The right multiplier is 1.03. Because x*1.03=x*(1+.03)=x+.03x
And .03x is exactly  3% of x.

The multiplier would be 1.03. You are increasing the original amount, x, by 3% To increase a number by a certain percentage you take the percent it's being added times the number, and then add that to the original. So 100% of x + 3% of x = 1x + 0.03x = 1.03x. The original amount, x, is multiplied by 1.03, so 1.03 is the multiplier you would use.

What is the length of BD?
Ket [755]

Answer: BD = 9 units

Step-by-step explanation:

ABQ and CDQ are congruent triangles. That means their angle measures are the same but their lengths may be proportional.

19.2 / 32 = 0.6

15 * 0.6 = 9

So the length of side BD is 9 units.
