Since whole numbers are positive integers, then it follows that a positive integer multiplied by 1.2 will be greater than the original by 20%.

I can only use math to explain it. What is 100%?
100% = \frac{100}{100} 
percent means per 100.
so 120% = 120/100 = 1.2
120% of a whole number. For example 120% * 10 = \frac{120}{100} * 10 = 12
is it greater than 10.

A line passes through the points (2,21) and (8,27). Write a linear function rule in terms of x and y for
tatiyna
We have two points so we can find the gradient using y1-y2/x1-x2
gradient = 21-27/2-8
= 1
we know the form for any linear equation is y = mx + c
we have m and a point so we can substitute in point (2,21) to find c
21 = 1 x 2 + c
c = 19
therefore, the equation is y = x + 19

Simplify: square root 27x12 over 300x8
alex41 [277]

Answer:

10

-------------

3x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

First lets simplify what is inside the square root

300x8

---------------

27x12

3 * 100 x^8

------------------

3 *9 x^12

The 3's cancel  and we know a^b/ a^c = a^(b-c)

100/9 x^ (8-12)

100/9 x^-4

sqrt( 100/9 x^-4)

Put the negative exponent in the denominator and make it positive

sqrt( 100 / (9x^4) )

We know that sqrt( a / b) = sqrt(a) / sqrt( b)

sqrt(100)

----------------

sqrt( 9x^4)

10

-------------

3x^2

Mattie is making a collar for her dog. She needs to buy some chain,a clasp, and a name tag. She wants the chain to be 40 centime
Fantom [35]

Answer:the total cost of the collar is $5.11

Step-by-step explanation:

To make a collar for her dog, she needs to buy some chain,a clasp, and a name tag.

The length of the chain that she wants to buy is 40 centimeters.

1000 centimeters = 1 meter

40 centimeters = 40/1000 = 0.04 meters.

One meter of chain costs $9.75. Therefore, 0.04 meters of chain would cost

0.04 × 9.75 = $0.39

The clasp is $1.29 and the name tag is $3.43. Therefore, the total cost of the collar would be

0.39 + 1.29 + 3.43 = $5.11
