The decrease was 27%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Old value = $980

New value = $720

Decrease = Old value - New value

Decrease=980-720=\$260

Percent decrease = \frac{Decreased/ amount}{Old value}*100

Percent\ decrease=\frac{260}{980}*100\\Percent\ decrease=0.265*100\\Percent\ decrease= 26.5\%

Rounding off to near whole percent

Percent decrease = 27%

The decrease was 27%.

wolverine [178]

Answer:

x^4 - 14x^2 - 40x - 75.

Step-by-step explanation:

As complex roots exist in conjugate pairs the other zero is -1 - 2i.

So in factor form we have the polynomial function:

(x - 5)(x + 3)(x - (-1 + 2i))(x - (-1 - 2i)

= (x - 5)(x + 3)( x + 1 - 2i)(x +1 + 2i)

The first 2 factors  = x^2 - 2x - 15 and

( x + 1 - 2i)(x +1 + 2i) = x^2 + x + 2ix + x + 1 + 2i - 2ix - 2i - 4 i^2

=  x^2 + 2x + 1 + 4

= x^2 + 2x + 5.

So in standard form we have:

(x^2 - 2x - 15 )(x^2 + 2x + 5)

= x^4  + 2x^3 + 5x^2 - 2x^3 - 4x^2 - 10x - 15x^2 - 30x - 75

= x^4 - 14x^2 - 40x - 75.

What is the measure of ZB?​
brilliants [131]

Answer:

∠ B = 116°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180° , that is

∠ B + 28° + 36° = 180°

∠ B + 64° = 180° ( subtract 64° from both sides )

∠ B = 116°

Is this right?
Mumz [18]

Answer:

Q1.

AC is the greatest side, therefore is hypotenuse. AB and BC are legs.

B is 90 deg as the two legs cross at this point.

<u>Ratios:</u>

  • sin = opposite / hypotenuse
  • cos = adjacent / hypotenuse
  • tan = opposite / adjacent

BC is opposite to A and adjacent to C

AB is adjacent to A and opposite to C

  • sin A = cos C = 8/10 = 4/5
  • cos A = sin C = 6/10 = 3/5
  • tan A = cot C = 8/6 = 4/3
  • tan C = cot A = 6/8 = 3/4
