100% = 1600
120% = 1920

1920/120 = 1536/y
1920y = <span>184320 (cross multiply)
y = 96%
decrease of 24% from 1920</span>

A band expects to put 15 songs on their next CD. The band writes and records ​60% more songs than they expect to put on the CD.
scoray [572]

Answer: 6

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that a band expects to put 15 songs on their next CD and that the band writes and records ​60% more songs than they expect to put on the CD. Therefore, the total songs will be:

= 15 + (60% × 15)

= 15 + (0.6 × 15)

= 15 + 9

= 24 songs.

During the editing​ process, ​75% of the songs are removed. The total number of songs that will be there on the final​ CD will be:

= 24 - (75% × 24)

= 24 - (0.75 × 24)

= 24 - 18

= 6

6 songs will be there on the final CD.

YALL I NEED HELP ASAP!!
Elodia [21]

Answer:

32

Step-by-step explanation:

You use angle chasing. Since a triangle's angle has to add up to 180, the other angle is 180-79-69. This gives 32. So angle E is 32 degrees. Since they are parallel, that means that E equals to D. That means that D is 32, so 32 is now the answer.

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The common difference is simply the constant we add/subtract each time. In this case, the common difference is 3/2 as can be seen from the recursive formula. In other words, each new n will be 3/2 larger than the previous.

The answer is A.

If g(x) is a linear function such that g(-3) = 2 and g(1) = -4, find g(7).
eimsori [14]
<h3>Answer:   -13</h3>

=======================================

Explanation:

g(-3) = 2 means x = -3 and y = 2 pair up together to form the point (-3,2)

g(1) = -4 means we have the point (1,-4)

Find the slope of the line through the two points (-3,2) and (1,-4)

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (-4-2)/(1-(-3))

m = (-4-2)/(1+3)

m = -6/4

m = -3/2

m = -1.5

The general slope intercept form y = mx+b turns into y = -1.5x+b after replacing m with -1.5

Plug in (x,y) = (-3,2) which is one of the points mentioned earlier and we end up with this new equation:  2 = -1.5*(-3) + b

Let's solve for b

2 = -1.5*(-3)+b

2 = 4.5 + b

2-4.5 = 4.5+b-4.5 .... subtract 4.5 from both sides

-2.5 = b

b = -2.5

Therefore, y = mx+b becomes y = -1.5x-2.5 meaning the g(x) function is g(x) = -1.5x-2.5

The last step is to plug in x = 7 and compute

g(x) = -1.5*x - 2.5

g(7) = -1.5*7 - 2.5

g(7) = -10.5 - 2.5

g(7) = -13
