Answer:

9.16

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that

Total expense = price of sugar * consumption

let price of sugar was 100

So total expense = 100*10=1000

But now new expense =1100 (I,e.10% more than 1000)

and new price =120(i,e. 20% more than 100)

So new consumption = new expense/ new price=

1100/120

=110/12

=9.16

Answer:

16 2/3 %   or approx. 16.67%

Step-by-step explanation:

Original price = 100%

New price = 100+20% = 120%

To reduce back to 100%

we need to reduce 20% from 120 % = 20/120 = 1/6 = 16 2/3 % = 16.7% approx.

Determined to find the slope<br>(1 7K), and (-3,5K)​
Helga [31]

Answer: \dfrac{K}{2} .

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know ,

The slope of a line that passes through (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2)  is given by :

\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

The slope of a line that passes through (1 , 7K), and (-3,5K)​ =

\dfrac{5K-7K}{-3-1}\\\\=\dfrac{-2K}{-4}\\\\=\dfrac{K}{2}

Hence, the slope of the given line is \dfrac{K}{2} .

Graph f(x)=3x-1 and g(x)=2^x on the same coordinate plane.
julsineya [31]

Answer:

B. 1 and D. 3.  

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure below shows the graphs of f(x) = 3x - 1 (red) and g(x) = 2^x (blue).

The solutions of 3x - 1 = 2^x are the points at which the two curves intersect.

The solutions are at x = 1 and x = 3.

Check:

3 × 1 - 1 = 2¹     3 × 3 -1 = 2³

    3 - 1 = 2           9 - 1 = 8

        2 = 2                8 = 8
