 5

Area of the triangle is 10. So constant a is

10=\frac{5.a}{2}

5a = 10.2

a = 4

The constant a of the function y = a(x-3)(x+2) is 4.
