Well we know that $250 is 100% so lets jot that down. We now need to find out what 1% of that is. so dividing 250 by 100 would give you...two dollars and fifty cense, or 2.5.


add 2.5 with another 2.5 to get 5 buck. 5 bucks is 2% of your $250 savings and so if we do the math by adding, $255 would be a 2% increase

255 - 250 = 5

5 / 250 = 0.02 = 2% increase

Answer:

No, it is not a square

Step-by-step explanation:

If one wall is 19", that would mean the wall perpendicular to this wall is also 19" (in fact all of the walls would be 19"!) If this was a square, then the diagonal we draw at 20.62" would serve as the hypotenuse of a right triangle.  One wall would serve as a leg, and another wall as another leg.  If this is a square, then the Pythagorean's Theorem would be satisfied when we plug in the 2 wall measures for a and b, and the diagonal for c:

19^2+19^2=20.62^2

We need to see if this is a true statement.  If the left side equals the right side, then the 2 legs of the right triangle are the same length, and the room, then is a square.

361 + 361 = 425.1844

Is this true?  Does 722 = 425.1844?  Definitely not.  That means that the room is not a square.

You are graphing y < 2x + 1. What type of line do you use and where do you shade?
bazaltina [42]
Since there isn't a line under the < sign, this means that we used a dotted or dashed line. The dotted or dashed line indicates that we do NOT include the boundary as part of the solution set. 

Since y is isolated and we have a less than sign, this means we shade below the dashed/dotted boundary line. Specifically, the boundary line is the graph of y = 2x+1. This boundary line goes through (0,1) and (1,3). Again, points on this boundary line are NOT part of the solution set. 

So in summary we have:
A dashed or dotted boundary line
The shaded region is below the dashed/dotted boundary line.

Use the elimination to solve this equation. <br><br> 2x+3y=55 <br> 9x+4y=105
seropon [69]
X=5 y=15 (5,15). 
This is how you do it:
-4(2x+3y=55): -8x-12y=-220
3(9x+4y=105):27x+12y=315

You add the two new equations together, canceling out the y values, and get the x value. Then, you go back and plug in the x value in the original equation to get the y value.

Simplify (2n + 5) - (3n + 7) + (4n - 9).<br> -3n - 11<br> 3n - 11<br> -3n + 11<br> 3n + 11
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

(B) 3n - 11

Step-by-step explanation:

(2n + 5) - (3n + 7) + (4n - 9) = 2n + 5 - 3n - 7 +4n - 9 = 3n  - 11
