a) Simply do 0.135(13.5%)*550 to get that his rent increases by $74.25.

b) Simply do 550+74.25 to get that his new rent is $624.25.

c) 624.25/550 = 1.135, or 100%+13.5%, the amount his rent increased.

Answer:

A. $74.25

B. $624.25

C. 1.135, and this is a connection to part a because it's what we multiplied 550 by to get our new rent.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Shawn pays $550 per month for rent, and he has a 13.5% increase, we can multiply 550 by 1+\frac{13.5}{100} to get our new number.

1+0.135=1.135

550\cdot1.135=624.25

This is the new monthly rent, part B. To find Part A, let's subtract 550 from thi number.

624.25-550=74.25

Now, for part C, let's divide 624.25 by 550.

624.25\div550 = 1.135

If you notice, 1.135 is the same number we multiplied 550 by to get our new cost, and as a percent, 1.135 is 113.5%.

Hope this helped!

Answer in factored form x^2+11x+7
KATRIN_1 [288]
X² <span>+ 11x + 7

because 7 is a prime number, this doesn't factor prettily. you'll want to use the quadratic formula; if you aren't familiar with it, i'd either research it or look it up in your textbook, because it's clunky and not easily understood in this format:

(-b </span>± √((b)² - 4ac))/(2a)

in your equation x² + 11x + 7 ... a = 1, b = 11, and c = 7. what you do is you take the coefficients of every term, then plug it into your equation:
(-11 ± √((11)² - 4(1)(7))/(2(1))

not pretty, i know. but, regardless, you can simplify it:
(-11 ± √((11)² - 4(1)(7))/(2(1))
(-11 ± √(121 - 28))/2
(-11 ± √93)/2

and you can't simplify it further. -11 isn't divisible by 2, and 93 doesn't have a perfect square that you can take out from beneath the radical. the ± plus/minus symbol indicates that you have 2 answers, so you can write them out separately:

(x - (-11 - √93)/2) and (x + (-11 - √93)/2)

they look confusing, but those are your two factors. they can be simplified just slightly by changing the signs in the middle due to the -11:

(x + (11 + √93)/2) (x - (11 - √93)/2)

and how these would read, just in case the formatting is too confusing for you: x plus the fraction 11 + root 93 divided by 2. the 11s and root 93s are your numerator, 2s are your denominator.
