By what percent will a fraction increase if its numerator is increased by 60% and its denominator is decreased by 20%?

1 answer:

7 0

Lets just use $\frac{10}{20}$ for an example. If the number is increased by 60% and the denominator is decreased by 20% we get the new fraction being: $\frac{16}{16}$ . Since then new one is equal to 1, and the original is equal to $\frac{1}{2}$ , we see that this manipulation of the fraction causes an increase of 100%.

What is the vertex of the graph of y = −1(x − 2)2 + 3

Alona [7]

$Vertex: \ (2,3)$

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The vertex form of the equation of a parabola is given by the following form:

$f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k \\ \\ Where: \\ \\ a:Leading \ Coefficient \\ \\ (h,k):Vertex \ of \ the \ parabola$

In this exercise, we have the following equation:

$y=-(x-2)^2+3$

From here, we can conclude that:

$Leading \ coefficient: \ -1 \\ \\ Vertex: \ (2,3)$

Since the leading coefficient is less than zero, the parabola open downward. So, the graph is shown below and the vertex has been indicated.

Answer:

The correct option is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given number is

$\frac{5}{11}$

Where 5 is dividend and 11 is divisor.

Since dividend is less than divisor we add a decimal place and the first zero. Notice the decimal point which has appeared on the answer line and by the dividend. It does not appear anywhere else.

Now the dividend is 50. Divide the number by divisor.

$11\times 4=44$
