ValentinkaMS [17]3 years ago

Answer:

The single decimal multiplier used to increase by 18% followed by a  12% decrease is 0.21.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'x' be the number

As first the number has to be increased by 18%

so

Step 1: write the percentage '18%' in decimal form

18% = 0.18    

Step 2: For percentage increases: add the decimal to 1

1 + 0.18 = 1.18    

Step 3: Multiply the number x by the multiplier, found in Step 2

x × 1.18 = 1.18x

<u><em>NEXT WE HAVE TO DECREASE 1.18x by 12%</em></u>

Apply the same method but with a number 1.18x

  • Write the percentage '12%' in decimal form

12% = 0.12

  • For percentage decreases: subtract the decimal to 1

1 - 0.18 = 0.18

  • Multiply the number 1.18x by the multiplier, found in Previous step

1.18x × 0.18 = 0.21x

Therefore, the single decimal multiplier used to increase by 18% followed by a  12% decrease is 0.21.

A linear model is given for the data in the table: y=1.25x+2.
Fed [463]

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that A linear model is given for the data in the table: y=1.25x+2.

Let us write observed values for each x and also the predicted values as per equation.

x            2     3        4      8    10      16    20    24    Total

y((O)      3      4        7     12   16      22   28    30

y(P)     4.5   5.75      7     12   14.5   22   27    32

DEv    1.5    1.75      0       0     1.5     0      1       2     7 75

where y(0) represents observed y or y in the table given

y(P) gives values of y predicted as per the equation 1.25x+2

Dev represents the absolute difference

Hence answer is option

A.7.75

postnew [5]

Answer:

Cost = 40.00 + 26.00c + 15.00b

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c = number of canoe rentals

and b = number of bicycle rentals. Then

   Annual pass = 40.00

Canoe rentals = 26.00c

Bicycle rentals = 15.00b

        Total cost = 40.00 + 26.00c + 15.00b

What are the coordinates of point P on the coordinate grid below?
Alik [6]

If you look carefully at the grid, you will see that each increment is by 1/8.

That means that for the x-coordinate of P, you can count from -4/8 to get -5/8.

For the y-coordinate, you can count up from 0 to get 3/8.

Then, the answer is (-5/8, 3/8), or the third answer.
