Answer:

Part A: Number 3 increased by 250% = 10.5

Part B: Number 3 decreased by 100% = 0

Part C: Number 3 decreased by 150% = -1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the increase or decrese

Let the original number is x and percentage increase or decrese is r%

So, of the number x is increased by r %:

The increase or the decrease will be ⇒ x *\frac{r}{100}

The number after the increase will be x+ x *\frac{r}{100} = x( 1+\frac{r}{100} )

The number after the decrease will be x- x *\frac{r}{100} = x( 1-\frac{r}{100} )

For the g iven question:

Part A: What is 3 increased by 250%?

x=3 , r =250 ⇒ 3( 1+\frac{250}{100} ) = 3 * 3.5 = 10.5

Part B: What is 3 Decreased by 100%?

x=3 , r =100⇒ 3( 1-\frac{100}{100} ) = 3 * 0 = 0

Part C: What is 3 Decreased by 150%?

x=3 , r =100⇒ 3( 1-\frac{150}{100} ) = 3 * -0.5 = -1.5

A tortoise is walking in the desert. It walks at a speed of 5 meters per minute for 62.5 meters. For how many minutes does it wa
Sergio [31]
The question is asking for how many minutes it walks. Since it walks 5 meter per minute and walks 62.5 meters, you have to divide 62.5 by 5 to get how many minutes the tortoise walks. 62.5 divide by 5 is 12.5. in minutes, 0.5 is 30 seconds, therefore the tortoise walked for 12 minutes and 30 seconds or 12 1/2 minutes.

What is the solution to the following system of equations? x − 4y = 6 2x + 2y = 12 (0, 10) (10, 0) (6, 0) (0, 6)
frozen [14]

Answer:

(6,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system has equations:

x-4y=6

2x+2y=12

Multiply the top equation by 2 to get:

2x-8y=12

2x+2y=12

Subtract the top equation form the bottom equation to get:

2x-2x+2y--8y=12-12

\implies 10y=0

\implies y=0

Put y=0 into x-4y=6

x-4*0=6

\implies x=6

Therefore the solution is (6,0)
